Fleas
Why Fleas are a Threat for Ohio Homeowners
- Fleas are relentless and tough to get rid of, making them a nightmare for any homeowner. These resourceful pests are expert jumpers, capable of leaping up to 7 inches—more than 100 times their body length. This impressive jumping ability allows them to easily hop from pet to pet or spread throughout your home unnoticed.
- They are also bloodsuckers, feeding on the blood of both animals and humans. While their bites may seem harmless at first, they can quickly lead to irritating itching, allergic reactions, and potential health risks, especially for young or vulnerable pets.
- But it doesn’t stop there! Fleas have a life cycle that makes them even harder to eliminate. They go through four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Depending on the conditions in your home, they can complete this cycle in as little as a couple of weeks or drag it out for months.
- What’s worse, flea eggs and pupae can remain dormant, just waiting for the right moment to hatch and start the cycle again. Add to that the fact that a single female flea can lay up to 50 eggs a day, and you can see how quickly a small problem can turn into a full-blown infestation.
- Fleas may be sneaky, but they leave plenty of clues behind. If you notice any of the following signs, it’s time to take action and get ahead of an infestation:
Excessive Pet Scratching:
Flea Dirt:
Bites on Humans:
Visible Fleas:
Eggs and Larvae:

- Gaps near utility lines, vents, and piping

- Hidden voids pests use to nest or travel undetected
- We apply products with precision, using professional-grade materials that hold up over time without disrupting your routine.
