Fleas are terrible this time of year!

Many homeowners think a quick bath with Dawn dish soap or one flea spray will solve a flea problem. While those methods may kill some adult fleas, they won’t stop a full-blown infestation.

Here’s why:

🔸 Only about 5% of the flea population is living on your pet.
🔸 The other 95% is hiding in your home and yard as eggs, larvae, and pupae.

A single female flea can lay dozens of eggs every day, and those eggs can fall into:
✔️ Carpet
✔️ Furniture
✔️ Pet bedding
✔️ Cracks and crevices of hard floors/porch’s
✔️ Vehicles
✔️ Shaded areas of the yard

To truly get rid of fleas, you need to break the life cycle.

✅ Treat all pets with a quality flea product.
✅ Wash pet bedding in hot water.
✅ Vacuum carpets, hard floors and furniture thoroughly and daily for up two weeks.
✅ Treat the home and, if needed, the yard.
✅ Be patient—new fleas can continue to emerge for several weeks. (Hence the need to keep vacuuming)
