Inspection

Our Flea Control Service begins with a thorough inspection. We will inspect all areas of the home where fleas are suspected. Once the presence of fleas is confirmed, we will create a customized treatment plan.

Treatments

Once the presence of fleas is confirmed, we will begin treating the affected areas with an adulticide and larvicide. This combination is crucial to breaking the life cycle of the fleas and getting complete control.

Customer Vacuuming

One of the most crucial parts of any successful flea control strategy is vacuuming. This is done daily to stimulate egg hatch. Doing this will not only significantly increase the flea control results, but it will greatly reduce the time it takes to get control.

Preventative Pet Treatments

Once the fleas have been controlled, it is extremely important to treat any pets with a monthly flea preventative. This will significantly reduce the likelihood of a re-infestation.

Fleas will thrive shaded, moist areas like lawns, pet beds, crawl spaces, and carpeted floors. Once they hitch a ride on your pets or clothing, they will spread like a wildfire throughout your home.

A single female flea can lay, 50 eggs a day and those eggs will be deep in carpets, furniture, and cracks in the floor pretty much impossible to just wipe away. Without proper treatment, an infestation can reappear within just a few weeks!
