Behavior and habits
They quest on grass tips and brush edges, latching onto hikers, pets, and kids passing by.
Why ticks are a problem
Utah ticks can transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever, tularemia, and Colorado tick fever.
How Antex handles ticks
Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.
Prevention tips
Keep grass short, create bark or gravel borders along wild edges, and check family and pets after time outside.
