Interior Flea & Tick Control

Although many types of insects are responsible for the spread of various diseases, fleas and ticks pose a particularly serious concern for the health and wellbeing of your family.

Last year alone there were over 20,000 human cases of Lyme Disease reported to the United States Center for Disease Control (C.D.C). Of course, ticks also transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Fleas may transfer to humans such illnesses as murine typhus or Dermatitus. The bubonic or “black” plague was also spread to humans by the tiny flea.

Fleas and ticks are brought into your home from the outside lawn and landscape. They come in on your pets or even on humans entering the home. Once inside, fleas can lay hundreds of eggs which hatch into larvae that can rapidly infest carpets, upholstery & hardwood floors. Because these larvae don't bite, they can build up to alarming numbers before the homeowner even realizes they are there. They will then continuously metamorphosize into the cocoon stage and hatch into adult fleas, providing an ongoing supply of large numbers of biting fleas inside the home, even if control measures are taken for the pets.

An entrenched flea infestation is very difficult to control with "bombs" or over the counter products. Indeed, we field hundreds of calls each year from frustrated homeowners wondering if their flea problems will ever end. The downfall of most common household products is that they fail to address the larvae stage of the flea.

The good news is that through extensive research and field testing, we have developed a treatment program using two very safe products (a borate and a natural pyrethrum) which will provide you with guaranteed flea control, stopping both the larvae and the adults in their tracks. The products are so safe that you may even remain in the home during the treatment.

You may choose our "a la carte" flea treatment which is guaranteed for 30 days, or get a 50% discount and extend your guaranty for one (1) full year if the interior flea treatment is ordered in concert with our GenEx 6 Family First Home Pest Control Service.
