The Dangers of Ticks

The presence of ticks can place your pets and family in danger. Like any other pest, they can transmit diseases that if not handled can lead to death. Ticks are nasty blood feeders and they are mostly found in animals such as our pets.

Why should you be concerned about ticks? Like mosquitoes, ticks are transmitters of disease. Tick-borne disease is extremely dangerous, because they affect tens of thousands of individuals throughout the United States every year. Unlike mosquitoes, ticks do not grab a blood meal and go on their way. Ticks have beak-like projections which plunge into the skin of the host. Based on its type, a tick may feed on the host’s blood for hours, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne diseases include lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky Mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash infection, tick-borne relapsing the fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the widest array of disease-causing organisms.

Ticks are ectoparasites that live on the blood of mammals, including humans.

For most people, getting in contact with ticks can cause mild irritation to severe rashes and fevers accompanied by aches and pains.

Extreme cases can even result in respiratory arrest and other forms of life threatening shock reactions. The aggravation of tick bites can be prevented through knowledge of tick biology and habitats as well as methods of tick control.

There are seventy (70) species of ticks in Australia. Tick-borne microorganisms exist which can spread infection and cause allergies that could occasionally be life-threatening.

Your chances of disturbing the tick increase by scratching it or trying to remove it, often leading to the injection of toxic saliva. That is what can cause allergies. In some cases, these may be perilous, and very rarely, cause paralysis and fatality.

How do you get rid of ticks at home?

There are many preventive measures you can do to get rid of ticks if you catch the problem early enough.

Here’s reminders to get a tick-free home:

Garden Maintenance

It’s important to maintain garden foliage trimmed back from verandas, pathways, clotheslines and unique zones regularly. Reduce dense ground covers and prevent a huge amount of lead mulch/organic matter and wines that cover fences.

Personal Protection

When working in the garden or outside, it’s important to wear protective clothing. Put on a long-sleeve shirt, long pants a hat and boots. You may also want to employ a personal insect repellent to any areas exposed.

Using Approved Pesticides and Insecticides Only

The active constituent pesticide is Bifenthrin, a synthetic pyrethroid. This product is diluted with water before being applied to the leaves and grass of your garden. Treatment may also include the application of the insecticide onto garden furniture and the exterior of your house. This treatment will provide a knockdown of the ticks in your garden at the time of treatment.
