Tick Control in Kensington, Brooklyn
Kensington's tree-lined streets and proximity to Prospect Park create ideal conditions for tick populations to thrive. Our professional tick control services protect Kensington families and pets from deer ticks, dog ticks, and the serious diseases they carry. We provide targeted treatments for yards, gardens, and outdoor spaces throughout this charming Brooklyn neighborhood.
Why Kensington Has a Ticks Problem
Kensington residents enjoying the nearby Prospect Park or relaxing in their private gardens need reliable tick protection, especially during peak season from April through October. The neighborhood's mix of single-family homes with yards, the greenery along Ocean Parkway, and proximity to Caton Park all contribute to increased tick activity in the area.
Why Choose Us for Tick Control in Kensington
Our tick control program targets the areas where ticks quest for hosts: tall grass margins, leaf litter, brush piles, stone walls, and the woodland edge where your yard meets natural areas. Technicians apply residual acaricide to these specific zones in a targeted band treatment, maximizing effectiveness while minimizing product use in open lawn areas. We also identify and advise on habitat modifications — like clearing leaf litter and trimming overgrown vegetation — that reduce tick harborage near the home. Seasonal follow-up applications in spring and late summer align with peak tick activity periods for maximum protection through the warmer months. Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.

Tick Control in Kensington — FAQs

When is tick season in Kensington, Brooklyn?▾
Ticks are most active in Kensington from April through October, with peak activity in May, June, and July. However, ticks can be present whenever temperatures are above freezing. We recommend beginning preventative treatments in early spring and maintaining protection through fall for comprehensive coverage.
Are tick treatments safe for my pets and children in my Kensington yard?▾
Yes, we use EPA-registered tick control products that are safe for families and pets when applied by our trained professionals — licensed by NYS DEC or working under the direct supervision of a licensed applicator. After treatment, we recommend keeping children and pets inside for 2-3 hours until the product has dried. Once dry, treated areas are safe for normal use while remaining effective against ticks.
Do you treat for ticks near Prospect Park and green spaces?▾
Absolutely. We specialize in treating Kensington properties adjacent to Prospect Park and other green spaces where tick populations are highest. Our perimeter treatments create a protective barrier around your yard, and we focus on high-risk areas like property edges, tall grass, shrubs, and wooded borders where ticks commonly wait for hosts.
