FLEA CONTROL

Flea infestations can be challenging to detect, especially in the early stages. However, there are several signs that can indicate their presence. One common sign is excessive scratching and grooming by your pets, as fleas tend to bite and feed on their blood. Additionally, you may notice small, red, itchy bites on your own skin. Flea droppings, which resemble tiny black specks, may also be visible on your pet's fur, bedding, or other areas they frequent.

Another way to check for fleas is by using a flea comb to inspect your pet's fur. If fleas or their droppings are present, they will stick to the comb. You can also place a white towel or paper under your pet while brushing them, making it easier to spot any fleas or droppings that fall off. If you suspect a flea infestation, it is crucial to contact a professional pest control service like Patriot Pest Management to assess and treat the issue effectively.

The time it takes to eliminate fleas from your home depends on several factors, including the severity of the infestation, the size of your property, and the treatment methods used. Generally, professional flea control treatments involve multiple visits to ensure complete extermination and prevent re-infestation. Typically, the process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months.
