STORY

OUR

STORY

Bugs & Blades was born from personal experience.

 

Our owners, Tom O'Carmody and Chris Zinkel, are longtime Weston residents who have both battled Lyme disease. We know firsthand how serious tick-borne illnesses can be, and that's what inspired us to make a difference in our community.

​

Our mission is simple: help families enjoy their yards with greater peace of mind. Whether it's kids playing outside, pets exploring, or friends gathering in the backyard, we want you to spend less time worrying about ticks and more time enjoying the outdoors.

​

We're committed to dependable service, clear communication, and treating every property like our own. And we stand behind our work with a complimentary retreatment guarantee.

 

Locally owned. Personally committed. Proudly protecting Connecticut families.

​

​​

Our Tick Treatment Guarantee

We stand behind our work. If you find a tick after treatment, contact us and we'll return to retreat your property at no additional charge.

Guarantee Details: Complimentary retreatments are available to customers with an active service plan and are subject to the time elapsed since their last treatment, their next scheduled service, and the circumstances of the request. Requests are reviewed individually to determine the appropriate next steps.*
