Tick Yard Treatment in Minneapolis: Why it’s Worth the Money

4 MINUTE READ

The tinier something is, the easier it is to ignore, right?

A tiny hole in your pocket. A few tiny ticks in your backyard.

But when that hole in your pocket gets bigger, your $50 bill can fall out. (OK, so it’s a $5 bill, but still.)

And those tiny ticks are a big problem, spreading serious disease.

Do yard tick treatments work?

Here’s a look at tick yard treatment in Minneapolis.

First, How Do You Know If You Have Ticks?

Unless your yard is a sunny expanse of dirt, you could easily have ticks.

Ticks like leafy areas that are damp and shady. While you’re more likely to encounter ticks in woods or fields with tall grass, ticks hang out anywhere they can find a host to hop aboard. That includes your yard.

TickTicks lurk on the tips of grasses and shrubs, waiting for a host to brush up against their spot. Then, they hop on board.

But they’re sneaky little hiders, hanging out where your yard borders wooded areas, or shady spots where damp leaves and yard debris accumulate.

They’re easy to ignore. But while they quietly lurk in your yard’s shady spots, they’re pretty gross, feeding on blood and spreading disease.

Time for Minneapolis Tick Control Service

Is tick yard treatment worth the money?

Yes, if you want to protect your family and pets against disease.

A tick quickly cuts into its host’s skin, then inserts its feeding tube. It sucks the blood slowly for several days until it’s full.

As ticks feed, small amounts of their saliva may enter the host, and that’s how they transmit diseases like Lyme Disease, the most common disease spread by ticks In Minnesota.

The average number of reported Lyme Disease cases has more than doubled here over the past 10 years. Symptoms include fever, chills, fatigue, body aches, headache, neck stiffness, and swollen lymph nodes.

If Lyme Disease goes untreated, neurological problems can set in weeks, months, or even years after infection.

It’s a great reason to hire a Minneapolis tick control service to kill these dangerous pests.
