These pests thrive in tall grasses and thick undergrowth and have trouble surviving on paved streets and sidewalks. Keeping this in mind, if you visit any of the major parks in the area or you have vegetation on your property, you might encounter these pests.

Ticks can hop off indoors and find their way onto humans.
There are a few different types of ticks that live here in Fort Worth. All spread disease, however, only one kind spreads Lyme disease. They are called blacklegged ticks. These orange-brown arachnids have dark-colored legs and a spot in the center of their backs. It is important that you know how to identify these ticks as this may save you from some unnecessary stress. Also, identifying and keeping a blacklegged tick in a plastic bag in the freezer after being bitten could help your doctor identify which strain of Lyme disease you may contract.

There are many sicknesses you can contract from these pests. Stay safe by having your property treated for ticks and putting prevention in place to keep wildlife off your property.
