Control ticks: the Ehrlich way

For our tick control service, an Ehrlich technician will identify the areas in your yard where ticks are most likely to be present. A barrier treatment using EPA-registered products will be applied to all places where ticks rest, including:

  • Perimeter vegetation
  • Weeds, tall grasses, shrubs
  • Lowermost tree limbs (no more than 10 feet high)
  • Ground cover such as ivy, grasses in cool, damp or shady areas, and other ornamental plants
  • Mulch and landscape beds next to your home
  • Transition zones where the lawn borders a wooded area
  • Areas of leaf litter and overgrown vegetation
  • Eaves and overhangs
  • Accessible areas beneath decks and porches

Your Ehrlich technician will also offer recommendations to help eliminate potential tick habitat areas in your yard. If you're curious about tick control service costs, our team can provide a detailed breakdown tailored to your property and treatment needs.

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to treat for ticks?

Ticks come out when the weather gets warmer. However, for season-long protection, we recommend our monthly treatment. The number of months that service is conducted will vary based on your location. Contact the experts at Ehrlich to learn more.

Does the tick control service protect my pets?

Yes! Pets can contract tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease. Our tick control service is safe for pets and will control these biting pests in your yard, giving you the freedom to worry less about your furry friends contracting serious diseases. We still recommend treating your pets as necessary per your vet’s recommendations.

Is tick control only used in the yard?

Your Technician will treat your yard, focusing on the areas where ticks reside. Objects such as children’s toys, pet food bowls, and lawn furniture will be moved out of the treatment area. Your Technician will also avoid applications to herb/vegetable gardens and food preparation areas (grills, bars, etc.).

When are ticks most active?

Ticks are more common in the warmer months but can remain active in cooler weather. They are present as long as the temperature is above freezing and there is no snow on the ground. Ticks particularly like to hide in leaf litter to keep warm, so be careful when cleaning up your leaves in the fall.

What is the best control for ticks?

The most effective way to control ticks is a combination of professional treatments and habitat modifications. Keeping tall grass trimmed, removing leaf litter, and using a tick control service can help reduce the tick population and lower the risk of tick-borne diseases.

How much does tick control cost?

The cost of tick control services varies depending on the size of your property, the level of tick infestation, and the treatment plan selected. Contact Ehrlich for a customized quote based on your needs.

Do exterminators get rid of ticks?

Yes, a tick exterminator can help to reduce and manage tick infestations using professional treatments. Our technicians use targeted applications to control ticks at all life stages and prevent future infestations.

What is the most effective way to get rid of ticks?

The best way to tackle ticks is with professional tick spraying services and smart yard maintenance. Regular treatments and reducing tick-friendly areas can help keep them away. Call Ehrlich Pest Control to protect your home today!

What do ticks hate the most?

Ticks avoid certain scents like citrus, cedar oil, and some plant-based repellents. However, these solutions may not be enough to control a tick infestation. For long-term and safe protection, our professional tick control services can help.
