Cape Cod Tick Treatments

There are several misconceptions about how to treat for ticks in your Cape Cod yard. One key distinction is whether you should treat your lawn for ticks or the surrounding brush, and if so, what products should be used. 

Here's the first key point to know about how to treat for ticks on Cape Cod: not just anyone can do it. In Massachusetts, you must be a licensed applicator, with certification in all required regulatory categories that the state mandates. In other words, there are restrictions put in place - but it's all in the name of safety.

Second, the industry standard recommends against treating your lawn as an adequate method of Cape Cod tick control. Remember, ticks in your Cape Cod yard are traveling from the surrounding brush. As an experienced and licensed applicator, Burgess Pest Management creates a barrier around your lawn that ticks don't like to cross. This is why we begin treatments in April - to create that barrier ASAP!

Third, the products used to treat for ticks on Cape Cod are very important. At Burgess Pest Management, all our products are registered and approved for use by the EPA. We also use a combination of organic tick control products on Cape Cod and plant botanicals. The low-impact treatment dries within minutes, yet stays effective for weeks.
