Step-by-step tick control
Monthly inspections and treatments during peak tick season help keep populations down for more peace of mind. When you work with Aimix, here's what you can expect:
- Once you schedule your free tick inspection, our experts will walk the area and recommend the best treatment options for your home.
- When it's time for your scheduled service, a technician will identify the areas that need treatment. They will move any toys, pet bowls, and lawn furniture out of the way and make sure to avoid water sources and gardens before they spray your yard for ticks.
- A barrier tick treatment will be applied to areas where ticks reside, such as tall grass, weeds, transition zones where the lawn borders a forest, overgrown areas, and footpaths or walking trails.
- Tick control applications can last anywhere from four to six weeks. We’ll make sure to schedule your next inspection before we leave.
How to get rid of ticks
Monthly inspections and treatments during peak tick season help keep populations down for more peace of mind. When you work with Aimix, here's what you can expect:
- Ticks are found throughout the United States, typically in areas with tall grass, vegetation, and wilderness. If you find yourself as an unwilling host for one of these pests after spending time outdoors, it’s best to remove it immediately. To remove a tick, carefully grasp the tick with tweezers near the head and close to the skin. Then, pull upward with steady, even pressure to remove the tick. Finally, clean the bite area with soap and water once the tick is removed.
- If these pests find their way indoors, they can be much harder to remove. Some ticks can use carpets similar to how they use grass outside. They can lay their eggs within the carpet fibers, couch cushions, and pet bedding–waiting to latch onto the next host once they hatch. To kill ticks in your home, you can wash bedding in hot water, steam carpets and area rugs, and vacuum frequently. It's also best to steam-clean hard-to-reach areas like baseboards, cracks, and crevices.
Can you DIY tick control?
- When it comes to tick control, DIY solutions are not always the best option. Ticks can be hard to manage and even trickier to spot. Our technicians are trained to find all their hiding places and prevent them from coming back. That’s why it’s best to leave your home in the hands of our experts at Aimix and schedule your free tick inspection today.
Tick prevention
- Tick prevention is key to enjoying a pest-free summer. When outdoors, it's best to keep exposed skin to a minimum by wearing long pants, long sleeves, close-toed shoes, and tucking pant legs into your socks or shoes. Wearing an EPA-registered repellent such as DEET and light-colored clothing can help repel ticks and allow you to spot them easily.
- Creating a tick-safe zone by cutting tall grass and trimming vegetation along trails and walking paths can make your property less desirable for ticks. Make sure to keep vegetation, such as vines, away from the exterior of the home to prevent ticks from finding their way indoors. Removing wood or rock piles, trash, and seed waste can help discourage animals that are hosts for ticks from entering your property.
