Are Ticks a Threat to Your Family in the Winter?
Install Deer Fencing For Tick Control
While most critters remain dormant during the colder months, disease-carrying ticks are not one of them. Depending on the region and species, ticks can survive the winter and will actively search for either a deer or human host. However, these pests prefer to stay warm and may do so by hiding in wooded or leaf covered areas. As winter sets in and snow begins to fall, ticks will bury themselves in this debris for shelter and crawl upwards if an appropriate host should pass by. Since ticks are present all year round, one of the best solutions to keep them away from your property is to install a deer fence. Work with a professional deer fence installation company to create a barrier against deer and prevent the invasion of ticks.
