Southern Maine Tick Control

The tick population along the southern Maine coast has been steadily increasing, leading to a rise in tick-borne diseases. This surge is primarily attributed to climate change, which has resulted in milder winters and longer warm seasons, creating favorable conditions for tick survival and reproduction. One of the most common ticks in this region is the black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis), which is responsible for transmitting diseases such as Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis (Maine CDC, 2021). As a response, researchers from the University of Maine Cooperative Extension and the Maine Medical Center Research Institute are working to study the distribution and ecology of ticks in the region, aiming to develop strategies for effective tick control and public health education (UMaine Extension, 2020).

Our PROGAEA™ all-natural, eco-friendly tick control solution is proven to effectively repel and eliminate ticks and protect your property from tick-borne diseases without harsh chemicals that bleed into our beautiful New England environment.

Additionally, Pure Solutions provides a comprehensive approach to tick control, with property assessments, treatments custom-made for your area and situation, as well as ongoing management to minimize the risk of tick-borne diseases and other pest control-related problems.

Deer Repellent in Maine

Deer populations along the southern Maine coast have been increasing, which has led to more frequent encounters between deer and human habitats. As a result, homeowners are looking for effective solutions to protect their gardens and landscapes from deer browsing. Using a deer repellent, like the Pure Solutions all-natural deer repellent, is a smart decision to safeguard your property from deer damage without causing harm to the animals or the environment (Pure Solutions, n.d.).

This eco-friendly solution contains natural ingredients, such as putrescent egg solids, garlic, and capsaicin, which effectively deter deer without harsh chemicals or physical barriers. By choosing this all-natural method, you protect your property from deer browsing and contribute to a healthier environment by avoiding synthetic chemical repellents that can contaminate soil and water sources. Additionally, Pure Solutions provides a comprehensive approach to deer control, offering property assessments, targeted treatments, and ongoing management to minimize the risk of deer damage.

It is important to note that controlling deer populations and preventing them from causing damage to human habitats can also contribute to reducing the spread of tick-borne diseases, as deer serve as hosts for ticks (UMaine Extension, 2020). Implementing an all-natural deer repellent strategy, you help create a safer and healthier environment for your family, pets, and property.
