Tick Control in Pelham: What You Need to Know
Pelham's location directly north of the Bronx and its borders with Eastchester, New Rochelle, and Mount Vernon create diverse wooded edges and transition zones where ticks thrive. Hello Pest Control applies an acaricide barrier spray that includes approximately the first nine feet of wooded edge, targeting the areas where ticks wait for hosts. Our service walks property perimeters and transition zones to ensure complete coverage, with optional granular treatment available for additional protection.

Tick Control in Pelham — Common Questions
How do ticks get into yards in Pelham?
Ticks are carried onto properties by deer, rodents, birds, and other wildlife that move through wooded areas and transition zones. In Pelham's 2.17 square miles bordering multiple municipalities and the Bronx, wildlife corridors and wooded edges provide ample opportunity for ticks to establish themselves in residential yards.
What's the difference between blacklegged ticks and dog ticks?
Blacklegged ticks (also called deer ticks) are smaller and are the primary vector for Lyme disease in the Northeast. American dog ticks are larger, have distinctive white markings, and primarily transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Lone Star ticks have a white spot on their back and are associated with alpha-gal syndrome. All three species are active in our region and require professional control.
When should I start tick treatments for the season?
Tick treatments should begin in early spring, typically April, before tick populations peak. Seasonal re-treatment from April through November provides continuous protection during the months when ticks are actively seeking hosts and reproducing.
