The most prominent danger ticks pose is the transmission of Lyme disease. Ticks infected with the disease are commonly found in the Northeast (including New York State), upper Midwest, and along the Northwest coast of the United States.

What Is Lyme Disease?

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection. It can lead to several health problems if left untreated. When diagnosed early, patients are treated with antibiotics and usually recover rapidly.

House flies usually enter the home through ripped screens, damaged siding and weather stripping, and other breaks in a building’s structure. They thrive in warm temperatures and are attracted to the warmer air emanating from the inside of buildings. Left out food and otherwise unsanitary conditions also attracts them.

Treat – Protect – Control

Ticks inhabit densely wooded areas and relocate via their host. They don’t thrive indoors and arrive inside via human or pet carriers.
