    How It Works

    From Inspection to Seasonal Protection

    Locally owned and family operated since 1987. Call before noon, Monday through Friday, for same day service.

    Tick Questions

    Tick infestations usually start with your cat or dog. These pests attach themselves to your pets when they’re outside, and then infest their fur and areas they sleep indoors. This means to control Ticks successfully, you need to treat the inside of your home and your yard! Luckily, IPM can help. If you’re dealing with a Tick infestation, or want to safeguard your home from these nasty pests, call 412-822-7610 today!

    Ticks attach and feed on blood, and pets that pick them up outside often scratch at the bite. The bigger concern is disease: ticks carry Lyme disease and other illnesses, and the CDC reported that illnesses from mosquito, tick and flea bites more than tripled in the United States from 2004 to 2016. If you are finding ticks on people or pets, call 412-822-7610.

    Ticks love warm-blooded animals, like your pets. They consume 15 times their body weight in blood, which can cause anemia and significant blood loss. So we recommend that you supplement your flea and tick preventative with 2-3 tick treatments during the warmer months in Location. This will create an additional line of defense from these blood-sucking pests.
