Ticks carry Lyme disease and other serious illnesses. XtermaPro provides professional tick treatment for properties in Toronto, Peterborough and surrounding areas protecting your family and pets.
The blacklegged tick (deer tick) is the primary Lyme disease vector in Ontario and has been expanding its range northward rapidly. They're found in wooded areas, tall grass, and gardens and are active in temperatures above 4°C, meaning spring and fall are active seasons as well as summer. Dog ticks are also common and while they don't carry Lyme disease, they can cause tick paralysis.
Signs of tick activity on your property:
Lyme disease causes serious long-term health problems if not treated promptly including joint pain, neurological symptoms, and chronic fatigue. Ontario's blacklegged tick population carrying Lyme has been growing. Other tick-borne conditions in Ontario include Anaplasmosis and tick paralysis. Early tick removal and property treatment are the best prevention.
Our tick treatment targets the leaf litter, low vegetation, and woodland edges where ticks are most concentrated. We apply targeted acaricide to tick harborage zones around the perimeter of your property particularly where lawn meets wooded areas or where wildlife traffic is heaviest. Treatment is highly effective at reducing tick populations in treated zones.
