Ticks are out in full force this year. Here are some tips to minimize your risk.

Reduce ticks around your home
Ticks are often found in and near areas with:
trees
shrubs
grass
wood piles
piles of leaves

Ticks can also be found around your home. They can't survive for long in dry, sunny areas. To reduce ticks around your home, create an environment where ticks can't survive:

Mow the lawn often to keep the grass short.
Remove piles of leaves, tree brush, long grass, and weeds:
at the edge of the lawn
around stone walls and wood piles
Prune shrubs and trees to allow sunlight to filter through.

Create a wood chip, mulch or gravel border that is at least 1 metre wide between your lawn and:
shrubs
stone walls
forested area

Seal stone walls and other openings to help prevent animals such as deer, mice and other rodents from bringing ticks into your yard.
Place patios, decks and children's playground sets in sunny areas of the yard and away from yard edges.
Place playground sets on a wood chip or mulch surface.

Due to technical issues, we will be unable to get property tax notices out by the end of May. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and will get them out as soon as we can resolve the problems. You will still have 30 days to pay from the date of the billing. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
