Yard Flea & Tick Spray in Memphis & Northern MS: Costs & Info

As far as tiny-but-powerful pests go, fleas and ticks might be near the top of your list. Their ability to carry and transmit deadly diseases is downright frightening and the fear that you might have them lurking in your own yard is enough to have you wondering if you should keep your family and pets inside.

But the truth is, you ought to be able to enjoy the outdoors. That’s why we’ll explore flea and tick control for your yard. With your yard properly protected, you don’t have to go on worrying about these pests.

Protecting Your Family Members (Including the 4-Legged Ones!)

We’ll get more into yard flea and tick spray and how it can protect your family, but first, let us offer a few pieces of advice.

First and foremost, it’s important to recognize that topical treatments for your pets, as advised by your vet, will go a long way in keeping your furry family members safe. It will also help reduce the chances of them bringing unwanted pests into your home with a free ride aboard their fur. The fact is, even if they’re not picking up fleas and ticks from your property, they could be getting them from somewhere else. That means it’s important to keep up with any recommendations your vet may make even if you’re treating your lawn for pests.

In addition, we’d also add that it never hurts to practice other cultural recommendations for keeping you and your family safe from pests (particularly ticks). The following tips will go a long way in exercising caution. 

  • Wear long sleeves and/or pants when walking on trails or through the woods.
  • Check your clothing and body after coming indoors. Ticks like to hide under the arms, in and around the ears, on the backs of knees, and in and around hair.
  • Avoid habitats where ticks thrive such as wooded areas or fields with tall grasses. If you can’t avoid these areas, be extra cautious about checking for ticks before going inside your home.
  • Take a shower as it can wash off unattached ticks.

Utilizing Yard Flea and Tick Spray

In addition to these cultural recommendations, you should also consider professional yard flea and tick spray which will target pests that have made their way onto your property, despite your best efforts.
