Exterminator treating a property for ticks and insects
Lyme disease awareness

Tick Controlfor families and pets.

Lyme disease is potentially serious and can affect multiple bodily systems. It's transmitted to humans and animals by the feeding activities of certain ticks.

Of the 47 tick species established in California, six attach to humans with any regularity, but only the western black-legged tick is thought to be responsible for transmitting the spirochete that causes Lyme disease to people.

Ticks are most often picked up in tall grass, brush and leaf litter, and carried indoors by pets and people. That makes the edge of your property — where the lawn meets the wild — the place to focus.

Yosemite Pest Control can help your family stay tick-free. Call and we'll assess the property and recommend a treatment plan.

Foothill properties with oak, brush and wildlife carry more tick pressure. If you're seeing them on pets, call us.
