What are the steps for flea and tick control?
Professional flea and tick control is designed to reduce the number of fleas and ticks in your yard. These pests are common and are often found outdoors in areas with a lot of greenery and trees. While these pests are common, professional flea and tick control can minimize their presence in or around your home. There are a few things that go into flea and tick control:
- Pick up yard debris and vacuum inside your house at least once a week
- Discourage animals from coming into your yard (other than your pets) with fences because they can carry fleas and ticks
- Create a barrier from your home and surrounding wooded areas with wood chips
- Apply a pesticide to cut down on the number of fleas and ticks
- Treat your pets with flea and tick prevention
- Bring in a flea and tick control professional
Prevention is an important part of protecting your home from fleas and ticks. Unfortunately, once you have an issue with these pests, they are extremely hard to eradicate completely. If you’ve already seen fleas and ticks in your yard, an exterminator will need to use professional-grade treatment to eliminate them.
