Flea Prevention in Deerfield: Signs of an Infestation & How to Prevent One

When it comes to fighting fleas, early action is always your best bet. That’s because these pests can reproduce in truly staggering quantities. With professional flea prevention throughout the Deerfield area, Mosquito Hunters^™ provides the fast-acting solutions you need to stay one step ahead of these pests.

To help you take proper action and detect the signs of a flea infestation in the early stages, let’s take a look at some important warning signs.

Signs of a Flea Infestation

Here are some common indicators that you may have a flea issue on your property:

• Excessive scratching. Are your pets scratching themselves more than usual?
• Rapid hair loss. Have your animals lost a good amount of fur?
• Inflamed skin. Are there any inflamed spots on their skin?
• Constant agitation. Do your animals seem uncomfortable?
• Pale gums. Have you noticed any changes around the gum area?

How to Prevent Fleas

If you find the signs of a flea infestation, the first thing you should do is call your vet to make sure your animals get the right treatment. The second thing you should do is call Mosquito Hunters to book your first flea control treatment. In the meantime, here are a few tips we can offer to help you reduce the potential for a flea infestation:

• Keep up with regular landscaping. Fleas love shade, so keep up with tree trimming to reduce shaded hideaways.
• Remove all clutter from your yard. Unnecessary objects should also be removed to further reduce shade.
• Inspect your pets’ fur for flea eggs. These pests will lay eggs in mammal fur, so inspect your animals on a regular basis, especially if they show any of the signs listed above.
• Avoid contact with stray animals. Fleas are extremely common, which means that stray animals are often infected. Keep your pets away from these creatures at all costs.
