Tick calls in Toowong usually come from a yard backing onto bushland toward Mount Coot-tha, or after a dog has picked up a tick during a walk near the river. Send through where pets or kids spend time outside, and we book a local crew that treats the yard rather than just checking the animal.
Yards around Toowong with long grass, garden beds, or a fence line next to bushland give ticks a place to wait for a host to brush past. The crew treats grassed areas, garden beds, and shaded spots along fence lines, then checks entry points where pets come inside from the yard, since ticks can be carried indoors on fur or clothing after time outside. Mention if pets are walked in bushland nearby on a regular basis, since this can shape how much outdoor area the crew focuses on. Wood piles, garden edging, and the base of retaining walls are also checked where a yard backs onto denser growth, since these spots hold shade and moisture that ticks tend to favour over open lawn.
