  2. In summer, all the bugs that have been dormant through the winter months, like ticks and mosquitoes are now out and about in your yard. Learning a bit about ticks and mosquitoes and how to prevent them can help you have a safe and healthy time outdoors.

  3. Mosquito and Tick-Borne Illnesses Zika virus, West Nile virus, dengue fever, and malaria are just a few common viruses that can be transmitted from mosquitoes to humans. ·        Ticks also carry a host of illnesses that can be passed on to humans through a bite. Anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis, and Babesiosis are just a few but Lyme disease is probably the best known.

  4. Mosquito and Tick-Borne Illnesses Some common symptoms of Lyme disease are fever, chills, sweats, headache, achy joints, mental fog, and even neurological changes that can last for years to come. Lyme disease attacks nearly every system in the body so keeping ticks out of your yard is worth the effort.

  5. How to Spot Tick and Mosquito Risks in Your Own Yard Mosquitoes need water to breed, specifically, untreated still water. This means that kiddie pool that has been sitting idle for a week could quickly become a breeding ground for mosquitoes. ·        It is important to check your property and dump any standing water that could be a breeding ground for mosquitoes. This will help reduce the population and help keep your family safer.

  6. How to Spot Tick and Mosquito Risks in Your Own Yard ·        Ticks prefer wooded areas or areas of very thick brush where they are not going to be disturbed while they mate and laying their eggs. ·        ·        It is also good idea to clear up areas with tall grass, standing brush, or any debris to help to remove potential breeding grounds.

  7. How to Treat Your Yard for Mosquitoes and Ticks There are many solutions that are touted as the best, but they often involve harsh chemicals that may be dangerous for your pets and your family. ·        ·        You may also want to use citronella candles to help keep mosquitoes away from your family while you are outside. You can also use bug spray on your legs and clothing to help deter these pests from biting.

  8. If you want to treat your entire yard but are unsure about using chemicals, Landscape Solutions has an organic treatment that can help to treat and control infestations of both mosquitoes and ticks to help make your yard safe for your family and pets. ·        ·        Our “Swat Team” treatment provides both targeted and broad treatment that can help wipe out current pests and prevent more from appearing.
