In 2004, I contracted Lyme Disease for the third time, and also pulled deer ticks off my wife, child and our pets. Clearly, changes had to be made in our landscape to make our home safe. We live on an acre of landscaped property, surrounded by woods on three sides. I began researching tick control and found URI specialist, Dr. Thomas Mather's publication very informative (www.tickencounter.org). They became the foundation of our home tick control program. The first thing I did, was to clear the perimeter of our yard of brushy growth, kept the grass cut low, and sprayed the recommendedmaterial(bifenthrin) around the perimeter of our yard and on our planting beds.

Deer ticks and the diseases associated with them have become one of this area's top health threats. As you may well know, tick borne diseases are difficult to prevent because the deer ticks that carry the disease are so small (the size of a poppy seed), which makes it nearly impossible to find the ticks on ourselves, our children and our pets.
