Flea & Tick Control Program
East Coast Lawn is proud to offer insect and pest control services to Maryland and Virginia. That includes our flea and tick control program.
These bugs are parasites, which means they feed on the blood of other animals. This can include humans, but our pets are at the highest risk.
Fleas can cause medical problems in pets including flea allergy dermatitis (FAD), tapeworms, hair loss due to scratching, and secondary skin irritations. In large numbers, fleas can cause anemia from blood loss, especially in puppies and kittens. Some pets have been known to die if the anemia is severe.
Once they infest a household, fleas are notoriously difficult to get rid of. That is because they can live in fur, hair, blankets, soft furniture, and more.
Ticks are another problem many homeowners face in their yards. They are especially prevalent near long grass and forests. Ticks can transmit serious diseases, including Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. These diseases also infect humans.
Insect control is a service you do not want to miss if you have pets. Protect your furry friends, and reclaim your summer cookouts! Call East Coast Lawn now to learn more.
