Southampton sits at the heart of one of the highest Lyme disease risk zones in New York. The combination of dense deer populations, wooded property borders, and the warm, humid summers of the East End creates ideal conditions for deer tick activity from early spring right through to the first hard frost. Oceanview Landscapes provides professional tick control programs for Southampton properties of all sizes — from village lots to multi-acre estates. Our licensed team applies proven spray treatments at the right times, in the right places, using both organic and synthetic options tailored to your family's needs.
We schedule three targeted applications per season, timed to the three critical windows in the deer tick lifecycle:
We offer both organic (cedar oil-based) and synthetic treatment options. We'll recommend the right approach for your property, family, and any pets.
Ticks live at the edges — the transition zones between your manicured lawn and ornamental beds, woodland borders, stone walls, and naturalized areas that characterize Southampton properties. We target these areas specifically, along with outdoor living spaces where people and pets spend time.
Tick control pairs naturally with our landscape maintenance, deer management, and plant disease control services. For Southampton properties that want comprehensive protection and care, we offer integrated seasonal programs under one dedicated property manager.

No later than mid-April, before peak nymph-stage tick activity in May and June. We're scheduling 2026 programs now — contact us to get on the calendar before the season starts.
Our organic programs use cedar oil-based treatments that are highly effective and safe for children and pets once dry. Synthetic options provide longer residual protection and are better suited for larger properties with significant woodland borders.
Most Southampton properties benefit from three applications per year. Properties with heavy woodland borders or high deer traffic may benefit from a fourth.
Yes. Deer are the primary host for deer ticks, so properties with high deer pressure typically have high tick pressure as well. Ask us about our integrated deer and tick management programs.
