Ticks + Mosquitoes are Bad This Season! Try These Plants to Help Keep the Problem at Bay.

Whether you have found a few of these little ticks crawling on your skin already this season or not, they are out on the prowl! To help reduce your sightings of them this season, try strategically planting these tick-repelling herbs + flowers in your landscape to help keep these critters at bay:

  • Lemongrass

  • Lantana 

  • Scented Geranium 

  • Mint

  • Sage 

  • Lavender

The best part about these plants? These options also all help with those pesky mosquitoes that are also ravenous this season! Don’t get stuck inside this season because of bug-fear - take back your yard (and your summer) with the help of these plants!

We offer all of these varieties seasonally, so be sure to stop out to see what we have in stock!
