Fleas: What You Need to Know

Rugs and carpets are popular flea hiding places, and fleas can easily breed deep within household carpeting. Where they can avoid light and low humidity levels, they burrow into the fibers. When larvae mature into adults, they hop onto an unsuspecting host, like your dog, and this is when you start to notice an infestation.

Fleas are barely an eighth of an inch long, but they have an 8-inch vertical jump. They have bodies that are flat on the sides and spines that face backward. Despite spending the majority of their time on the host animal, fleas can spread throughout the house when their eggs drop off pets as they roam around the house and yard. When they start reproducing inside your house, they become a much bigger problem. These teeny, jumping insects are a real annoyance to homeowners, but they don't have to be.

Get your peace back. Call Rockwall Mosquito and Pest Control to get fleas removed.

Pre-Service Flea Service Check List:

Preparing your house for flea treatment is an important step to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment and to eliminate fleas from your home. Here are some steps you can take to prepare your house for flea treatment:

1. Vacuum thoroughly: Start by vacuuming all the floors, carpets, rugs, and upholstered furniture in your home. Pay special attention to areas where your pets spend most of their time. Vacuuming helps remove adult fleas, eggs, larvae, and pupae, reducing the flea population before the treatment.


2. Clear the floors: Remove any clutter, toys, and items from the floors to allow the flea treatment to reach all areas effectively. This includes picking up pet bedding, pillows, and blankets. By clearing the floors, you provide better access for the treatment to reach all areas where fleas may hide.

3 .Launder fabrics: Wash all pet bedding, pillows, blankets, and any other removable fabric items in hot water. High temperatures help kill fleas, larvae, and eggs. Dry the items thoroughly using a high heat setting in the dryer. This step helps eliminate any fleas or eggs present in these items.

4. Seal food and utensils: Flea service requires you to vacate the premises temporarily. Therefore, please make sure to store all food items in airtight containers or remove them from the house. Cover utensils and kitchenware to prevent any contamination.

5. Move and protect sensitive items: If you have any delicate or sensitive items, such as fish tanks, reptile habitats, or valuable electronics, carefully move them out of the treatment area. Consult with the flea treatment professionals for specific instructions on how to protect these items during the process.

6. Follow instructions: Read and follow the instructions provided by the flea treatment product or the professional service. Different products and treatments may have specific guidelines for preparation, application, and post-treatment precautions. Adhering to these instructions will ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment.

7. Keep pets away: During the flea treatment process, keep your pets and their belongings (bedding, toys, etc.) out of the treated areas. Follow the instructions provided by Rockwall Mosquito and Pest Control regarding when it is safe to reintroduce pets back into the treated areas.
