In Northern Westchester, spring is a really fun and enjoyable time of year. Unfortunately, pests like ticks, mice, and rats didn’t get the memo about not being welcome at the backyard BBQ—so they show up uninvited, ready to disrupt all your springtime plans.
That’s where Ultimate Turf comes in to save the day. Our highly trained technicians know how to deal with all sorts of pests, and we’re here to help you prepare your home for pest season this year.
Why Does Northern Westchester Have So Many Pests?
Northern Westchester has beautiful forested areas that most residents love. However, these lush environments, along with humid summers, provide ideal breeding grounds for insects and pests such as ticks. In fact, the region is a hotspot for ticks and mosquitoes, making it more important than ever to prepare your home and yard for pest season. Yards that receive frequent deer visits are especially vulnerable to tick infestations.
Additionally, invasive species like the spotted lanternfly are heavily present in the area because they often lack natural predators. These insects feed on trees and plants and commonly use the Tree of Heaven and other smooth-barked trees for laying eggs.
Your Spring Pest Control Checklist in Northern Westchester, NY
To truly help protect your home and family from invading pests this season, preparation must start early. Below is a checklist of tasks to complete before the weather warms:
- Clear leaf litter from your yard and create gravel barriers between lawn and wooded areas
- Reduce deer activity in your yard to help limit tick infestations
- Clean gutters and remove standing water from containers
- Seal entry points to prevent mice and rats from entering your home
- Inspect sheds and outbuildings for rodent and wasp activity
- Check trees like the Tree of Heaven for spotted lanternfly egg masses
- Schedule professional pest control early in spring before peak activity begins
