Where Ticks Hide on Your Property

Ticks are skilled survivors that thrive in specific environments around your home. Knowing where they live is the first step in effective management. Our trained technicians look for these key hotspots to target breeding grounds and reduce the tick population on your property.

Be on the lookout for ticks in these common areas:

• Tall Grass and Weeds: Unmowed areas at the edge of your lawn or property are prime locations for ticks to wait for a host.
• Leaf Litter and Yard Debris: Piles of damp leaves, grass clippings, and other organic debris create the perfect moist, sheltered environment for ticks.
• Wooded Areas and Shrubs: The borders between your lawn and woods, as well as dense ground cover and shrubbery, are common tick habitats.
• Under Decks and Porches: Shady, protected areas where wildlife like raccoons or opossums may rest can become infested with the ticks they carry.
• Stone Walls and Woodpiles: The gaps and crevices in old stone walls and stacked firewood offer ticks protection from the sun and predators.

By focusing on these problem areas, it is possible to significantly disrupt the tick life cycle and make your yard a less hospitable place for them.

Our Integrated Tick Control Process

At Rumble Pest Solutions, we use Integrated Pest Management (IPM) methodologies to deliver effective, long-term tick control. Our process is designed not just to treat the current problem but also to create a less inviting environment for future tick populations, all while keeping your family's well-being in mind.

• Property Inspection: We begin with a thorough inspection of your yard to identify tick habitats and high-risk areas like overgrown vegetation, leaf litter, and property borders.
• Targeted Treatment: We apply a treatment focused on the areas where ticks are most likely to live and breed. Our approach is designed to be effective against ticks at all life stages.

The Risks of DIY Tick Management

While it may seem convenient to use store-bought tick control products, they often fall short of providing complete protection. These solutions may only affect adult ticks, leaving eggs and nymphs behind to start a new infestation. This can create a false sense of security for your family.

Successfully managing the ticks common to Missouri requires specific knowledge of their habitats and life cycles. A professional technician knows precisely where to treat and how to disrupt their breeding patterns, something a general yard spray cannot accomplish. This expertise ensures a more effective and lasting result.

Most importantly, ticks pose a direct health risk to your family and pets. Relying on an incomplete DIY approach is not worth the danger. Professional service provides the assurance that the job is done correctly, significantly reducing the threat of tick-borne illnesses on your property.

FAQs About Tick Control in Springfield, MO

When is the peak tick season in Springfield, MO?

Tick season in Missouri can be long, often starting in March and lasting through October. The peak activity for most species occurs during the warmest months, from late spring through summer. However, it is possible to encounter ticks anytime the temperature is above freezing, so year-round awareness is important.

Is professional yard treatment for ticks safe for pets and children?

Yes. At Rumble Pest Solutions, we use treatments and methods that are safe for your family. We ask that you keep children and pets out of the treated area until it has had time to dry completely. Our technician will provide specific instructions to ensure everyone's safety after the service is complete.

How often do I need tick control treatments for my yard?

The frequency of treatments depends on the severity of the infestation and the specific characteristics of your property. For most homes in our area, we recommend a series of treatments throughout the peak tick season to maintain a protective barrier and disrupt their life cycle effectively.

What can I do to make my yard less attractive to ticks?

You can make a big difference by keeping your lawn mowed, removing leaf litter and yard debris, and creating a three-foot barrier of wood chips or gravel between your lawn and any wooded areas. Discouraging wildlife like deer and raccoons from entering your yard can also help reduce tick populations.
