We are proud to offer two types of tick protection, an Organic Tick Spray and a Traditional Tick Spray. Coastal Fertilization recommends a 4 spray program for best results. We can not guarantee a complete tick free environment as they are mobile pest, but we will drastically reduce the population.

Organic Tick Spray: This is a custom blend of Cedar oils and a sticker that is sprayed on all lawn areas, flower beds, and property borders. This method is not as effective as Synthetic treatments. As stated above on the chart from

Synthetic Tick Spray: You will experience immediate great results. Treatments only take minutes to dry depending on environmental conditions. Children and Pets can play as soon as it dries. This also is sprayed on all lawn areas, flower beds and property borders.

SEASONAL TICK SPRAY PROGRAMS

​

Spring Spray: April (Highest Bite Risk)

In the spring the applicator is targeting the nymph ticks that require two blood meals to grow into adult ticks. They can get their blood from adults, kids, pets, chipmunks, deer, and other animals.

​

Early Summer: May-June

In the early summer the applicator is targeting the adult tick. These ticks have re-entered or re-introduced to your property most commonly by deer, mice, chipmunks and other animals

Summer Spray: July-August

The applicator is targeting the adult tick. These ticks have re-entered or re-introduced to your property most commonly by deer, mice, chipmunks and other animals.

Fall Spray: September-October

In the fall the applicator is targeting pregnant ticks and other adult ticks. Reducing the tick population in fall prevents a high spring outbreak when bite risk is at its highest.
