Why Port Richmond Has a Ticks Problem
Port Richmond's tree-lined streets, proximity to Clove Lakes Park, and the nearby Staten Island Botanical Garden create ideal conditions for tick populations to thrive.

Why Choose Us for Tick Control in Port Richmond
Our tick control program targets the areas where ticks quest for hosts: tall grass margins, leaf litter, brush piles, stone walls, and the woodland edge where your yard meets natural areas. Technicians apply residual acaricide to these specific zones in a targeted band treatment, maximizing effectiveness while minimizing product use in open lawn areas. We also identify and advise on habitat modifications — like clearing leaf litter and trimming overgrown vegetation — that reduce tick harborage near the home. Seasonal follow-up applications in spring and late summer align with peak tick activity periods for maximum protection through the warmer months.
