First: clean up and make a tick-free zone for getting rid of ticks in yard
As with so many things, prevention is key to enjoying your outdoor spaces without fear of ticks. The CDC offers some simple ways to help reduce black-legged tick populations on your property, by creating a tick-free zone. These include:
- Removing leaf litter
- Clearing tall grasses and brush around your home and at the edge of your yard
- Creating a 3-foot barrier of wood chips or gravel between lawns and wooded areas
- Mowing the lawn frequently
- Stacking any firewood neatly in a dry area to discourage rodents

Combined with a spray package this is the optimal integrated approach for getting rid of ticks in your yard. We clear leaf litter, brush piles and tall weeds, organize woodpiles and compost areas, and target other favorite tick and crawling insect habitats so you don’t have to. You can simply enjoy your property worry-free and let us do the dirty work.
No harsh chemicals means a safer choice
Getting rid of ticks in yard areas around your home is an important part of enjoying the warm weather outdoors. Yet many commercial pest control companies use synthetic chemicals when they spray for ticks that could be compromising your safety and that of your loved ones and the environment. Some of the risks you could be introducing to your yard and home with chemical pest control include:
- Carcinogens that can cause cancer and exacerbate asthma
- Higher risk of developmental issues in pregnancy and reproductive complications
- Elimination of essential pollinators that come into contact with sprayed areas
- Harm to household pets and risks to children and others
The all-natural alternative offered by Kinder Spray helps you get rid of pests with confidence that you aren’t doing greater harm. Kinder Spray’s Organic Pest Control is made from all-natural cedar oil. Cedar oil acts as a pheromone interruption agent that impairs the mental capacity of ticks, and also causes the exoskeletons of insects to dehydrate. Unlike harmful chemicals, this non-toxic pest control has no negative effect on butterflies, honeybees, ladybugs, aquatic life, people, or pets! The key to effective and safe elimination of ticks in your yard.
