You hope to safeguard against ticks (and Lyme disease). You don’t want your McHenry County yard coated with chemicals.
You’re in luck, if you reside in McHenry County. The Mosquito Guy provides a green, non-toxic tick repellent yard treatment. This organic insecticide will keep you and your loved ones protected from the threat of ticks and Lyme disease for up to 30 days.
Tick numbers are heading up in McHenry County, Wisconsin and northern Illinois. Mild winters and a large deer herd (which carries ticks) are often cited. The peril of Lyme disease, transmitted by the pinhead-size deer tick, has increased at the same time.
Don’t wait until you find a tick crawling on your (or someone else’s) body to take action. Ticks are most abundant from late spring to mid-summer, and again in fall - in other words, the months when we’re most likely to be outdoors amidst them.
The Mosquito Guy’s green tick repellent formula is made of almost half natural cedar oil. Its other active ingredient is phenethyl propionate, a natural pesticide made from peanuts. The organic, non-toxic application dries clear and doesn’t hurt bees, butterflies or earthworms.
It does, however, repel ticks … which gives you peace of mind as your children and pets play outside amid a chemical-free environment.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 300,000 Americans contract Lyme disease annually. If you have ticks in your yard in McHenry County, Wisconsin or northern Illinois or are bothered about the risk, contact The Mosquito Guy.
