Mosquitoes and Ticks: The Hidden Dangers in Your Yard

As the warmer months arrive, mosquitoes and ticks become more than just a nuisance—they pose serious health risks. Understanding the dangers they bring and how to control them is key to protecting your family and pets.

Mosquitoes: More Than an Itchy Bite

Mosquitoes can carry dangerous diseases, including:

• West Nile Virus: Causes fever, headaches, and in severe cases, neurological issues.

• Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE): A rare but deadly virus that causes brain inflammation.

Breeding grounds: Mosquitoes lay eggs in stagnant water, such as in birdbaths, gutters, and puddles.

Ticks: Tiny but Dangerous

Ticks carry diseases like:

• Lyme Disease: Causes fatigue, fever, and joint pain.

• Anaplasmosis and Babesiosis: Bacterial infections with flu-like symptoms.

Tick habitats: They thrive in tall grass, wooded areas, and leaf piles.

Why DIY Treatments Often Fail

Store-bought sprays and repellents offer only temporary relief. DIY solutions:

• Rarely target breeding sites.

• Require constant reapplication.

• Don’t provide long-term protection.
