Preparation in the Fall can drastically impact the tick population in your yard next Spring. Horticulturalist and organic land care steward David Murray will discuss simple techniques to help everyone reduce the risks of tick-borne diseases.

In this free workshop, David will examine how ticks in our yards impact our lives. He also will show us how to use simple supplies – toilet paper tubes and a low toxicity insecticide – to safely and effectively reduce tick populations along tree, shrub, and woodland borders.

This presentation is cosponsored by the Traprock Ridge Land Conservancy and East Granby Public Library.
