Why New York Flea Infestations Are Best Left To The Pros

Have you ever shared your pest problems with others on the internet? Many people do. The internet message boards are filled with frightening tales of nuisance pest infestations. If you go searching for stories of flea infestations, there is one phrase you're going to read a lot: "fleas kept coming back!" That's because many DIY pest control solutions aren't solutions at all. They deal with the symptoms of a flea infestation but leave the root of the problem unaddressed. Or, they work a little but aren't a complete solution on their own. Here are some things you should know if you're considering DIY flea control.

Chemicals
When frustration and desperation set in, homeowners sometimes turn to chemicals. They may use sprays or bombs to take out those fleas, but not only can these products make a family sick, but they are also rarely successful! These products are topical and have a serious problem getting to the fleas in rooms with furniture in them. Bombs work best in a home with rugs, awaiting new tenants and free of furniture (and people), though professional treatment is still safer and more effective.
Professional Flea Control
There are two reasons to seriously consider a professional when a flea infestation breaks out. The first reason is that when fleas go untreated, they can continue to plague you and your pets with itchy bites and spread illnesses such as murine typhus, flea allergy dermatitis, and tapeworm. Second, professionals use protocols established by pest control experts to systematically track and eliminate every last flea in your home, so you can know for sure that your flea infestation has been arrested.
