Fleas and ticks often turn up together in Redlands, especially in homes with dogs and cats or where wildlife passes through the yard. Flea treatment deals with the fleas living in the house and garden, not on the animal. The crew we book treats carpets, rugs, floor edges and the spots where pets sleep inside, as well as shaded parts of the yard where flea larvae develop. Pets scratching more than usual is often the first thing people notice.
Most of a flea problem is out of sight. Adult fleas on a pet are only part of it, while eggs, larvae and pupae sit in carpet fibres, cracks in floorboards, pet bedding and damp soil under decks. That is why treating the home and yard together tends to give a much better result than treating one or the other.
- Treatment of carpets, rugs and floor edges inside the home
- Attention to pet beds, favourite sleeping spots and under furniture
- Spraying of shaded yard areas, under decks and along paths
- Plain instructions on vacuuming and washing bedding before and after
- The option to add yard tick treatment in the same visit
Before the visit, vacuum all floors well, wash pet bedding and pick things up off the floor so the crew can reach the edges. Flea treatment for the pets themselves is a question for your vet, and it helps to have that sorted around the same time. Many households in Redlands book flea and tick work together to save a second call-out.
