Flea Control

Flea Control

If fleas pester your furry friends, they will soon be a problem for the entire family. Don’t dismiss fleas as merely an itchy nuisance. They carry diseases, allergens, and germs. Blood-sucking fleas represent a potential health risk for everyone in the home and a certain misery for sensitive people or pets. Effective flea pest control is essential to protecting your family’s health and happiness.

Signs You May Have an Outdoor Flea Infestation

Fleas are tiny, and they move incredibly fast. You may have a serious infestation before you spot a single one. So, it’s essential to be alert for other signs of flea activity. And remember, every indoor infestation begins with fleas outside the home. Watch for the following signs of fleas indoors and out.

• Excessive scratching in your pets (or humans!).
• Brown or black specks on your pet’s skin, euphemistically known as “flea dirt.”
• Small, red bites on your legs or ankles.
• Black specks that look like pepper on leaves, tall strands of grass, or anywhere in your yard that’s warm and humid.
• Signs of wildlife on your property.

A surefire way to determine if you have fleas on your property is to perform the “white-sock test.” Put on white socks pulled up above your calves and walk throughout your property. Walk through any tall grass. If fleas are present, they are likely to jump onto your feet or lower legs and can be seen as brown or black flecks against the white sock.

If you see signs of a flea infestation or your property flunks the white-sock test, call Mosquito Sheriff for flea pest control.
