Flea & Tick Control
​Stop the Itch — Effective Flea & Tick Control for Your Home and Pets
Fleas
-
Fleas in or around the home are typically associated with dogs or cats.
-
Fleas are brown, laterally flattened insects known for their hopping abilities.
-
The same flea species that feeds on pets can also bite humans, causing itching and irritation.
-
Disease transmission by fleas is relatively infrequent in some areas, but fleas from rodents can carry and transmit diseases like plague.
Ticks
-
Ticks are small, oval, and flattened creatures, with hard and leathery bodies when unfed.
-
Are most active in the spring as vegetation starts to grow.
-
By July or August (in higher elevations), adult or nymph ticks that haven't found hosts seek shelter to avoid summer heat.
-
Ticks are most abundant in brushy areas with sufficient vegetation to support various animals.
-
Tick bites can be dangerous due to the effects of the bite itself and the transmission of disease-causing microbes.
-
In Washington, ticks can transmit diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Lyme disease, tick-borne relapsing fever, and others.
