FLEA CONTROL
Since fleas can be difficult to control and require specialized treatments we separate this service to target exclusively fleas. There are many types of fleas such as the Human fleas, Oriental rat flea, Northern rat fleas, Sticktight flea, and Mouse flea. We will mainly discuss the most common type problem fleas which is the dog and cat fleas.
Dog fleas are very similar to Cat fleas but they are mainly found on wild animals rather than on domestic pets. Since both species are intermediate host of the dog tapeworm they can become a danger of children ingesting the infected fleas. One way you can detect the presence of fleas place a white sock on the carpet to produce a sample. Since cat fleas are the most common problem that you the customer may encounter look below to learn more about them.
Fleas have different life cycles so that is why it is important to treat a certain way to eliminate flea problems.(1) egg, (2) Larvae, (3) adult
