THERMACELL TICK CONTROL TUBES

Welcome to a new level of tick protection!
For over 15 years, Thermacell has provided
top-rated backyard mosquito protection. Now,
we’re proud to introduce a solution that helps
protect against another menace – the tick.
Because ticks can carry Lyme and other
serious diseases, they are not only annoying
but dangerous. Each year there are over
300,000 cases of Lyme disease reported in the
U.S and that number is rising.
Thermacell Tick Control Tubes provide an
easy to apply, no-spray way to kill ticks in your
backyard. By working with nature, Thermacell
kills young ticks early in their lifecycle before
they can harm people and pets.
This booklet explains how the product works,
along with when and where to use it. Please
contact us with any questions, comments or
suggestions at tickhelp@thermacell.com.

QUICK START GUIDE
Placing Thermacell Tick Control Tubes in your
yard is easy and can be done in a few minutes. No
preparation or cleanup is needed.
Simply put the tubes around your yard in places with
coverage, such as flowerbeds, bushes, woodpiles,
stone walls, and sheds. Place tubes no more than
10 yards apart twice a year – once in the spring and
again in late summer.

HOW THERMACELL TICK
CONTROL TUBES WORK
Young ticks feed primarily on mice, while adult ticks
feed on pets, deer and humans.
Thermacell Tick Control Tubes are made from
biodegradable cardboard filled with a specially treated
material that kills ticks. Mice seek out this ideal nest
material and collect it to line their nests underground.
Mice get the material on their fur while moving
around the nest. Ticks feeding on the mice die from
exposure to the treated material.
Thermacell Tick Control Tubes interrupt the tick
lifecycle, killing ticks before they can harm you or
your family.
