Good advice. When I lived where grass and yard were a thing, I kept it mowed and every spring I sprayed with some stuff that devestated the bugs. I'll see if I cna find the product. Usually sprayed again mid summer and if a wet one in the early fall. Never had any ticks in the yard. I ownder if wolfdogs have a natural immunity to them. I 10 years, some of it maving through woods and high grass I've only found 1 or 2 ticks. She can be a handful at times but I've come to love the old bitch.
Found it. Keep the yard cut and as dry as possible and spray with this stuff. No mas insectos.
Antother good more natural way of insect control is diatomaceous earth. Itsearth made from the microscopic shells of diatoms and mined, much of it form Colorado. The particles ate so tiny that whem bugs crawl through it the particles get into their systems and cut them to ribbons. Perfectly safe, some farmers and ranchers put it right into the sweetfeed. If you just sprinkle it around the house cricket and roaches will crawl through it.
