Beware of the Lone Star Tick

With warmer weather arriving across the Merrimack Valley, many residents are reporting an increase in Lone Star Tick sightings this season. Unlike traditional deer ticks, Lone Star Ticks are aggressive biters and are known to carry illnesses that can affect both people and pets.

At Mosquito 180, we’ve already seen a major increase in tick activity throughout North Andover, Andover, Methuen, and surrounding towns.

Here are a few things homeowners can do to help reduce tick activity around their property:
• Keep grass cut short
• Remove leaf litter and brush piles
• Treat shaded yard areas where ticks thrive
• Check pets and clothing after spending time outdoors

Our mosquito and tick control treatments are designed to help protect your yard all season long so your family can enjoy being outside again.

If you’ve been noticing more ticks this year, you’re definitely not alone.
