Grassy Meadows Tick Control Norwalk, CT (203)856-3823

Deer ticks transmit Lyme disease to humans and pets. Lyme Disease is the most commonly reported tick-borne disease in the United states. It was named in 1977 when a cluster of children in and around Lyme, CT developed severe arthritis symptoms.  Deer ticks are much smaller than dog ticks, often no bigger than the head of a pin, and are much more difficult to detect.  In 2002, CT had the highest reported rate of Lyme Disease in the country.  Children aged five to nine have the highest rates of Lyme Disease, but it can strike anyone of any age. Grassy Meadows has a timed schedule of spray applications for lawns, shrubs, and the perimeter of your property.  These applications will greatly reduce the population of Deer Ticks, which can be carriers of Lyme Disease, and Mosquitoes, which can be carriers of West Nile Virus.

Shrubs are surprisingly versatile, offering color, structure, privacy, shelter, and food for wildlife.  But how do you choose, and what works best for your yard? A photo gallery of options is a great start; you'll find dependable choices and helpful advice to guide you toward making a good decision. Springtime is a prime time for many shrubs to put on a colorful and welcome show; learn the best plants to add blooms to brighten those early-growing season days. Lilacs are another shrub that offer fragrance in spring and pretty foliage the rest of the growing season. Bloomerang lilac is a prolific re-bloomer, and one you might want to try for your flower beds.  Autumn is also a good season to let shrubs shine; discover varieties that add an explosion of deep color hues to your yard. Shrubs often have short bloom times, but many reward with fantastic foliage. Hydrangeas are prolific and suitable for nearly every region.

Norwalk Mosquito Control | Scam or Not?

It always been my opinion to use the least toxic option to eradicate a problem.  When used responsibly, I believe that pesticides can be safe and effective. Some media has a habit of scaring people to the point of taking unnecessary precautions that can quite possibly be more harmful than the threat.

You may already be treating for mosquitoes without knowing it. If you are on a tick spraying program, the answer is probably "yes," because the same products are used for both. Ticks have been a problem in Norwalk for a number of years, and its not uncommon for homeowners to be on tick control programs. Two to four tick applications during the season can reduce the population of ticks on your property anywhere from fifty to ninety- five percent. Mosquito spraying is done in a similar manner,  and is effective only for a short period of time due to the fact that mosquitoes are airborne and ticks are not.

My reasoning behind writing this blog post is not to stop people from treating for mosquitoes. I believe that reducing the mosquito threat is a good option. It is my opinion that if you are already spraying for ticks, additional applications for mosquito control may just be overkill.

ZIKA VIRUS

There are many questions surrounding the Zika Virus in the United States. Connecticut is not an area that it has been detected in mosquitoes. Norwalk Mosquitoes are carriers of other pathogens, but not the Zika virus at this point. If you are spraying your property for Ticks, you are also getting the benefits of mosquito spraying. Mosquito spraying has limited effects because the insect is airborne. Spraying can kill any airborne mosquitoes present at the time of the spray, and may also kill a mosquito that lands somewhere that was sprayed recently. Mosquito larvae can be killed if treated, but they often breed in water that cannot be sprayed. Grassy Meadows Lawn Care and Tick Control is one of only a few contractors in the state of Connecticut licensed for mosquito applications. Please give us a call and we will be happy to explain your options.

   The Right Shrubs For Your Location     

    


There are several factors to consider when choosing shrubs for your landscape.  The most important consideration is the environment that you will be planting them in.  Several environmental factors that may affect the performance of shrubs include the amount of sunlight (full sun, partial shade, shade) the site receives, the moisture characteristics of the site (wet or dry), and the temperatures they are going to be exposed to throughout the year.  Each shrub performs best when it is planted in its preferred environment. Planting shrubs in locations with inadequate conditions will greatly reduce their appearance, performance , and longevity.  For example,  planting a shrub with a full sun requirement in a location that has full shade will reduce the appearance of the plant, decrease the number of blooms produced, and the flowering will usually be delayed compared to the same shrub planted in a sunny location.  Also consider the USDA Hardiness Zone designation of each plant before purchasing and planting shrubs into your landscape.  This provides an indication as to where each shrub is likely to survive the winter months.  Use USDA Hardiness Zone recommendations as guidelines as many factors such as the actual snow cover and moisture levels of each site will also affect a plants ability to withstand cold temperatures.   For improved success, choose varieties that a known to preform well in the type of area you desire to plant them in.  When planted in a suitable environment, shrubs will prosper and provide you with the years of relatively  maintenance free beauty.

