Flea and Tick Service

Successful control of a flea infestation relies heavily on customer participation. Some situations require both house and yard treatments. If you have a pet, we suggest the animal also be treated by a licensed veterinarian at the same time we treat.

Treatment Preparations

Before the Service

o Vacuum all floors, carpets and rug areas.

o Remove all items from floors including closet floors and under beds

o Mop all tile, linoleum and wood floors thoroughly

o Vacuum under all cushions of upholstered furniture, especially if it a favorite place for your pet to sit

o Clean or Replace pet bedding

o Remove pet food items and litter from floors

o Point out areas to your technician where pets like to rest or sleep

o Arrange to have your pets treated by a veterinarian as close to your scheduled date as possible

o Fish tanks should be covered

o All people and pets need to remain off treated areas until the treated areas have dried and odor is gone (for approx. 3-4 hrs)

After the Service

o Vacuum Carpet and rugs daily or as often as possible. This activity Stimulates adult fleas hiding in cocoons to emerge where they will come in contact with treatment solution

o You may see fleas for up to 2 weeks after being treated. Daily vacuuming of infested rooms helps speed up the process of controlling fleas

o A follow-up service may be necessary where flea population is heavy
