A Bit About Ticks

Contrary to popular belief, ticks are not insects. In fact, they are members of the class Arachnida, which includes spiders, scorpions, spiders and mites.

Why You Want to Get Rid of Ticks

Unfortunately, ticks are efficient carriers of disease because they attach firmly when sucking blood and may go unnoticed. Ticks have been linked to a number of pathogen-induced infections such as typhus, Rocky Mountain spotted fever (which, without prompt and appropriate treatment, can be fatal), Lyme disease (with its lingering symptoms of fatigue, pain, or joint and muscle aches) and lesser known afflictions such as Q fever, tularemia, bovine anaplasmosis and tick-borne meningoencephalitis, which is an infection or inflammation of the brain.

Eliminating ticks is therefore vitally important to preventing large variety of diseases.
