A recent report found that while many plan to spend time enjoying their yards, 87% think about bites and stings when spending time outside, and 46% say that bug concerns have stopped them from doing an outdoor activity.
Ticks are among the biggest worries. More than 1 in 5 Americans say they are very concerned about ticks this summer, particularly deer ticks and lone star ticks, which can carry harmful diseases.
Modern Pest Services weighs in on how to protect your yard:
“The most effective defense against ticks is a layered approach—keeping grass trimmed, clearing brush where ticks thrive, and performing regular tick checks on people and pets. Professional treatment is the final and most critical layer. By treating the perimeter and breeding areas of your yard, we can greatly reduce tick populations and help keep your outdoor space safe for your family, pets, and friends.”
