Your pet may be a member of your family, but sometimes it’s easy for them to invite an unwelcomed guest to take up residence in your carpets, couches, and corners, unintentionally causing a big household problem.
Once you’ve established that your pet is infested with fleas or ticks, time is of the essence. But be sure to remain calm and take things one step at a time.

Keep Your Pet Away
To ensure the safety of you and your animals, it is recommended your veterinarian treat your pet for fleas and/or ticks on the day Ashcraft Termite and Pest provides service. This should prevent your pet from re-introducing the pest into the treated environment, as well as remove the insect for the benefit of the animal’s health. Make sure to remove any pet feeding dishes or any other pet-related items from the treatment area. Please keep your pet out of treated areas until materials are dry (approximately one hour) and ventilate the interior during that time.
Keep Your Yard Pest Free
Fleas prefer cool, shady, moist places and especially like to hide in shrubs, leaf litter and underneath lawn structures. Try to keep the areas around your house as trimmed and clear as possible.
