TICKS

The most prominent danger ticks pose is the transmission of Lyme disease. Ticks infected with the disease can pose a serious danger to our pets & families.

What Is Lyme Disease?

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection. It can lead to several health problems if left untreated. When diagnosed early, patients are treated with antibiotics and usually recover rapidly.

Identifying Ticks

South Carolina is home to three common types of ticks:

  • Brownish in color
  • Can have a rust or brown-red hue after feeding

American Dog Tick

Treat-Protect-Control

Ticks inhabit densely wooded areas and relocate via their host. They don’t thrive indoors and arrive inside via human or pet carriers.

Having a trusted service provider makes things so much easier. I know that they’re going to be there. I know that they are going to show when they are supposed to. I know that they are going to make sure they take care of the problem for me.

I was very impressed with the immediate response/ same day service yesterday, and Kevin was great! So happy were not hearing any more noises in the attic.
