You want to guard against ticks (and Lyme disease). You don’t want your Elmwood Park yard saturated with chemicals.
You’re in luck, if you live in Elmwood Park. The Mosquito Guy offers a green, non-toxic tick repellent yard treatment. This organic insecticide will keep you and your loved ones safe from the threat of ticks and Lyme disease for up to 30 days.
Tick populations are increasing in Elmwood Park, Wisconsin and northern Illinois. Mild winters and a large deer herd (which carries ticks) are often cited. The menace of Lyme disease, transmitted by the pinhead-size deer tick, has increased at the same time.
Don’t postpone until you spot a tick crawling on your (or someone else’s) body to respond. 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 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 made from peanuts. The organic, non-toxic treatment dries clear and doesn’t hurt bees, butterflies or earthworms.
It does, however, prevent ticks … which gives you peace of mind as your children and pets play outdoors amid a chemical-free environment.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 300,000 Americans are infected with Lyme disease each year. If you have ticks in your yard in Elmwood Park, Wisconsin or northern Illinois or are bothered about the possibility, contact The Mosquito Guy.