Lawn Care Techniques

By: National Gardening Association Editors


Lawns have gotten a bad rap in the gardening world the last few years. It's true they take lots of time and resources to keep them looking their best. However, they are a valued part of our landscape and will not be disappearing soon. A lawn is the glue that holds our yards together. Keeping it looking good isn't as hard as you may think. With some attention paid to the watering, fertilizing, mowing, and Building the soil underneath the grass, you can avoid many of the weed, and insect, and disease problems. That means more time playing ball, barbecuing, and entertaining on your lawn.

Some ticks are carrying a potentially deadly disease, Powassan virus, which is becoming increasingly more common in Connecticut. "Fortunately it's a very rare disease," said Philip Armstrong, a research scientist for the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station. "There are only about 10 cases that are reported nationally." Armstrong says the virus has been found in ticks in Bridgeport and North Branford. "It's definitely becoming a regional issue," said Armstrong. "There have been human cases in neighboring states of New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, up into New Hampshire and Maine." There have been no reported cases in our state, but experts say you still need to be vigilant. Possible symptoms of the virus include: seizures, fever, headache, vomiting, confusion, speech difficulties, loss of coordination. Those symptoms are similar to another tick-borne illness, Lyme disease. Trumbull's Mark Hopwood has been living with that sickness ever since he first contracted it from a tick seven years ago. He's also a parent and says those with children need to be especially mindful of the Powassan virus. Hopwood recommends people check their kids for ticks daily, spray them with bug spray, and have them wear long pants.

Information provided by University of Rhode Island

Norwalk Tick Control

Perimeter spray treatments are eco-friendly by limiting the amount of pesticide being applied, and targeting the areas where people most frequently come into contact with deer ticks.  The chemicals used today for tick control are much less toxic than in the past, and are used in very low concentrations.  Additionally, Bifenthrin and permethrin do not leach through soil.

Norwalk Tick Control Applications

When larval blacklegged ticks hatch from eggs, they generally are pathogen-free (several studies from a number of laboratories have failed to detect any human disease-causing pathogens in newly hatched larvae).  Ticks become infected with disease-causing pathogens when they feed on reservoir animals.  Most studies support the notation that mice are the main host for lime disease.  These mice are common and quite often abundant in rural, suburban, and semi-urban settings across much of the eastern United States

Norwalk Tick Control Spraying

Deer ticks are not out in the middle of your lawn, they live where yards border wooded areas, ornamental plantings and gardens, or anywhere it is shaded and there are leaves with high humidity. By raking leaves, trimming shrubs and low branches you can make certain areas where ticks cannot survive.  Pay special attention to frequented border areas, woodpiles, stonewalls and sheds.  creating borders of wood chips stone or any other landscaping material helps to serve as a reminder between tick-safe and tick-dangerous zones.

Norwalk Tick Control Treatments

Ticks are brought to your yard by deer and become infected mainly by feeding on mice.  Keep deer out by planting undesirable plants or installing deer fencing.  Mice like to live in stonewalls, around sheds, woodpiles or any enclosed area they can get into.  Clean up brush, keep stonewalls clear of leaves, move woodpiles away from daily activity.  Bird feeders also attract deer and rodents that may drop ticks off right where you are standing.

Some Information From The CDC

Tick safe zone for Emily       

Preventing Ticks In Norwalk

Apply Pesticides Outdoors To Control Ticks


Pesticides for ticks, known as acaricides, can reduce the number of ticks in your Trumbull yard. These benefits have been best studied for Ixodes Scapularis (the black leg tick).

1.  Consistent and timely pest control
2.  Easy to apply
3.  Relatively inexpensive
4.  Safe if applied according to label



Only small amounts of acaricide applied at the right time of the year are necessary. Application should focus on control of nymphal Ixodes Scapularis ticks, the stage most likely to transmit Lyme Disease, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis, by spraying in the early spring and summer. Adult blacklegged ticks can be targeted in the summer and fall.

Create a Tick-safe  Zone: Reduce Ticks in your Norwalk

Yard


Remove leaf litter.

Clear tall brush around homes and at the border of lawns.

Place a 3 foot barrier of wood chips or gravel between lawn and wooded areas.             

Mow lawn once a weekly.

Stack wood neatly and in dry areas

Keep playground equipment, decks, and patios away from brushy areas.

Discourage unwelcome animals by using fencing.

Remove all old furniture and trash that may give ticks a place to hide.

Norwalk Tree and Shrub Care Watering


Once matured, most trees and shrubs do not need much watering except during periods of drought. Plant root systems do well at finding moisture, which is why the soil is often dry around the base of a a tree. Trees and shrubs typically appreciate regular watering the first year or so they're planted or transplanted to help them established. Give juvenile shrubs and inch or two of water weekly. Evergreens do well with watering in autumn. Some experts believe that fall is the most important time to water shrubs. If shrubs don't get enough water in the fall, they're much more susceptablke winter damage. 



