Many of New Jersey’s homeowners take pride in their lawns and property, but what good is a beautiful lawn if it isn’t livable? Enjoy your property to the fullest and improve its value by employing the tick control and prevention services of Greenwood Tree & Lawn. Although we are in Montville, NJ, we regularly serve clients in Morristown, NJ, and even as far south as Basking Ridge, NJ.

How Do I Know My Property Has Ticks?

If you see any of the following signs of a tick infestation on your property, call us right away:

• Overgrowth: If you have naturalistic parts of your property with tall grass or dense growth, those areas make the perfect hiding spot and breeding ground for ticks.
• Bites: If you find yourself with strange rashes or other new skin conditions, it could be a tick bite. Tick bites affect everyone differently, but a bullseye rash is a sure sign of Lyme disease.
• Diseases: Ticks can transmit a variety of diseases, most commonly Lyme disease. If a member of your household gets sick and you suspect a tick infestation, inform your doctor.
• Insects: New Jersey is home to four species of ticks: Longhorned, Deer, Lonestar, and American Dog ticks. These ticks look like small brown arachnids between the size of a poppy seed and a sesame seed.

How Do You Control the Ticks?

We exterminate and impede ticks by employing multiple tactics:

• Landscaping: We trim your landscaping and lawn in order to reduce the size of the ticks’ habitat.
• Locating: We find the places where ticks have nested in your yard.
• Eliminating: We treat the infested areas to kill the ticks without harming your landscape.
• Preventing: Our treatments discourage the return of ticks for a season.
