Our Tick Control Process

Habitat Assessment

We identify tick activity zones — wooded edges, leaf piles, tall grass, stone walls, and garden borders where ticks quest.

Treatment

Low-volume misting of EPA-registered tick control product is applied to identified habitat areas, focusing on the zone where lawn meets woods and landscaping borders.

Habitat Reduction Recommendations

We advise on reducing tick habitat — clearing leaf litter, creating wood chip or gravel barriers, and moving woodpiles away from the home.

04

Scheduled Follow-up

Retreatment every 4–6 weeks during tick season maintains protection.

Tick Control FAQ for El Paso Homeowners

How often should El Paso homeowners get tick control?
Given El Paso's extreme summer heat exceeding 100°f with very low humidity (often below 15%), most homeowners benefit from tick control at least once a year. Post-dust-storm exterior cleaning (year-round but worst in spring) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in El Paso most need tick control?
Adobe and stucco ranch homes throughout El Paso County and Territorial and Spanish colonial-style homes in historic neighborhoods are the most common home types in El Paso and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
When is tick season?
Deer ticks (the primary Lyme disease vector) are active April through November, with peak activity in spring and fall. American dog ticks are most active in spring and early summer. Some tick activity occurs even in winter above freezing.
How long does tick spray last?
Professional tick treatments last 4–6 weeks. Retreatment every 4–6 weeks during the active season maintains protection. Treatment after heavy rain may need to happen sooner.
Do I need to treat inside my home for ticks?
Ticks rarely establish indoors. Treatment focus should be on outdoor areas where ticks quest — yard edges, garden borders, and wooded areas. If you find ticks indoors, the source is likely being brought in on people, pets, or wildlife.
Is tick spray safe for children and pets?
Allow the treated area to dry for 1–2 hours before children and pets access it. We also offer organic botanical treatments for families preferring chemical-free options.
