Deer ticks (black-legged ticks) and wood ticks are significant health threats in Waukesha County. Deer ticks transmit Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis—Wisconsin consistently ranks among the top states for Lyme disease. Ticks are active whenever temperatures exceed 35°F, meaning they're a near year-round concern in milder winters.
Yes. Wisconsin is a high-risk state for Lyme disease, and Waukesha County sees significant tick populations. Deer ticks that carry Lyme are active from spring through fall, and even on warm winter days.
Professional perimeter treatment, short lawns, gravel borders between woods and yard, removing leaf litter, and treating tick hotspots are all effective. Our seasonal tick program targets your yard's highest-risk areas.
