Thermacell Tick Control Tubes 24 Pk, Kill Ticks that May Carry Lyme Disease

These work and we like them, but the price has gone up by 50% since I last bought them last fall, for no apparent reason! Not sure we will continue to use them.

this is a great option for strong tick control with only one major downside. i didn’t want anything I would apply as a spray due to having several dogs and concerns about human health risk with those sprays too. this was the only economical option I found that could avoid that altogether. it’s genius. we’ve had TERRIBLE ticks in our area, and I’m consistently seeing little or no ticks while neighbors are covered. the downside? it provides mice with a lot more cotton to nest with. we have an old shed with holes in it. the mice used this excessive cotton to make bigger, more obstructive dens - most notably in our lawn mower which caused a major motor issue. however we are getting a new shed and hope this problem will be solved. so as long as your sheds/outdoor storage is tight, you are good to go! if not, prepare for bigger nests and set more traps.

We use these every year to help control ticks around our property and they’ve always worked well for us. They’re very easy to place around the perimeter and don’t take much effort. The only downside is the price has definitely gone up over the years, which gives me pause, but we still keep coming back to them because they’re effective.

I thought these were not supposed to kill mice but we’ve found four dead mice in our yard since using these, two directly next to the tubes. So draw your own conclusions.

The theory behind these make sense. I deploy the twice a year around our property
