There is a new product called LymeShield which uses the old Lyme vaccine (which was effective but a commercial failure) to vaccinate mice via food pellets: https://news.uthsc.edu/uthsc-researchers-lyme-disease-intervention-headed-to-market/ https://news.uthsc.edu/uthsc-researchers-lyme-disease-interv... https://usbiologic.com/ https://usbiologic.com/ https://lymeshield.com/ https://lymeshield.com/ It's a clever idea, vaccinate the carriers to break the life cycle and get rid of it for good, instead of vaccinating people. I'd like to try it but haven't been able to find a pest specialist who carries it my area yet. There is a product called Met52 also, which is used against several agricultural pests. It's a fungus that also happens to kill ticks: https://www.planetnatural.com/product/met52-ec/ https://www.planetnatural.com/product/met52-ec/ https://www.plantproducts.com/ca/images/Met52_EC_label_2015-09-11.pdf https://www.plantproducts.com/ca/images/Met52_EC_label_2015-... It seems they've changed the name/ownership of it to LALGUARD M52 GR: https://www.evergreengrowers.com/lalguard-m52-granular-met52.html https://www.evergreengrowers.com/lalguard-m52-granular-met52... I had it applied to my yard and haven't see a tick for two years. I'm hoping it took up residence in the soil.
