Flea Control
We love our furry family, but sometimes they can come home with ticks and fleas. Ticks like to hide in tall grass and trees. Fleas are more unexpected because they travel directly from host to host. Sometimes all it takes is an encounter with another pet who has fleas and your dog or cat can get them like that. Fleas are wingless, however, they can jump from host to host. They also reproduce quickly, which can cause a problem.
Types of Fleas
There are several types of fleas, one of which can inhabit humans, as well as pets or fowl. It is almost unheard of that a human would be a sustainable, viable host to these fleas, though possible. If a pet has fleas, it is important that the pet be treated by a veterinarian (or owner) either before or during the extermination of the home. Then it’s up to your pest control provider to treat the interior of the home. Paffy’s Pest Control has tackled some touch flea cases, many with only one treatment. However, Paffy’s always offers a warranty to ensure that you are getting the most coverage for your money.
Paffy’s uses has a couple different products at its disposal for flea extermination. Using dual products that both target fleas ensures their elimination from your home. Paffy’s would use one on the first visit, and if there were some stragglers—for example, if some had just hatched after we put the chemical down, we may need to retreat or spot treat—Paffy’s would use another product.
Flea Treatments
All of Paffy’s products are thoroughly tested and are approved by both the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), ensuring they are safe for a wide range of environments, including homes, commercial multi-housing units, apartment complexes, warehouses, factories, and much more.

Females typically lay between four to eight eggs after each blood meal, which accumulates to an impressive total of around 400 to 500 eggs over the course of their lifetime. This reproductive strategy allows them to ensure the continuation of their species. The eggs are meticulously laid on or between the hairs of the host, providing them with a sheltered environment that offers protection and a degree of warmth necessary for the eggs to develop successfully. This careful placement significantly enhances the chances of survival for the next generation.
