Thermacell Tick Control Tubes for Yards; Protects Backyards and Properties from Ticks; No Spray, No Granules, No Mess; Environmentally Friendly Al...

This is my second year using this product in my yard that is surrounded by woods and my dog has gotten minimal ticks. They are very easy to use, safe, odor free and barely noticeable. They hold up well and last for several months. The price is reasonable for the piece of mind. I recommend.

Tick tubes are a way to reduce the tick population without dispersing pesticides which can harm wildlife. Mice take the treated cotton in the tubes for their nests, and it kills ticks the mice may be carrying. They did seem to reduce the number of ticks that were getting on my dogs, something that was a big problem after a mild winter.

Our yard was overrun with ticks. As in, my kids were forbidden to walk on the grass. A short walk from one end of the yard to the other and you'd have no less than 7 or 8 ticks. I refuse to choose between living with toxic chemicals living in my lawn or the ticks, but I was getting pretty desperate. Thankfully I found these tubes which (I think) are working. We have just over an acre in a rural setting with woods lining one side of our property. At the end of the summer I purchased the 24 pack and placed them throughout our property, along the woods, mostly areas that looked like a critter would hang out. This spring I have noticed a SIGNIFICANT reduction in ticks, as in we've only had two ticks so far, and I've actually been allowing my kids to play in the grass. I honestly didn't think they would work, especially since not all of the cotton was taken from all of the tubes, but these are the only difference between this year and last year. I just purchased another box of 24 and set them out today. I say it's worth a try!!
