Did you know that fleas reproduce so rapidly, that their eggs, larvae, and pupae can make up nearly 90% of their total population? This massive breeding cycle means it’s crucial to stop flea issues early on. With our professional flea control, Lawn Doctor of Mandeville & Covington can quickly target and destroy your active flea infestation. However, in order to take advantage of our expert service, you must first determine if your yard actually has fleas. Here are three expert tips for diagnosing flea issues.
How To Check Your Yard For Fleas
It’s vital to find flea issues as quickly as possible so that you can take action and secure our expert service. Here are our tips for determining if your property has fleas:
Monitor the warm and shaded areas. Fleas require habitats that are shaded, but warm. The most common place that meets these conditions is the area beneath your grass blades and just above your soil, so we recommend focusing your search here.
Pay attention to pet behavior. Fleas cause incredibly itchy bites, so pay attention to your pets. If they are scratching themselves more than normal, they might have fleas. Also, these pests will not stop at your furry friends. They will bite you as well, so if you have itchy bites on your lower legs, this is also a sign of flea activity.
Check your yard at night. With their disdain for direct sunlight, you’ll have a much easier time finding fleas in the evening. Check your lawn after sunset for masses of flea eggs that have attached to the roots of your grass blades.
