Ticks tend to build up in Redcliffe yards with long grass, thick garden beds, leaf litter or a fence line backing onto a park, reserve or coastal scrub. They wait on grass and low plants for a person or pet to brush past, so yards that back onto open space usually see more tick activity than a small, mowed suburban block.
Tick treatment focuses on the areas ticks are most likely to be waiting, including the edges of the lawn, garden beds, fence lines and any long grass or reserve border on the property. The crew we book treats these areas directly, then checks back over paths and areas closer to the house where pets and kids spend the most time.
Keeping grass mowed, clearing leaf litter and trimming back plants along a reserve fence line all help keep tick numbers down between visits. If you or a pet find a tick attached, removing it and watching the area is a matter for a vet or a doctor rather than the pest booking line, and any signs of feeling unwell after a bite should go straight to a doctor.

If your Redcliffe property backs onto a park, reserve or coastal scrub and you spend a lot of time in the garden, check yourself and any pets over after time outside, since a tick is far easier to deal with when it is found early. The crew can talk you through what areas of the yard tend to hold the most tick activity on a property like yours.
