Paralysis ticks are a real worry for Woodridge pet owners, especially in homes near bushland, reserves and long grass. They are most active from spring through summer and can make dogs and cats very sick in a short time. Ticks climb onto grass and shrubs and wait for a person or animal to brush past. We take the details and book a nearby independent crew who handles tick work across Logan.
The crew we book treats the parts of the yard where ticks are most likely to be waiting. That includes lawn edges, long grass, leaf litter, garden beds, under shrubs and along fence lines that back onto bush. They will also point out areas worth clearing, such as piles of leaves or overgrown corners, since ticks need shade and moisture to survive. Mowing the day before the visit helps the treatment reach the ground.
A yard treatment cuts down the number of ticks around the home but does not replace tick prevention for pets. Talk to your vet about the right product for your dog or cat, and check pets by hand every day during tick season, feeling around the head, neck, ears and between the toes. Check children after they have played near bush or long grass too.
