Why Be Concerned About New Jersey Ticks - Tick Control in NJ

New Jersey ticks are much more than an annoying consequence of a day in the great outdoors. Ticks can carry disease whose organisms include Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Lyme Disease and Ehrlichiosis. Symptoms may fever, headache, joint pain and stiffness, stiff neck, rash and a lesion around the bite. Ticks are blood feeders that rely on small and large animals, including humans for their food source. The most common tick in the United States is the dog tick found in wooded lots, pasture and agricultural land, feeding on small animals.

When traveling outdoors away from home always remember to:

Stay near the center of trails and avoid shrubs and tall grass.
Tuck your pant legs into socks or boots. Wear a long-sleeved shirt tucked into your pants.
Use insect repellents on your skin and clothes. Read the labels first and follow directions.
Check yourself, family and pets frequently for ticks in New Jersey. Some ticks can be as small as a sesame seed.
If you do discover a tick, grasp its mouthparts as close to the skin as possible with fine tweezers and firmly pull away until it comes off. Apply an antiseptic to the wound. Describe any symptoms of a tick’s bite to a doctor.
