June is one of the busiest times of year for whitetail deer, and all that activity can have a major impact on landscapes and gardens. 🦌🌿

As natural food sources grow in and fawns arrive, deer spend more time actively feeding to support rapid body growth, antler development, and nursing. That’s why many homeowners start noticing increased browsing damage this time of year, especially on fresh, nutrient-rich landscaping.

At ohDEER, understanding seasonal deer behavior helps us better protect properties with our All-Natural Deer Control. By knowing when feeding pressure is highest and how deer habits change throughout the year, we can help homeowners stay one step ahead while still respecting wildlife and the environment. 💚

If your plants look like this… rabbits may be the reason. 🐰

Rabbits tend to feed low to the ground, chewing on bark, stems, and new growth, often leaving plants stressed, damaged, or struggling to come back. It can happen quickly, especially in the spring when fresh growth is most appealing. 🌱

The good news is you don’t have to choose between protecting your landscape and keeping your yard safe. ohDEER's All-Natural Rabbit Control helps deter feeding by making plants unpalatable, without the use of harsh chemical pesticides. Call today to schedule!

Ticks go through four life stages: egg, larva, nymph, and adult. They need a blood meal at every stage after hatching to survive. That means tick activity isn’t just a “one season” problem. 🗓

One of the biggest concerns? Nymph-stage ticks are extremely small and difficult to spot, but they can still carry dangerous tick-borne illnesses like Lyme disease.

At ohDEER, our All-Natural Tick Control service is designed to target where ticks actually live and hide throughout their life cycle. Our saturation method focuses on leaf litter, shaded areas, overgrown vegetation, wood lines, and damp environments where ticks thrive.

By treating tick habitats consistently throughout the season, we help reduce tick activity around the areas where your family and pets spend time outside. 🌿💚

Rabbits may be cute and look harmless, but your garden tells a different story.....

They’re drawn to fresh blooms and young, tender shoots, which is why plants like hostas, tulips, and pansies are often the first to go. What looks like a thriving garden one day can quickly turn into visible damage the next. 😬

Understanding what rabbits eat is the first step in protecting your landscape. At ohDEER, our All-Natural Rabbit Control helps deter feeding by making plants unpalatable, so you can protect your yard without using harsh chemical pesticides. 🌿🐰

Because your plants deserve a chance to grow, and you deserve to enjoy them. 😍🌷

Some dogs make tick checks a whole lot harder than others 👀🐶

Thick double coats, curly fur, dark coloring and long hair can make ticks nearly impossible to spot before they attach. That’s why regular tick checks are so important after hikes, backyard playtime, or walks through tall grass.

A few areas many pet owners forget to check:
• Around the eyes and ears
• Under collars and harnesses
• Between the toes
• Under the tail and around the groin
• Around the neck and chest

The sooner you find a tick, the better. Especially during peak tick season across the Northeast. Read the full blog to learn which dogs are hardest to check for ticks and what to look for before your next outdoor adventure here 👉 oh-deer.com/blog

Every year, “The Tick Guy” Thomas Mather is asked if the tick season will be bad, and his answer is always yes. “Most tick experts will say, ‘Oh, they’re probably going to be bad,’ and they will never be wrong, because to the average person, one tick is a bad tick year,” said Mather, d...

You shouldn’t have to choose between a protected yard and a safe one!

Many traditional pest control treatments rely on chemical pesticides that can linger on:
🌾 Grass
⚽ Toys
🏡 Patio furniture
🐾 Your dog’s paws

At ohDEER, we’ve always done things differently. Our treatments are All-Natural and free of chemicals that leave behind those harmful residues.

Our solutions are safe for kids, pets and the environment. Because your backyard should be a place for you to enjoy more time outside! ☀️
