Exterior Pest Control Tips
Blood-sucking fleas and ticks pose potential harm to your family and pets. They hide in your lawn and can cause problems from simple skin irritation to spreading disease. Control fleas and ticks in your lawn with these simple tips:
-
Mow it right. Mowing your lawn to the proper height reduces flea and tick hang-outs.
-
Avoid over-watering. Fleas and ticks prefer moist environments.
-
Keep it clean. Neatness counts when it comes to eliminating habitats for fleas and ticks to hide and lay eggs. Remove yard debris, such as piles of lumber, bricks and stones.
-
Protect your home. Establish a barrier around your home with a pesticide perimeter treatment. This treatment can prevent fleas and ticks from migrating into your home, although they can still hitch a ride on you or your pet.
-
Consider cedar. Cedar mulch repels fleas and ticks. Use it to border areas where your pet likes to play or rest to keep insects from migrating into those areas. Place cedar mulch along the edges of your yard to form a barrier.
-
Welcome predators. Make your landscape appealing to flea and tick predators by keeping grass mowed to the right height and incorporating native plants and ground covers. Birds also eat these insects, so consider feeders and fountains.
-
Let the sun shine. Both ticks and fleas like shady, moist areas. So don't be afraid to cut back branches and let the sun through.
