Tick Control FAQ for Kauai Homeowners

How often should Kauai homeowners get tick control?
Given Kauai's interior mount wai'ale'ale receives 450 inches of rain — wettest spot on earth, most homeowners benefit from tick control at least once a year. Year-round mold on north shore windward properties often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Kauai most need tick control?
Plantation-style homes throughout interior and north shore and Luxury vacation homes and condos in Po'ipu and Princeville are the most common home types in Kauai 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.
