Get Rid of Ticks and Mosquitoes for Sterling, MA

Sterling, MA, is in close proximity to both Wachusett Mountain and Leominster State Forest. This gives residents lots of opportunities for hiking and skiing. Sholan Park, on Lake Wauschacum, also has a beach area and boat ramp for ample summertime fun. The Mass Central Rail Trail is also a popular biking trail for outdoor enthusiasts.
While the outdoor and natural areas around Sterling, MA, give residents lots to do, it also increases the number of ticks and mosquitoes in the area. These pests are more than just a nuisance, they can transmit numerous diseases — including Lyme Disease, Yellow Fever, Zika, Malaria, Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE), and West Nile.
