Protect Your Home and Family from Lyme Disease with Pest Pro
Did you know that approximately 476,000 Americans contract Lyme disease every year? This potentially debilitating illness is not just a risk in wooded areas; 74% of infected ticks are found in residential spaces like backyards. With Lyme disease causing symptoms ranging from skin rashes and joint pain to severe complications like heart disease, it’s crucial to understand how to protect your loved ones.
Understanding the Risks of Lyme Disease
Ticks, particularly infected nymphs, are the primary carriers of Lyme disease. They thrive in shaded, moist environments such as:
- Leaf litter
- Woodpiles
- Mulch piles
- Tall grass
Children and the elderly are especially vulnerable to tick bites, making it essential to take proactive measures in and around your home.
How to Reduce Tick Risks in Your Yard
Protecting your family starts with some simple precautions:
- Use EPA-approved tick repellents.
- Perform tick checks after spending time outdoors.
- Wear long sleeves and tuck your pants into your socks.
- Shower immediately after coming inside.
However, these measures can only go so far. For long-term, effective tick control, consider Pest Pro's innovative LymeShield System.
What is the LymeShield System?
The LymeShield System is a revolutionary approach to tick management, designed to stop Lyme disease at its source. Here’s how it works:
- Integrated Tick Management: Our expert pest professionals create a customized plan to reduce tick populations in your yard.
- Oral Vaccine Pellets for Mice: Since mice are a primary source of Lyme disease bacteria for ticks, these pellets prevent mice from becoming infected. Healthy mice mean fewer infected ticks!
- Secure Application Stations: The low-profile stations are designed to be safe for pets and only allow access to small animals like mice. The system requires servicing just once every three months.
With the LymeShield System, you can reclaim your yard and protect your family year-round.
