Eliminating Dangerous Ticks
In many areas of the USA you can't think "outdoors" without also thinking about ticks. If you have indoor-outdoor pets you might think about ticks being indoors as well! Ticks are bad enough just for their bite, but they are vectors of nasty diseases. They act like living hypodermic needles to innoculate their hosts with misery or even death. Not just your pets... people as well.
24 million year old tick in amber
Ticks are arachnids, which are a very ancient 8 legged family of creatures also including: spiders, scorpions, mites (including chiggers). Hard bodied ticks such as seed, dog and deer ticks, have fossils dating back 35 million years. A soft body tick was found in amber 90 million years old... probably from a bird, but that was the age of dinosaurs. Can't you just picture a Tyrannosaurus rex scratching away at his neck like a cat! There would be Richter 3.0 earthquakes! Obviously, ticks are here to stay and we are stuck with them, so we need to cope the best we can. Here is a wikipedia article about ticks... very good coverage!

This is another great source of information.

The only way to truly control tick problems is to eliminate the ticks. This is not easy due to their toughness and life cycles.
Mammal wildlife hosts the ticks and then the ticks drop from them between host feedings and later acquires another host... maybe Fido, Fluffy, little Junior or you. If you keep the host wildlife away from your grounds area, the ticks cannot drop off and infest the grounds. It isn't likely you can keep all wildlife away, but key wildlife reduction equals tick reduction.
As mentioned in the Wikipedia article, Guineafowl can help eliminate ticks by hunting them down. Although not mentioned, chickens do a good job as well in mowed and open wooded areas. Letting them free range your grounds should help eliminate tick populations locally. Of course this isn't practical everywhere, but it works where it makes sense.
Eliminating excess presence of the tick hosting mammal wildlife and protecting free ranging helper birds will help in eliminating local tick populations.
Phantom wildlife deterrents have a dual benefit towards tick elimination. They discourage several species of wildlife which are well known contributors to dispersing ticks in areas they browse and roam. Deer (and relations), Coyote, Fox, Raccoon, Skunk, Opossum, Bobcat and various others. Additionally, using Phantom wildlife deterrents keeps the above mentioned predators away from the area, which in turn protects free ranging birds that clean up any ticks that do come into the grounds. Note that this technique is completely without the use of poisons or insecticides, and does not hurt any animals. The deterrents also protect your pets from direct assaults by Coyote, Bobcat and Fox! ...and disease exposure from Raccoon. Multiple benefits from an easy economical system!
This fenceless deterrent technique can be further combined with others such as the deer mouse treatment mentioned in the above Wikipedia article. Periodically live cage trapping of any; yard bunnies, squirrels, chipmunks etc; is a good measure as well. They can be sprayed with "cat flea and tick spray" insecticide while in the trap cage, and released again or relocated.
Tick control tip... When you pull ticks off of your pet, the ticks should be killed in some manner. Tossing live ticks away will result in them hatching into thousands of tiny nymph ticks that will get on you and your pets. They do not die just because you remove them.
