A Four-Visit Tick Control Program for Worcester Properties
At Ford's Hometown Services, we’ve served homeowners and businesses across Central Massachusetts since 1941. Our family-owned company provides residential and commercial tick control backed by more than 80 years of continuous local service.
Ticks in Massachusetts are a public health concern. Blacklegged ticks, dog ticks, and lone star ticks may be found in shaded, damp, brushy, wooded, grassy, and backyard areas. Professional treatment can help reduce tick exposure, alongside personal precautions, pet protection, and routine tick checks.
We’re QualityPro accredited and a member of the National Pest Management Association. Our credentials also include BBB accreditation, while more than 800 Google reviews reflect customers’ experiences with our services.

Targeted Treatment for Tick Habitat
Tick control is one of our core services, which is why we’ve developed a four-visit tick protection program focused on reducing tick activity in treated areas. Our state-licensed applicators plan each visit around the property’s conditions and likely tick habitat.
This structured program includes:
- Four scheduled applications: Treatments are completed during the service season to provide repeated coverage.
- Targeted barrier treatment: Applications may cover vegetation and property edges up to four feet high and 10 to 20 feet deep.
- State-licensed applicators: Trained applicators perform each treatment for residential properties and commercial landscaping.
- Residual and organic-compliant options: Customers can choose a residual treatment product or an alternative compliant with USDA organic standards.
- Optional service enhancements: Available additions include lawn blanket applications, tick and mosquito control, and Rain Guard.
Treatment commonly focuses on transition areas such as wooded edges, stone walls, mulched beds, tall grass, brush, and leaf litter. We offer one-time treatments, seasonal programs, and recurring service options for properties with different layouts, goals, and budgets.

Professional Tick Control and Property-Specific Coverage
Professional service provides appropriate product handling and clear use instructions. No yard treatment can establish that a property is free from ticks or tick-borne illness risk.
Choosing our Worcester tick control services provides:
- Clear use instructions: Customers receive direction about when children, pets, and other people may use treated areas again.
- Satisfaction guarantee: Most of our services are backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Tick treatment doesn’t replace daily tick checks, pet prevention, protective clothing, prompt tick removal, or medical guidance after a bite. It can serve as one part of integrated pest management, which combines monitoring, property maintenance, prevention, and targeted treatment.
