Do you like investing time outside during fall? While these hotter seasons are an extraordinary time for you and your families to appreciate the outside, ticks will be there too, stowing away in the foliage of your backyard and prepare for a bite.
Why should you be concerned about ticks? Like mosquitoes, ticks are transmitters of disease. Tick-borne disease is extremely dangerous, because they affect tens of thousands of people throughout the United States every year. Unlike mosquitoes, ticks don’t grab a blood meal and go on their way. Ticks have beak-like projections which plunge to the skin of their host. Based on its type, a tick may feed the host’s blood for hours, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne diseases include lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky Mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash infection, tick-borne relapsing the fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the broadest array of disease-causing organisms.
Ticks have beak-like mouths that dive into the skin of their host. A tick may benefit in the host’s blood for quite a long time, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne diseases include lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash illness, tick-borne relapsing fever, and tularemia. Among all arthropods, ticks spread the best cluster of disease-causing organisms.
For most people, getting connected with ticks can cause mild irritation to severe rashes and fevers accompanied by aches and pains.
Based on the type of species, ticks can feed on their host’s blood for hours, days and even weeks. They also grew bigger because of the amount of blood that they consumed. They are voracious blood drinkers for they need huge blood meals in each phase of the growth.
In fact, there are 70 known species of ticks in Australia. That is why most homeowners do it in grooming their pets or cleaning their farms and environment to prevent these nasty crawlers infecting the animals. However, once they get in the household, a need for tick control ought to be taken into action.
Your chances of disturbing the tick increase by scratching it or attempting to eliminate it, often leading to the injection of toxic saliva. This is what can cause allergies. Sometimes, these can be perilous, and very rarely, cause paralysis and fatality.
There are several preventive measures you can do to get rid of ticks if you catch the problem early enough.
Here’s our to-do list for a tick-free home:
Keep your garden foliage trimmed and back from verandas, paths, clotheslines and other areas regularly. Reduce the dense ground covers and prevent large quantities of lead mulch/organic matter and wines that cover fences.
It is important to wear protective clothing when working in the backyard. Wear a long-sleeve shirt, long pants a hat and boots. You may also want to apply a personal insect repellent to any areas exposed.
The active ingredient pesticide is Bifenthrin, a synthetic pyrethroid. This product is diluted with water before being applied to the grass and foliage of your garden. Treatment may also include the application of this insecticide onto garden furniture and the exterior of your house. This treatment will provide a knockdown of the ticks in your garden at the time of treatment.
Nobody needs to handle ticks or lyme disease. They can infect your family and your pets’ well-being. It’s best to seek help from a group of licensed and accredited specialists who can get things right when it comes to pest management.
Another factor is when you notice pepper-like items that stick into your pets’ fur. If you are seeing engorged insects burrowed in your pet, it is the best advised to remove them immediately.
Treatment for ticks isn’t always the same for fleas. Maintain your families and pets safe with powerful tick treatment. This typically treats outdoor surroundings and lawn mulch areas with recommended pesticides.
