Fleas can reproduce rapidly at room temperature, making your home an ideal year-round environment.
Fleas require blood to survive and reproduce, in the absence of a pet, humans
become the flea's blood meal.
Fleas are naturally protected from pesticides during various states of their life cycle.
Most pesticides only kill fleas in their larva and adult stages, leaving the unhatched
eggs and pupae to survive, develop and reproduce again.
Fleas live on the outside of the body and need to feed on the blood of these animals in order to produce eggs. Because fleas usually feed and lay their eggs while the pet is sleeping, the pet's resting areas are where the most fleas will be found.
Tick Control Tips:
Ticks are notoriously difficult to control in and around homes. Repeated treatments are often required to finally eliminate the ticks. In some cases where wildlife may be continuing to reintroduce ticks to a yard, continued tick control services may be necessary.
