Pest Guide: Fleas

Fleas can quickly grow into a huge population and can become a serious problem that requires the attention of our Charleston pest control services. Typically these pests are brought into your home by a pet and then once they have infested your home they will start to expand the size of their colony. A female flea has the ability to lay up to 18 eggs every day and when you multiply that number by just 20 female fleas then you are up to 2,000 flea eggs in just one week.

Once you call for our pest control services for fleas it is important to remove as many objects from the floor such as things under the bed and childrens toys. You will also want to wash all bedding, vacuum the rugs, remove and dispose of the vacuum bag and remove pets prior to the actual treatment and be prepared to leave your home for approximately four hours in order for the floors to dry. All pets should be properly treated for fleas as well. If you are ready for an inspection please make sure to contact our Charleston pest control services right away.
