This tick season, stay ahead with ATCO Pest Control! As temperatures rise and outdoor adventures beckon, it’s crucial to be aware of nature’s hidden dangers. Did you know ticks can transmit harmful pathogens in as little as 36 hours? That’s why we’re teaming up with the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) for Tick Awareness Week, May 5 – 11, 2024.
May is also Lyme Disease Awareness Month, with nearly half a million Americans diagnosed yearly. Awareness is growing, but only 26% actively follow prevention techniques. Let’s change that!
At ATCO Pest Control, we’re committed to eco-friendly solutions for your family and pets. Here are some tips for this tick season:
Use insect repellent with at least 20% DEET and wear light-colored, long-sleeved clothing.
Keep grass trimmed low to deter ticks.
Perform thorough tick checks after outdoor activities.
Clear overgrown vegetation to eliminate tick habitats.
For tick problems, reach out to our qualified pest control professionals. Let’s make safety a priority this tick season!