Norwalk Tree and Shrub Care Fertilizing


Many trees and shrubs need nutrients from fertilizer to stay healthy. Fertilizers can be helpful in areas with poor soil, or in subdivisions where nutrients from topsoil has been removed. In most cases, all you need is a deep root injected fertilizer. Use either nitrogen or phosphorous liquids, and choose proper fertilizer based on soil test. Always follow the directions no matter what type of fertilizer you use. Never add more fertilizer than recommended, this will always go bad. To much fertilizer can burn plant roots, killing the plant. Flowering trees and shrubs that get to much fertilizer may flower less, and not flourish through the season. 


Norwalk Tree and Shrub Care Pruning


Most trees and shrubs need pruning throughout their life. The process is not hard. Follow these tips to make it easier. Whatever shrubs you're growing, prune out any dead or diseased branches. This makes the plant look better and helps prevent  the disease. You should prune out any growth that blocks walkways or gets close to structures or other plants. Always prune branches with a clean cut to prevent plant injury.

Tree and Shrub spraying with insecticides and fungicides can be complicated for the average do it yourself homeowner. Call Grassy Meadows Lawn Care and Tick Control for all your spraying needs.

Lyme Disease - Fact Sheet
What is Lyme disease?Lyme disease is an illness caused by the bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi.

How is Lyme disease spread?The bacteria are spread by the bite of infected Ixodes scapularis (black-legged) ticks. In Connecticut, these ticks are also commonly known as deer ticks. When in its nymphal stage, the tick is about the size of a poppy seed or the period at the end of this sentence. Not all deer ticks are infected.

Who gets Lyme disease?Anyone can get Lyme disease; however, it is more prevalent in children < 10 years old.

What are the symptoms of Lyme disease?Early Lyme disease symptoms include an expanding red rash that may appear around the area of the tick bite. The rash can resemble a bull’s eye with a clearing center and distinct ring around it. Other early symptoms may include flu-like symptoms: fatigue, headache, fever, and achy muscles and joints. Later symptoms may include arthritis, neurologic problems, and heart problems.

How soon do symptoms appear?The early symptoms of Lyme disease usually occur within the first month after the tick bite. Later symptoms can occur several weeks to several months later.

How is Lyme disease diagnosed?Lyme disease may be difficult to diagnose because the symptoms can mimic many other disorders. Blood tests can be helpful in the diagnosis of Lyme disease but should not be used exclusively. Physicians will consider symptoms, history of tick bite, and the possibility of coming in contact with ticks to help in the diagnosis. If Lyme disease is suspected as the cause of illness, it is important that medical attention be sought.
What is the treatment for Lyme disease?Lyme disease is easily treated when detected in the early stages. Treatment with oral antibiotics, such as doxycycline or amoxicillin, taken for a few weeks are often effective. Intravenous antibiotic treatment may be necessary for patients with late symptoms of Lyme disease.
How can Lyme disease be prevented?
To prevent Lyme disease and other tick-borne infections, the best protection is to avoid contact with ticks. When working or playing outside in areas that ticks inhabit (tall grass and weeds, woods, and leaf litter) you should:
  • Wear light colored clothing (to spot the ticks easily), long sleeved shirts and long pants.
  • Create a “tick barrier” by tucking pants into socks and shirt into pants.
  • Consider using insect repellent, according to manufacturer’s instructions, when planning to be outdoors.
  • Check clothing and skin very carefully after being outdoors in tick infested areas.
  • Remove any ticks as soon as possible after they are discovered. 
  • Keep your lawn mowed, cut overgrown brush, and clear any leaf litter away from the home.
  • Use a wood chip barrier between any wooded area and the yard.
  • Inspect pets daily and remove any ticks found.
How should a tick be removed?
  • It is important that a tick is removed as soon as it is discovered using tweezers. Grasp the tick mouth parts as close to the skin as possible and pull the tick out with steady pressure. Do not yank the tick out. Do not crush the ticks body with the tweezers as it may contain infectious fluids.
  • Do not use petroleum jelly, hot matches, nail polish remover, or any other substance to remove a tick. By using these substances, you may actually increase your chance of infection.
  • Thoroughly wash the area of the bite with soap and water and put an antiseptic on it.
  • The sooner the tick is removed, the lesser the risk of tick-borne infection. Research has found that infected ticks need to feed for 24-36 hours before transmission occurs.
  • Write on the calendar the date you removed the tick and the part of the body it was removed from. Check this area daily for 30 days.
  • Contact your physician if you believe you are experiencing symptoms of Lyme disease for recommendations on testing and treatment.
