Flea Control & Removal

Sometime in their lives, most pets will end up with a flea infestation. There's really nothing you can do to stop that, because they can easily be picked up from other animals, in the park or any public space that your pet goes to.

There are things that you can do to minimize the chance of getting a flea infestation in your home though, and there are plenty of flea treatments available when your pet does pick one up.

Flea Treatment

There are a number of different flea treatments out there, and to get the best one for your pet, it is best to talk to a pest control expert or go and see your vet. They will be able to tell you the safest and most effective treatment in your situation. For instance there are some treatments that are good for dogs, but that can be dangerous for cats because of the ingredients in the cure. Others are just general rules of thumb. For example, a flea bath is a good solution for a dog but cats generally hate getting wet so that might not be the best thing for them. There are lots of alternatives though, from lotion to tablets which kill fleas. Caution should be taken however, as some chemical solutions do risk harming your pet at the same time as killing the fleas.

Treating the Enviroment

Strange as it may seem, the most important part of flea treatment is not actually treating your pet, it is treating the environment.

The reason for this is that it is only adult fleas which live on your pet, while their eggs grow in carpets, bedding, the garden, skirting boards, basically everywhere else that your pet goes.

The upshot of this is that even if you get all of the fleas that are currently living on your pet, it won't be long before they get a new infestation from the new fleas growing to maturity around them.

But more than anything, investing in the professional services of an expert pest control company such as CK PEST SOLUTIONS, is that the job is done quickly, effectively and with minimum fuss.
