Stop the Itch Before It Spreads

Book Flea Control in Cedar Springs

Your dog scratches constantly, and you've started noticing small bites on your own ankles. Fleas are more than a nuisance—they reproduce rapidly, bite repeatedly, and infest carpets, pet bedding, and outdoor areas where your family and pets spend time. Lake-area communities and homes with pets in Cedar Springs often see higher flea activity during warm months, when outdoor temperatures and wooded environments accelerate flea population growth. Travis Pest Control provides interior and exterior treatments addressing fleas at all life-cycle stages, including eggs, larvae, and adults, to stop infestations before they spread throughout your home.


Treatments include targeted applications to carpets, pet bedding areas, basements, and shaded outdoor zones where fleas rest and reproduce. Cedar Springs' local climate and wooded surroundings create conditions that support flea survival year-round, making proactive treatment and prevention essential for pet owners. Safe application methods ensure effective flea elimination without putting your family or pets at risk when treatments are applied correctly.

What to Expect When You Book

Your service begins with a thorough inspection of indoor and outdoor areas where fleas are most likely to hide and reproduce. Technicians check carpets, rugs, pet bedding, upholstered furniture, basements, crawl spaces, shaded yard areas, and under decks or porches where pets rest. Cedar Springs properties near wooded lots or with outdoor pets often have higher flea populations in soil, mulch, and tall grasses.

You can expect comprehensive treatment when you choose Travis Pest Control for flea management. Interior treatments use insect growth regulators and contact sprays to eliminate adult fleas and prevent larvae from developing into biting adults. Exterior treatments target shaded zones, pet pathways, and soil areas where fleas lay eggs and pupate.

Additional steps include vacuuming recommendations to remove flea eggs and debris, treating pet bedding with heat or approved products, and coordinating treatment timing with veterinary flea control for pets. Follow-up applications may be needed to address newly emerged adults from pupae, which can remain dormant for weeks before hatching.

Details That Matter Most

Pet owners and families dealing with flea problems in Cedar Springs often ask how treatments work, what preparation is required, and how to prevent future infestations.

How do I prepare my home for flea treatment?
Vacuum all carpets and rugs thoroughly, wash pet bedding in hot water, and remove pets and people from treated areas until surfaces are dry. Store pet food and water bowls during application.

Will one treatment eliminate all the fleas?
Most infestations require two treatments spaced two to three weeks apart to address newly hatched fleas from pupae. Severe infestations or untreated pets may require additional follow-up.

Are flea treatments safe for my pets?
Yes, when applied correctly and allowed to dry completely. Pets should be treated by a veterinarian at the same time to prevent re-infestation from fleas living on the animal.

Why do I still see fleas after treatment?
Flea pupae are resistant to insecticides and can hatch days or weeks after treatment. Newly emerged fleas contact treated surfaces and die quickly, so activity should decline rapidly after the first few days.

Can fleas survive Michigan winters?
Fleas can survive indoors year-round in heated homes. Outdoor populations decline in winter but can persist in sheltered areas like crawl spaces, sheds, and under decks where temperatures remain mild.

Cedar Springs' wooded environment and warm-season humidity create conditions where flea populations can explode quickly, especially in homes with pets. Comprehensive interior and exterior treatments break the flea life cycle and restore comfort for your entire family.
