Should I spray for ticks? Lone star Tick found
I walked outside today in my yard for literally 2 seconds. Looked down and I had a lone star tick on my leg.
I’m typically not a fan of spraying my yard for pests for health and ecosystem issues.
The tick issue has definitely gotten worse over the years and this incident has me pretty freaked out.
Any recommendations for treating the tick issue that are better when it comes to my health, health of my neighbors and our ecosystem.
I’m going to try to do some research but the pesticide companies really infiltrate the google searches so I would like to cut through the bullshit if you know what I mean. If I need to spray for the sake of not getting Lyme disease or Alpha-Gal I’m opening to it but I’m hoping to find out what might be the best option / company etc.
