Flea & Tick Control

There are other annoying and dangerous pests lurking in your yard that go unseen, most notably are fleas and ticks. As the weather warms up, fleas and ticks will emerge from their overwintering spots, and eggs will begin to hatch. Outside, fleas and ticks may go unnoticed by humans, that’s because what they want is animal blood, namely your cats and dogs.

Where Do Fleas and Ticks Live?

Both fleas and ticks love high temperatures and humidity but prefer to live in shady areas of your yard, such as under trees, bushes, and especially under decks and porches (where dogs and cats love to rest to avoid the sun.)

After your pet is loaded up with fleas and ticks they can track them into the house which can become a huge problem for you and your family.

Flea eggs are triggered to hatch once they come into contact with a warm body. From there, they hop onto your pet and hitch a ride into your home like a Trojan Horse. Once inside, a female flea can lay up to 50 eggs a day for six months in the carpet, beds, and sofas.

Dangers of Fleas & Ticks

Fleas and ticks can irritate your pets and cause rashes on humans but they can also carry diseases which can affect both pets and pet owners.

Fleas

  • Tapeworms: Fleas can carry tapeworms that can be ingested by cats, dogs, and even infants.
  • Allergies: Flea fecal matter and saliva can cause allergic reactions in both animals and humans.
  • Murine Typhus: Fleas contract this disease by biting infected rats. Symptoms include body aches, fever, and nausea.

Ticks

  • Lyme Disease: Causes rash, joint pains, chills, fever, and fatigue.
  • Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever: Causes fever, nausea, conjunctivitis, joint pain, and muscle pain.
