We provide a comprehensive service that includes powerful treatments to destroy adult fleas, as well as tactics for eliminating their eggs, larvae, and pupae.
Fleas can be transported to your yard by wildlife, so the problem is difficult to contain. For this reason, we always encourage our clients to remain vigilant and adopt good habits for flea prevention when we’re not around. Let’s take a look at ways to make your yard less flea-friendly.
Protecting Your Yard From Fleas
While you should always rely on our professional treatments for support against an active flea infestation, there are a number of steps you can take on your own to prevent future flea issues. Here are our suggestions:
- Do not over-water. If you over-water your lawn, you will create an environment that is very attractive to fleas. Instead, we recommend only applying about one inch of moisture per week.
- Remove clutter. In addition to their love of moisture, fleas also love the shade. Keep your yard clear of any random objects that might provide extra shade for these pests.
- Protect your yard from wildlife. If you live in an area that is adjacent to a forest or other source of wildlife, you should consider adding some type of fencing around your yard to prevent deer and other mammals from entering. These creatures often carry fleas that will then settle in your yard and attach to any pets you have on your property.
- Allow more sunlight to hit your yard. Fleas love the shade, so by pruning your trees and shrubs, you can reduce their potential habitat.
