Tick Control Services in Arkansas

Your Trusted Arkansas Tick Exterminator

Ticks are small, oval-shaped insects. They feed on the blood of non-domesticated wildlife such as foxes, deer, mice, and raccoons but also on pets and people. Here in Arkansas, our pest professionals often encounter lone star ticks and American dog ticks. Black-legged ticks, also known as deer ticks, are also quite common. Ticks are often found in wooded or overgrown areas as well as in tall grass and shrubs as they wait for a host animal or person.

Why Do I Have Ticks?

Ticks enter homes and buildings usually on a pet or human host. They are often brought onto your property by native wildlife. Ticks cannot jump or fly but often wait in areas where they are most likely to find a host. Also known as transitional areas or edge habitats, these areas include where fields meet lawns and trails through tall grass or forests.
