You want to guard against ticks (and Lyme disease). You don’t want your Colgate yard coated with chemicals.
You’re in luck, if you reside in Colgate. The Mosquito Guy offers 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 populations are growing in Colgate, Wisconsin and northern Illinois. Mild winters and a large deer herd (which carries ticks) are often blamed. The menace of Lyme disease, borne by the pinhead-size deer tick, has increased simultaneously.
Don’t wait until you locate 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 among 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 affect bees, butterflies or earthworms.
It does, however, deter ticks … which gives you peace of mind as your children and pets play outdoors amidst a chemical-free environment.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 300,000 Americans contract Lyme disease each year. If you have ticks in your yard in Colgate, Wisconsin or northern Illinois or are worried about the possibility, contact The Mosquito Guy.
