The Kaiser Family Tick Story

In 2004, I contracted Lyme Disease for the third time, and also pulled deer ticks off my wife, child, and our pets. Clearly, changes had to be made in our landscape to make our home safe. We live on an acre of landscaped property, surrounded by woods on three sides. I began researching tick control and found URI tick specialist Dr. Thomas Mather's publications very informative (www.TickEncounter.org). They became the foundation of our home tick control program.

The first thing I did was to I clear the perimeter of our yard of brushy growth, kept the grass cut low, and sprayed the recommended material (permithryn) around the perimeter of our yard and on our planting beds.

Results were instantaneous: I stopped seeing ticks on my family and our dog. An invisible fence keeps her in the yard. She now gets no ticks at all, but, because we cannot stop our cats from wandering, they still get an occasional tick. I am an arborist, and I will always find ticks on myself, but my family is now well protected. I now have 3 children, and in the past four years, we have not pulled a single tick off of one of them, except for a few which they picked up on a hike or at a friends house.

When I saw these results, I decided to start this company, Ocean State Tick Control, to offer similar protection to other families. Shifting my focus from tree care at Kaiser Tree Preservation Company, to controlling ticks in residential landscapes was a natural progression. Kaiser Tree already had been a leader in tree pest control for decades. I already had the appropriate equipment, and the knowledge of its use. Like most small business ventures, my first customers were family and friends untill the word got out. We now treat hundreds of homes in southern RI and eastern CT and have yet to have a single family report that the program has not been effective.

Since the creation of Ocean State Tick Control, we have maintained a sophisticated and effective program which is reasonably priced and environmentally safe. We base our program on the research and advice from URI's Tick Awareness department, as well as other leading tick control companies in other states such as East End Tick Control of Long Island, NY, and Weston Arborist of Weston, CT.
