Treatment

1. Before: Once you have discovered a flea infestation you must prepare for the treatment. A thorough cleaning of the home is your first order of business. This is a very important preparatory measure and should not be taken lightly.

2. During: The technician will be using a restricted use insecticide that's low on the toxicity scale, and safe when applied by professionals.

Once he has checked to see that the necessary items in your home have been removed, or covered, the service technician will begin the treatment. He will apply a fine broadcast spray over all infected areas - carpets, rugs, wood and tile flooring, baseboards, pet bedding and resting areas, and in the cracks and crevices in the furniture. The insecticide won't stain, so don't worry about your carpets or upholstery. It has only a slight odor that will soon vanish completely.

3. After: As noted earlier, it's necessary for people and pets to be out of the house until the insecticide has dried thoroughly. That's normally four hours.

When you do re-enter your house, you can resume all your normal activities with one exception, you should put off cleaning carpets, floors and treated furniture with detergents or cleansers as long as possible. Vacuuming, however, is OK since the insecticide will tightly bind to carpeting.

A quick biology lesson will explain why it's important not to clean with detergents. You see, the fleas have a four-stage life cycle - egg, larvae, pupa, and adult. An insecticide will affect fleas only in two of these stages - the mobile larvae and adult stages. So the insecticide must be left undisturbed until the fleas grow from egg to larvae or from pupa into adulthood.

Since the insecticide does have this delayed effect on emerging fleas, you may notice some flea activity after the treatment. this does not mean that the insecticide isn't working - it may take up to 24 to 48 hours before all activity ceases, so be patient.
