Fleas
Fleas cause itching and discomfort for both pets and people. A small problem can turn into a major infestation quickly. Home Guard IPM treats both the home and yard to break the flea life cycle and prevent reinfestation. Our experienced technicians begin with a thorough inspection to locate activity zones, entry points, and environmental factors that may be contributing to the infestation.
We educate homeowners on prevention, provide ongoing monitoring if needed, and offer tailored advice based on each pest's habits. Whether it's a seasonal invader or a year-round threat, we apply proven, environmentally-conscious methods to protect your home and family.

Our Treatment Approach
We use insect growth regulators indoors and yard sprays outdoors to eliminate adult fleas and eggs. Our approach includes an integrated pest management (IPM) strategy, using both physical and chemical solutions. We select products that are safe for families and pets while maximizing effectiveness. In addition, we seal cracks, improve sanitation recommendations, and follow up with monitoring or retreatment as needed to ensure pests stay gone for good.
