Tick control and preventions are more crucial than ever to limit your family and pets from the dangers of tick-borne diseases. Ticks are resilient pests that can survive in various environments, making your yard a prime target. Without proper control measures, these tiny but dangerous insects can spread rapidly, threatening your outdoor spaces and peace of mind.
Ticks thrive in many areas of your yard, including:
Ticks love dense, shaded areas where they can easily latch onto passing animals or people.
These spots provide perfect hiding places, allowing ticks to remain undetected while waiting for their next host.
Ticks cling to low-hanging branches and shrubbery, making it easy to latch onto you or your pets as you pass by.
Even in seemingly harmless piles of leaves, ticks can hide and survive for months, waiting for the right conditions to emerge.
Deer ticks, also known as black-legged ticks, are common in Rochester and can pose serious health risks to both humans and pets. Adult deer ticks are tiny, about the size of a sesame seed, with females displaying a reddish-brown body and a darker scutum behind the head. Nymphs and larvae are even smaller but can still transmit tick-borne diseases. These ticks thrive in wooded areas, tall grasses, and leaf litter, and are frequently found in backyards near forest edges or shaded gardens.
Larger than deer ticks, adult American dog ticks are brown with distinctive white or gray markings on their backs. Health Risks: Can transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever and tularemia.
Where Found: Open grassy areas, fields, and nature trails where pets and wildlife are commonly active across Rochester.
The Lone Star tick, though less common in Rochester, is becoming increasingly noticeable in the region. This tick is easily identified by the single white dot on the back of female ticks, while males have faint markings along their edges. Medium-sized, they are larger than deer ticks but smaller than wood ticks. Their presence is growing, making awareness of their behaviors and risks important.
