Natural-first solutions that actually work
Integrated approach targeting all life stages. Diatomaceous earth in carpets and cracks contacts adults and larvae. Boric acid powder in carpets disrupts larvae. Botanical pyrethrin for active infestations. Essential oil treatments for pet areas. Extensive vacuuming critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to eliminate a flea infestation?
Flea elimination typically takes 2-4 weeks minimum due to their life cycle. Eggs and pupae are resistant to treatment and continue emerging. Consistent vacuuming and treatment over several weeks breaks the breeding cycle completely.
Can fleas infest a home without pets?
Yes, fleas can enter on wildlife, rodents, or even on your clothing after outdoor exposure. Previous pet owners may have left dormant pupae that emerge when vibrations indicate a new host. Vacant homes can harbor dormant fleas for months.
Can you treat fleas in Bridgewater's historic homes?
Absolutely. We specialize in treating older Bridgewater properties using methods that won't damage historic materials. Our targeted approach eliminates pests while preserving your home's character.
