YOU CAN:
  • Notify us of the problem when you schedule your service.
  • Remove ticks from pets daily by applying alcohol with a cotton swab which causes the tick to pull away from your pet.
  • Put ticks in a bottle of alcohol to kill them.
  • Vacuum all infested areas to remove ticks and fleas from floors, carpet, upholstered furniture, draperies, bedding or other indoor areas frequented by pets.
  • Dispose of the vacuum bag immediately in a sealed garbage container.
  • Clean or replace pet bedding and sleeping areas.
  • Trim grass and shrub areas where pets frequent prior to service.  Watering these areas just prior to service will also enhance the effectiveness of the service.
WE WILL:

  • Treat problem areas outdoors around pet areas and grounds.
  • Recommend scheduling 2-week follow-up services until the problem is under control.
