Tick Control Nantucket

Ticks are more than just a nuisance—they can carry dangerous diseases like Lyme disease, which is common throughout New England. On Nantucket, our coastal landscape, wooded areas, and high deer populations make ticks a persistent problem. Island Insect Control offers targeted tick treatments to help you enjoy your yard without worry.

Nantucket Tick Control

✔ Step 1 – Full Property Inspection
We assess your property for tick hotspots, such as wooded edges, stone walls, tall grass, and shaded landscaping.

✔ Step 2 – Targeted Barrier Spray
A long-lasting treatment is applied to vegetation, wood lines, and high-risk zones where ticks are likely to be active.

✔ Step 4 – Seasonal Scheduling
Treatments are performed on a bi-weekly or monthly basis during peak activity months (April–October) to ensure ongoing protection.

✔ Step 3 – Tick Hotspot Focus
We treat leaf litter, underbrush, and perimeter areas where ticks breed and host animals travel.

✔ Step 5 – Follow-Up Support
If ticks persist between visits, we will re-treat at no additional cost for active service plan clients.
