Flea & Tick

Eco-Friendly Flea and Tick Management

Flea Pest Control

 

Lifecycle: Fleas undergo a complete metamorphosis, consisting of four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. This cycle can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months, depending on environmental conditions.

 

Reproduction: Female fleas can lay up to 50 eggs per day, often directly on their host. These eggs then fall off into the environment, where they hatch into larvae.

 

Feeding Habits: Adult fleas feed on the blood of their hosts, which can include mammals like dogs, cats, and humans. Flea larvae, however, feed on organic debris found in their environment, including adult flea feces, which contain partially digested blood.

Flea Prevention in Carpets and Furniture

Habitat: Fleas prefer warm, humid environments and are commonly found in carpets, bedding, and areas frequented by pets.

 

Jumping Ability: Fleas are known for their remarkable jumping ability, which allows them to easily move between hosts and environments. They can jump up to 150 times their own body length.

 

Disease Transmission: Fleas can transmit various diseases and parasites, including the bubonic plague, typhus, and tapeworms, making them a significant concern for public health.

Tick Pest Control

 

Lifecycle: Ticks have a four-stage life cycle: egg, larva (six-legged), nymph (eight-legged), and adult (eight-legged). Most ticks need to feed on blood at each stage to progress to the next, which can take up to 3 years to complete.

 

Hosts: Ticks are parasitic and require a host to feed on for blood meals. They can attach to a variety of hosts, including mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians.

 

Feeding Process: Ticks use their mouthparts to attach to the skin of their host and can feed for several days. They secrete a substance that acts as cement, keeping them securely attached while they feed.

 

Flea & Tick Control

 

Habitat: Ticks are commonly found in wooded, grassy, or brushy areas. They wait on vegetation with their legs outstretched, ready to latch onto passing hosts, a behavior known as “questing.”

 

Disease Transmission: Ticks are vectors for several diseases, including Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and tick-borne encephalitis. They transmit pathogens to their hosts while feeding.

 

Survival: Ticks can survive for extended periods without a meal, making them resilient pests. Some species can live for several years without feeding.

Pest Busterzz hizo un excelente trabajo en mi pequeño apartamento con una fumigación profunda en cada rincón, me explicó muy bien como iba a ser el procedimiento y las medidas de seguridad que debía tomar ya que luego de rociar los químicos debía esperar varios días a que estos hicieran su efecto, al el día de hoy no he visto ni una sola cucaracha y eso me hace feliz. Gracias Alejandro por el buen trabajo y tu profesionalismo.

Whatever you’re paying Alejandro, it isn’t enough. Alejandro takes phenomenal care of our property and leaves no stone unturned when it comes to pest/rodent control. I recently needed rodent control service and Alejandro went to the moon and back to ensure our home was defended properly and odor free. His knowledge and natural ability to be two steps ahead of the situation was most impressive

Super happy to leave a review for these guys. When I came into my family’s house it had a German roach infestation in both the kitchen and the bathrooms especially, but also throughout the house. After two appointments the roaches were COMPLETELY GONE. Not one was seen after and I haven’t seen them now in months. These guys are miracle workers, professional, and timely. If I ever have a need again they will be my first call. Highly recommended!

You don't have to look any further!!! This company is AWESOME!!! I was having a major problem with iguanas that were destroying my house & I called a couple of companies and decided to go with this one. I'm so HAPPY I did. Alex was the gentleman that came to my house and within 20 minutes he got 6 big daddy's. I was floored to say the least. He's a professional and an asset to this company. He came back once a week for a few weeks and completely took care of things. I would recommend them so HIGHLY!!!THANK YOU GUYS FOR EVERYTHING. YOU'RE THE BEST

I had a really bad German roach infestation in my car 😫 After trying to treat it myself with no results, I finally decided to call Pest Busterzz. Alex came out the same day and treated my car. When I say I saw a change in 24 hours, I saw a change! No more live roaches! I stopped seeing any activity at all in the next 48 hours and I finally have my car back! Thank goodness for Alex and Pest Busterzz!
