If you've noticed ticks hanging on to you, your family members, or your pets, watch out! These tiny parasites carry several diseases, some of which can cause long-term health complications and even death. Ticks find their prey by hiding in heavily wooded areas and overgrown grassy lawns and latch on to any people or animals who walk by. If the idea of disease-ridden ticks infesting your yard and home drains your joy, trust Mosquito Squad with our time-tested Waukesha tick control treatments!
Why should I worry about ticks in Waukesha County?
In spite of their small size, ticks can cause huge problems for the health of you and your loved ones, both human and animal. Some of the major diseases carried by ticks include:
Lyme Disease
Fever, swollen lymph nodes, muscle aches, fatigue, and headaches might make you feel like you have the flu, but could actually be Lyme disease caused by a tick bite. Half a million Americans contract tick-borne Lyme every year, and many continue experiencing symptoms for months or years afterward.
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
You don't have to live in the Rocky Mountains to catch this fever! This bacterial infection causes a distinctive rash on your arms and legs. While it doesn't itch, it still needs to be taken seriously. If it is not treated in time, it can have severe long-term effects like nerve damage and hearing loss.
Powassan Virus
This rare virus can cause inflammation of the brain, confusion, and seizures, and is primarily found in the Great Lakes region. There are no current treatments or preventative medicines available, so the only way to prevent exposure is by staying as far away from ticks as possible.
Babesiosis
This disease is caused by parasites that make their home in your blood, attacking red blood cells and preventing your body from quickly making new red blood cells. Its symptoms resemble malaria, and it is especially dangerous for individuals with compromised immune systems or existing chronic illnesses or conditions.
Canine ehrlichiosis
Helping protect our pets is just as important as helping protect ourselves. This disease causes a loss of appetite, fatigue, and unexplained bleeding and bruising in dogs. German Shepherds are especially susceptible, and a lack of treatment can lead to death.
