In addition to cutting down on their outdoor time, be sure to keep your pets away from wild animals and strays.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eliminate shaded habitats around your yard.<\/strong>\u00a0Fleas and ticks both love the shade, so keep up with lawn maintenance to reduce overgrowth and limit the amount of shade on your property.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Conduct flea and tick inspections beneath their fur.\u00a0<\/strong>If your animal has fleas, you will find flea eggs embedded within their fur. For ticks, you can search for bites by inspecting their body with your fingers, making sure to get beneath their fur and feel their direct skin. If you find a tick attached, take your time and remove it carefully with a pair of tweezers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Speak with your vet.\u00a0<\/strong>Depending on your specific animals, your vet should be able to provide flea and tick protocols to help reduce this issue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Our Professional Flea and Tick Prevention in Grand Rapids<\/h2>\n<p>To prevent these pests, you need to get ahead of their massive breeding cycles, reduce shaded areas in your yard, take action to protect your pets, and secure our expert barrier treatments.
