  • Created with Fabric.js 5.2.4 How can I tell if I have a flea infestation in my home?

    Signs of a flea infestation include pets scratching more than usual, seeing tiny dark specks (flea dirt) on pets or bedding, and noticing small bites on your skin. Fleas can infest even homes without pets, as they can hitch a ride on humans or rodents.

  • Created with Fabric.js 5.2.4 Are all flea species the same, or do I need different treatments for different types of fleas?

    While there are many species of fleas, the treatment methods for home infestations are generally effective across different types. It's important to treat both the environment and the pets.

  • Created with Fabric.js 5.2.4 Is DIY flea control effective, or should I hire a professional pest control service?

    DIY flea control, including thorough vacuuming and washing bedding in hot water, can help manage the situation but may not fully eradicate an infestation. Professional pest control services can provide more effective and long-lasting solutions, especially in severe cases.
