We all know that ticks are voracious blood preys. Usually, they live on animals such as our pets and they are part of the larger casual category of biting pests. Belonging to the family of arachnids, they are categorised as part of the family of spiders and other eight-legged creepy crawlers.
In fact, ticks belong to the arachnid family, hence, they are associated with spiders and other eight-legged creepy crawlers. They are a fairly interesting pest too. When they feed on blood, they have anti-clotting agent mixed with their saliva that prevents the blood from coagulating. If you notice, if you squeeze a tick, you will notice the freshness of blood coming out from it.
Ticks have beak-like projections that plunge into the skin of their host. Based on its kind, a tick can also feed the host’s blood for hours, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne illnesses consist of lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash illness, tick-borne relapsing fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the widest collection of disorder-causing organisms.
The tick-induced disease is lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, rocky mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash infection, tick-borne relapsing fever, and tularemia.
Extreme cases of tick-borne illnesses can even lead to a respiratory attack and different kinds of shock responses. The intensification of tick bites can be prevented through knowledge of tick biology and habitats as well as methods of tick control.
There are seventy (70) forms of ticks in Australia. Tick-borne microscopic organisms may spread disease and cause hypersensitive responses which can be dangerous, the majority of the time.
Your chances of disturbing the tick increase by scratching it or trying to remove it, often resulting in the injection of toxic saliva. This is what can cause allergic reactions. In some cases, these may be life-threatening and very rarely, cause paralysis and death.
There are several things you can do to get rid of ticks if you catch the problem early enough.
Here’s a couple to stop ticks in invading your house:
Garden Maintenance
It is important to keep garden foliage trimmed back away from verandas, paths, clotheslines and other areas frequently used. Reduce dense ground covers, and prevent large amounts of lead mulch/organic matter and wines which cover fences.
Personal Protection
It is essential to wear protective garb while walking or gardening outdoors. Wear a long-sleeved blouse, long pants, a hat and boots. You may additionally need to apply a personal insect repellent to any areas unleashed.
Using Approved Pesticides and Insecticides Only
The active ingredient pesticide is Bifenthrin, a synthetic pyrethroid. This product is diluted with water before being applied to the grass and foliage of your garden. Treatment may also include the application of the insecticide onto garden furniture and the exterior of your house. This treatment will provide a knockdown of the ticks in your garden at the time of treatment.
If the origin of tick infestation does not arise in your household and area, and you are worried about their presence, calling the help of a pest control expert is recommended.
Another factor is when you notice pepper-like items that stick into your pets’ fur. If you’re seeing engorged insects burrowed in your pet, it’s the best advised to remove them immediately.
It is always our primary goal to remediate back the comfort of your home and surroundings by making it pest-free. With our understanding and innovative pest technologies, we can help you deal with the pest problem that’s been a nuisance and has put your family in danger.

Should I empty my kitchen cupboards prior to your arrival?
We will apply a gel to these areas which are often home to cockroaches. We do not apply a liquid spray in these areas. You are free to leave your cupboards as they are.
Will the spray you use stain my carpet?
You don’t need to worry about any damage to the carpets such as staining due to the fact that the products we use water-based. They do not contain strong solvents that are likely to cause any problems for the colouring or finishes of your carpets.
