Our team at Longhorn Termite & Pest Control has been working in the pest control business for the past 55 years, and we want to help you keep your home free of insects, rodents, and other unwanted visitors. In our experience, one of the most troublesome pests for pet owners is fleas. Not only can these nasty insects cause your animal companions serious discomfort, but they can also infest your carpets and other fabrics.
If you have noticed that your feet get itchy when you walk on your carpets, then we encourage you to reach out to us to schedule flea removal services as soon as possible. In this article, we will provide an overview of how our professional flea removal services work.
- Assessment – The first step in our flea removal process is conducting an assessment. Our team will inspect your home for evidence of fleas and take note of where the insects are found, in what numbers, and in what stage of life. This information will help us formulate the best treatment plan for your needs.
- Treatment – Next, we will use chemical pesticides to eliminate the flea infestation. We use a combination of sprays, fogs, and insect growth regulators to target fleas at various stages of their life cycle. Sprays and foggers are useful for targeting adult fleas, and growth regulators ensure that flea eggs and larvae can’t grow into adulthood.
- Follow-Up – Our flea removal services will eliminate your current flea infestation, but to make the service effective in the long run, you will need to take steps to prevent your pet from bringing in more fleas. Work with your veterinarian to protect your pet from fleas so they can’t carry live fleas inside your home.
