Why is Flea and Tick Control Important?
Fleas can pose a health threat to humans and animals. Their bites are painful, but they also can pass along serious risks of diseases such as Lyme disease and typhus.
Eradicating their presence is very important, and Simply Green makes it easy to do.
Tickborne Disease Descriptions
- Typhus is a disease ticks carry that is characterized by headaches, a purple rash and delirium
- Lyme disease leads to symptoms including fever, headache, fatigue, and a skin rash that if left untreated can spread to the joints, heart, and nervous system.
How to Prevent Fleas and Ticks in Your Yard
Fleas and ticks thrive in warm, moist climates, and even adult fleas and larvae can survive in below-freezing temperatures for up to six months.
The areas of your lawn most in danger are shady spots and under bushes and brush. You can help improve a flea and tick friendly environment by:
- Minimizing leaf litter. Be sure to rake up fallen leaves this season.
- Mow your lawn weekly during the growing season. Remove clippings to promote drier soil.
- Keep play equipment, patios, and decks away from bushes and low lying plants where ticks like to live for easy access to prey.
Avoiding Fleas and Ticks
Use caution when going to any area where fleas and ticks live. When you’re camping, hiking or doing yardwork, follow these simple steps to protect yourself.
- Wear long sleeves and/or pants when walking through the woods.
- Be extra diligent about checking your body and clothing for ticks.
- Take a shower and wash your clothing to help wash off unattached ticks.
