Note: Surekill Pest Control Technicians use the safest pesticides available.  We recommend an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) which interrupts the life cycle of the flea.

Pest
Management
Plan

Our Surekill Technician will discuss your Pest Management Plan when they are at your property. This will include how long until your next treatment and that we will send you a reminder letter. 

 

Let the Technician know if you have any other pest problems or concerns that you want treated or monitored. They will be able to discuss it with you and  include it in your Pest Management Plan.

Walk to open flea eggs

After treatment it is advised to walk around the property to wake up the flea eggs that have not yet hatched. Flea eggs cannot be killed by any chemcial on the market. Eggs will only hatch when they feel movement of a potential host. That is why it is advised to walk around the enviroment to encourage the eggs to hatch. The flea will then contact the chemical and die. 

Please Note: Flea eggs can lay dormant for more than a year.

 

Avoid contact with treated surfaces until chemical agent has dried
