Fleas control
The adult fleas biting your ankles are only about five percent of the problem. The rest, the eggs, larvae and pupae, are in the carpet, the bedding and the soil, waiting to hatch. That’s why fleas come roaring back after a single spray. We treat for the whole life cycle.
How to tell it’s fleas.
- →Itchy bites around ankles and lower legs
- →Pets scratching, or flea dirt (black specks) in their coat
- →Tiny dark insects jumping in carpet or bedding
- →A flare-up after a property has been vacant for a while
Why a single spray never holds.
Our approach to fleas.
We treat inside and out with an APVMA-registered product that includes an insect growth regulator, so it breaks the life cycle and not just the adults. We focus on carpet, pet resting areas, skirting and the yard. Your part is vacuuming thoroughly and treating the pets with your vet’s product at the same time, which we’ll walk you through.
Fleas is treated as part of our general pest treatment service.
