TICK MANAGEMENT
To manage ticks in Cameron Park, CA, follow these steps:
Yard & Outdoor Prevention:
Keep Grass Short – Regularly mow your lawn and trim overgrown vegetation where ticks may hide.
Create a Barrier – Place gravel or wood chips between wooded areas and your yard to reduce tick migration.
Remove Leaf Litter & Debris – Clear out leaves, brush, and woodpiles, as ticks thrive in shaded, moist environments.
Use Tick-Repellent Plants – Plant rosemary, lavender, or chrysanthemums, which naturally repel ticks.
Treat Your Yard – Apply tick control treatments, such as permethrin-based sprays, in high-risk areas.
Personal & Pet Protection:
Check for Ticks Regularly – After spending time outdoors, inspect yourself, children, and pets for ticks, especially in hair, underarms, and folds of skin.
Use Tick Prevention on Pets – Apply vet-approved tick treatments, such as collars, topical treatments, or oral medications.
Wear Protective Clothing – When hiking or gardening, wear long sleeves, pants, and tuck pants into socks to reduce exposure.
Use Tick Repellents – Apply EPA-approved repellents with DEET or picaridin on exposed skin and permethrin on clothing.
