Southeast Georgia is the ideal, mild climate for ticks. During the spring and summer, ticks are at their peak of activity. Swift and efficient tick extermination is crucial since these tiny pests are known to transmit diseases through their bites. Since 1985, Active Pest Control has provided effective and safe tick control in Georgia.

When Do You Need Tick Control?

It is vital to keep ticks away from your home or business since they are capable of spreading disease. Ticks are most active during the warmer months of early spring through late summer. During mild winters, however, tick activity is still possible. Fortunately, Active Pest Control is available for year-round tick prevention to ensure you and your loved ones are safe. 

Active Pest Control’s tick removal process was designed to quickly and effectively eliminate ticks from your home or business. When you call, our certified technicians will follow these steps to make certain that you have a tick-free environment:

  • Thorough inspection of your property for signs of a tick infestation.
  • Targeted pest control treatments with environmentally friendly methods.
  • Custom pest management plans to prevent ticks in the future.

 

Tick Removal for YOUR HOME

Identifying Ticks

Ticks are oval-shaped pests with eight legs. A tick is often black, reddish-brown, or brown. They are usually flat but will bloat to a round shape after feeding. Their size can vary, measuring less than ¼ inch, but can grow up to ½ inch when they are fully engorged. There are many types of tick species, but the most common in the area include the lone star tick, the black-legged tick, and the American dog tick. Their mouths have a barb-like capability, which allows them to attach firmly to their host’s skin – proving for a challenging removal once they are attached.

Tick Control You Can Trust

Ticks are known to transmit multiple diseases to humans and animals, which can lead to long-term health issues for the infected individuals. Reliable tick prevention measures, such as those offered by Active Pest Control, can help mitigate the risk of tick bites and the potential transmission of tick-borne illnesses.

Why are There So Many Ticks in Southeast Georgia?

Southeast Georgia is an ideal habitat for ticks as they thrive in warm and humid environments. Ticks can certainly be a nuisance, but the more pressing issue is their ability to carry multiple diseases that can potentially be transmitted to humans and pets. Some diseases that ticks are responsible for transmitting include Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. These diseases can lead to major health issues if not treated and are known to cause life-long health complications.
