Flea and Tick
Management

Flea or tick infestations can be a serious problem for any homeowner. Both of these pests spread diseases, and both will make your life miserable.

Fleas are usually brought into the house on pets. Once they get inside your home, they take full advantage of the warm, comfortable surroundings. They can remain dormant for months without feeding. They breed rampantly in the carpet and furniture. They torment your dogs or cats. Then, they begin biting you and your children. Usually, the bites begin around the ankles, but they will eventually spread until the fleas get into the hair on your body and head. If you scratch the bites, your skin will break open and become infected. Fleas are tenacious survivors. It takes a professional to completely rid your home of a flea infestation.

Ticks can be an even worse problem. A casual walk through the woods or a picnic on the lawn can give a tick the chance it needs to latch onto you and suck your blood. As they suck, they introduce viruses to your bloodstream that will make you sick. Lyme disease is incurable. Antibiotics can reduce the symptoms, but once you contract Lyme disease, you will likely have it for the rest of your life. Rocky Mountain spotted fever is another disease spread by ticks.
