Did You Know?

Fleas jump up to 150 times their own body length — equivalent to a human clearing a 75-story building in one leap.
Ticks can't fly, jump, or drop from trees. They "quest" by stretching out their legs on tall grass and grabbing onto passing hosts.
A single female flea lays up to 50 eggs per day — about 2,000 in her lifetime. That's why infestations explode seemingly overnight.
Ticks have existed for at least 100 million years — they once fed on dinosaurs. Preserved specimens have been found in amber with dinosaur feathers attached.
Many tick species produce natural antifreeze compounds, allowing them to survive freezing temperatures and resume feeding once they thaw in spring.
Fleas detect carbon dioxide and body heat from several feet away. Dormant pupae can lie in carpets for months, then hatch within seconds when they sense vibrations or warmth.

What You Can Do

Year-round flea and tick medication is the single most effective step. Consult your vet for the right product.
Vacuum carpets, rugs, and upholstery regularly to pick up flea eggs, larvae, and pupae. Empty the bag outside immediately.
Keep grass trimmed, remove leaf litter, and clear brush. Ticks thrive in tall, shady vegetation.
After hiking, check yourself, children, and pets thoroughly. Ticks attach in hidden areas like behind ears, underarms, and scalp.
Hot-water washing pet beds and blankets weekly breaks the flea lifecycle and prevents reinfestation.
A 3-foot barrier of gravel or wood chips between your lawn and wooded areas deters ticks from crossing into your yard.

What to Avoid

Basic flea collars only protect near the neck. Vet-recommended oral or topical treatments provide full-body protection.
Squeezing can push disease-carrying fluids into the wound. Use fine-tipped tweezers and pull straight out with steady pressure.
Flea pupae lie dormant for months. Stopping after one round often leads to reinfestation from eggs you can't see.
A hot match can cause the tick to regurgitate bacteria into the wound, increasing infection risk. Use tweezers instead.

Tick Control Services

Protecting you from Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses

Most often, ticks establish themselves around your home by riding in on deer passing through your yard. These bloodsucking pests set up in shady areas, waiting for passing victims to grab onto.

They're generally about the size of an apple seed, but they'll look larger if they've recently fed.

⚠️ Health Warning

Ticks carry Lyme Disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and many other dangerous illnesses. Don't risk having them bite you or your loved ones.

If you're seeing significant numbers of ticks in your yard, ATCO offers tick control that can eliminate these aggravating insects effectively. We utilize eco-friendly treatments to reduce tick populations, and then offer landscaping suggestions to deter wildlife from entering your property and bringing ticks with them.

πŸ“‹ Signs of Ticks

  • Ticks on pets after outdoor time
  • Tick bites on family members
  • Wildlife (deer) passing through yard
  • Tall grass or wooded areas nearby
  • Shady, moist areas in yard

Flea Control Services

Complete elimination from your home and pets

Fleas are an aggravating nuisance in or around your home. About the size of a pencil tip, they're dark red or brown in color. Capable of hitching a ride onto your property on deer, skunks, opossums, and other wildlife, they can easily infect your pets and make their way inside your house.

Treating your furry friends with pet-appropriate flea treatments is the first step in protecting your home. If you're still having issues, it's possible flea-infected wildlife may be living underneath your house, which can require exclusionary work.

Fleas can also latch onto clothing as you walk through your yard, making their way inside your home and laying eggs in your carpet once they do.

When you partner with us for flea control, you can expect:

  • Eco-friendly products and steam treatment options
  • Interior and exterior treatments
  • Ongoing services and monitoring
  • Recommendations for pet treatments
  • Landscaping suggestions to prevent fleas

πŸ“‹ Signs of Fleas

  • Pets scratching excessively
  • Small jumping insects
  • Flea dirt (black specks) on pets
  • Bites on ankles and legs
  • Eggs in carpet or pet bedding

Prepare for Your Appointment

Launder all pet beds, blankets, and covers in hot water to eliminate flea eggs and larvae before treatment.
Thoroughly vacuum every carpet, rug, and upholstered surface. This removes eggs and stimulates pupae to hatch for more effective treatment.
Cut grass short and trim shrubs to reduce flea and tick habitat in your yard.
Coordinate with your vet to have pets on flea and tick preventative medication before or during treatment.
Pick up toys, shoes, and clothing from floors so the technician can treat all carpet and floor surfaces completely.
Arrange for pets to stay off treated surfaces for the specified time after treatment to ensure effectiveness.
Your technician will guide you on arrival.
