Yard tick treatments for properties with pets, kids or wildlife pressure.
Ticks are an underrated Central Texas problem, especially on properties bordering greenbelts, the Hill Country or wooded areas. Vector 1's tick program treats the yard perimeter, transition zones and shaded harborage areas where ticks wait for a host to walk by.
Ticks in the Austin area can transmit Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Pets pick them up from the yard and bring them inside. Treating the property cuts encounter rates dramatically.
A local Vector 1 technician walks your property, identifies activity, entry points and conducive conditions, then explains exactly what we recommend and why.
We tailor the treatment to your home, your pests and the Central Texas season — never a one-size-fits-all spray.
Pet and family mindful products applied to the right places — eaves, foundation, entry points, harborage areas and active runways — not blanketed across your home.
We schedule recurring service that matches the pest's life cycle. If pests come back between visits, so do we — at no charge.
Yard tick treatment is priced per property based on lot size and treatment area. Homes near greenbelts, wooded areas, or with consistent wildlife traffic may benefit from more frequent treatment. Recurring service every 30–60 days during warm months is available. Call (512) 652-6300.
