Ticks are a real concern for households near bushland in Redlands, especially for dogs and cats that roam through long grass. Paralysis ticks are common along the Queensland coast, and yards that back onto bush reserves or creeks tend to see the most. We give you upfront pricing and book a local crew to treat the yard.
Tick control is an outdoor treatment. The crew sprays the areas where ticks wait for a passing animal: long grass, the edges of garden beds, shrubs, leaf litter and the boundary between the yard and the bush. They also treat around kennels, pet runs and shady spots where pets like to lie. Acreage blocks can be treated in zones, starting near the house. The aim is to cut the number of ticks in the parts of the yard your family and pets use most.

Tick numbers around Redlands usually build from late winter into early summer, so booking a yard treatment before then makes sense. Keeping grass short and clearing leaf piles near the house helps between visits. Talk to your vet about tick products for your pets. If a person is unwell after a tick bite, call 000 or ask a doctor.
Before the crew arrives, keep pets inside and move toys and outdoor furniture off the grass. The crew will say when the yard can be used again. To book tick control, call 07 3543 7768. We will give you upfront pricing and line up a local team, same-day or next-day where the run allows.
