Frequently Asked Questions
What diseases do ticks spread in Vermont and New Hampshire?
Deer ticks in our region transmit Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis. Lone star ticks are expanding north and can cause alpha-gal syndrome. Prompt tick removal within 24-36 hours significantly reduces disease transmission risk.
How do I properly remove an embedded tick?
Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible. Pull upward with steady, even pressure without twisting. Clean the bite area with rubbing alcohol. Save the tick for identification if you develop symptoms.
Why do Fayston homes have more ticks problems?
Fayston's proximity to water creates humidity that ticks thrive in. We address both the immediate infestation and the underlying moisture conditions that attract these pests.
