You hope to guard against ticks (and Lyme disease). You don’t want your Lake in the Hills yard covered with chemicals.
You’re in luck, if you reside in Lake in the Hills. The Mosquito Guy offers a safe, non-toxic tick repellent yard treatment. This organic insecticide will keep you and your family protected from the threat of ticks and Lyme disease for up to 30 days.
Tick populations are increasing in Lake in the Hills, Wisconsin and northern Illinois. Mild winters and a sizable deer herd (which carries ticks) are often blamed. The threat of Lyme disease, transmitted by the pinhead-size deer tick, has grown simultaneously.
Don’t postpone until you identify a tick crawling on your (or someone else’s) body to take action. Ticks are most numerous from late spring to mid-summer, and again in fall - in other words, the months when we’re most likely to be outside with 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 derived from peanuts. The organic, non-toxic treatment dries clear and doesn’t hurt bees, butterflies or earthworms.
It does, however, fend off ticks … which gives you peace of mind as your children and pets play outdoors in a chemical-free environment.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 300,000 Americans contract Lyme disease every year. If you have ticks in your yard in Lake in the Hills, Wisconsin or northern Illinois or are concerned about the possibility, contact The Mosquito Guy.
