Brian is our guy! We were referred to Jones Bros from my mom, who loves their service. I’m so glad we switched. We were getting some outdoor roaches. Brian came in and the roaches left. He is so nice and great at keeping the pests away! I highly recommend Jones Bros!!!

Jones Bros Pest Control has been great to work with. Their customer service is excellent, and they have been very responsive to my concerns. Technician Oscar Lopez came out twice within the month to address some pest issues I was having, and he was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough each time. He took the time to listen, explain what was going on, and make sure my concerns were handled. I really appreciate the care and attention he provided. I highly recommend Jones Bros Pest Control and Oscar Lopez for dependable pest control service

We had a really great experience with Jones Brothers Pest Control. Tony was especially kind, attentive, and professional. He took the time to answer our questions, explain everything clearly, and made us feel confident that the issue was being handled properly. It’s hard to find someone who is both knowledgeable and genuinely kind to costumers. The service was efficient, and overall exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend Jones Brothers Pest Control, especially if you get to work with Tony!

My family has been Jones Bros customers for many years and I have had my own account with them since 2019. Jerry is our technician and he helps to make every experience fantastic. He takes time to check in with me every time he comes, catching up, and asking if there have been any issues. Luckily, we do not have anything out of the ordinary, but he always lets me know that if anything comes to give him a call and he will happily come back out to make sure it’s taken care of.

You think of your Exterminating services unless there's a problem. We've been using Jones Brothers for years and John is our service expert. I don't always get the opportunity to connect with John on his service days but when I do it's always a pleasant experience. He's knowledgeable, professional, and courteous.

A Guide to Controlling and Removing Dog Ticks and Fleas

A Guide to Controlling and Removing Dog Ticks and Fleas

Dogs are a man’s best friend, but their constant companion in the form of ticks and fleas is not. These parasites not only irritate pets but also threaten their health as they can transmit diseases. As such, dog owners need to take preventive measures and quickly address the problem when it arises. This article will discuss effective methods for controlling and removing dog ticks and fleas, as well as treatment options.

Identification

Ticks are small arachnids that attach to the dog’s skin and feed on blood. You can identify them by their eight legs and oval-shaped body. Ticks can carry diseases like Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and tick paralysis.

Fleas, on the other hand, are tiny, wingless insects that move quickly through the fur and feed on blood. They can cause skin allergies and transmit tapeworms to dogs.

Prevention

The best way to deal with ticks and fleas is to prevent them from infesting your dog in the first place. Some of these preventive measures include:

  • Use Tick and Flea Preventative Products: A variety of tick and flea preventative products are available on the market, including collars, sprays, and topical treatments. Your veterinarian can recommend the best product for your dog based on their breed, size, and lifestyle.
  • Keep Your Yard Clean: Ticks and fleas thrive in warm, humid environments, so maintain the cleanliness of your yard. Mow your lawn regularly and remove any piles of leaves or brush that could provide a habitat for these parasites.
  • Regularly Bathe and Groom Your Dog: Grooming and bathing can help prevent ticks and fleas from infesting your dog. Use a flea comb to remove any adult fleas or ticks that may be on your dog’s skin.
  • Vacuum Your Home: Using a vacuum can get rid of ticks or fleas that may have made their way inside. Pay special attention to areas where your dog spends a lot of time, such as their bed or favorite spots on the carpet.
Removal

If your dog does become infested with ticks or fleas, try to get rid of them as soon as possible. Consider using these tools when doing so:

  • Tweezers: To remove a tick, grasp it firmly with a pair of tweezers and pull it straight out. Refrain from twisting or jerking the tick, which can break off the head and remain in your dog’s skin.
  • Flea Combs: A flea comb is designed to remove fleas from your dog’s fur. Comb your dog’s fur in the direction of the hair growth, and dip the comb in soapy water to kill the fleas that are caught.
Treatment

If your dog is infested with ticks or fleas, there are a variety of treatment options available. Here are some of them:

  • Topical Treatments: Topical treatments are applied directly to your dog’s skin and can provide long-lasting protection against ticks and fleas. These treatments typically contain insecticides that kill parasites on contact.
  • Oral Medications: Taking oral medications once a month can help eliminate ticks and fleas. These medications may also prevent parasites from reproducing and are known to be effective.
  • Bathing: Bathing your dog with a flea shampoo can help kill any adult fleas on their skin. Follow the instructions on the shampoo carefully, as some products may cause harm if not used properly.
Key Takeaway

Ticks and fleas can pose a serious threat to your dog’s health and well-being. By taking preventative measures and promptly removing parasites that do make their way onto your dog, you can help ensure they stay happy and healthy. If you are unsure how to handle ticks or fleas on your dog, consult your veterinarian.
