How it works

Fleas and ticks live in the lawn and landscape: shady, moist spots, leaf litter, and along fence lines and tree edges. Treating the yard directly cuts the population at the source, before it ends up on your pets or your family.

You can book it on its own, as a one-time treatment or on a schedule, or add it to a mosquito program so the same visits cover both. Treatments run March through October, when fleas and ticks are most active here.

I treat lawns in North Raleigh, Leesville, Brier Creek and Southeast Durham.

What’s out there

Ticks in the Raleigh area

  • Lone star tick. The most common tick in central North Carolina and an aggressive biter. It can carry ehrlichiosis, and its bite is linked to alpha-gal syndrome, the red-meat allergy.
  • American dog tick. Common along grassy edges and trails, and the main carrier of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, one of the most reported tick-borne diseases in North Carolina.
  • Blacklegged (deer) tick. Less common here than farther north, but present. It carries Lyme disease.

Ticks don’t live out in the sunny middle of the lawn. They wait in the shade where the lawn meets the woods, in leaf litter and in tall grass along fences. That edge is where most NW Raleigh yards back up to woods, and it’s where I focus.

Why it matters

Ticks carry real health risks and fleas are miserable once they’re established. Treating the yard cuts the problem off where it starts, so you spend less time picking ticks off the kids and the dog.

Questions

Flea & tick yard treatment questions

How much does flea and tick yard treatment cost?

From $70 a visit on its own, depending on the size of the yard and how much wooded edge it has. It can also be added to mosquito visits, so one stop covers both.

Can I get flea and tick without mosquito?

Yes. It can be booked on its own or added to a mosquito program.

How often do you treat?

On a program, every 3–4 weeks from March through October. Ticks are active any warm day here, so the schedule starts early in spring. I can also do a one-time treatment whenever you need it.

When can kids and pets go back in the yard?

Once the treatment is dry, typically 1 to 2 hours. I let you know when I’m done.

My dog is on a flea and tick preventive. Do I still need this?

The preventive protects the dog. The yard treatment cuts down how many fleas and ticks are out there to begin with, which also protects the people in the house. They work best together.

Where do you treat?

The shady parts of the lawn, beds, the wooded edge, along fences, under decks and around play areas. The sunny middle of the lawn usually needs the least.
