Technica Flea Solutions

Our Treatment Solution

Chemical Spray Treatment — A targeted residual insecticide applied to carpets, pet bedding, furniture, and cracks where fleas hide. This method kills adult fleas on contact and continues to work for weeks by eliminating newly hatched fleas.

What Are Fleas?

Fleas are tiny, wingless insects that feed on the blood of animals and humans. They have powerful legs that allow them to jump great distances — moving quickly between hosts and hiding in carpets, bedding, and furniture.

The most common type found in homes is the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis), but don’t let the name fool you — these fleas can affect dogs, other pets, and even bite humans.

Flea life cycle:

• Eggs: Laid on pets or in their bedding, carpets, or upholstery

• Larvae: Hatch within a few days and feed on organic material in their surroundings

• Pupae: Develop in a cocoon and can remain dormant for weeks

• Adults: Emerge when they sense movement or heat, ready to feed and reproduce

Fleas reproduce quickly — a single female can lay up to 50 eggs a day — which means a small problem can turn into a full-blown infestation fast.

Signs of a Flea Infestation

Not sure if you have a flea problem? Here are the most common signs:

✔️ Pet Scratching and Biting — If your pet is constantly scratching or biting at its skin, fleas may be to blame.

✔️ Small, Red Bites on Skin — Flea bites appear as small, itchy red bumps, usually around ankles or lower legs.

✔️ Flea Dirt — Look for small black specks (flea feces) in pet bedding, carpets, or furniture.

✔️ Seeing Fleas — You might notice fleas jumping on your pet, furniture, or even your own legs.

✔️ Pale Gums in Pets — Severe flea infestations can cause anemia in pets due to blood loss.

Early detection is crucial — fleas spread rapidly and are notoriously difficult to eliminate without professional help.

Prevention

Preventing fleas takes consistent effort, but here’s how you can reduce the risk of an infestation:

• Regular Pet Care: Use vet-approved flea prevention products for pets year-round.

• Vacuum Frequently: Vacuum carpets, rugs, furniture, and pet areas to remove flea eggs and larvae.

• Wash Pet Bedding: Clean pet bedding, blankets, and toys in hot water weekly.

• Seal Entry Points: Repair gaps, cracks, and entry points where rodents or wildlife (which carry fleas) can enter your home.

• Yard Maintenance: Keep grass cut short and remove debris where fleas might hide outdoors.

Even with the best prevention efforts, fleas can still find a way into your home — that’s where we come in.
