WHY CARPENTER?

Area Conditions that Support This Critical Pest

If you have pets in your Wyoming home, they could be bringing in some unwelcomed guests. If you notice your pets scratching frequently, it could be because fleas have started to find their way into your home. Fleas can multiply quickly, leading to a home full of microscopic, blood sucking pests in a short period of time. Though they are commonly found in Carpenter, you already have a leg up on flea infestations by living in the state of Wyoming. We experience a semi-arid climate here, meaning the weather is drier than in most parts of the United States. Fleas thrive in humidity and high temperatures, and less than 5% of flea eggs hatch in arid areas. This small survival rate makes these pests easier to manage, but they can still create a problem in your Carpenter home and the people and pets who live there. Not only do fleas feed on the blood of their hosts, they can also spread diseases like typhus and tularemia. Once they've found their way in, fleas can be hard to remove, especially without the help of a professional.
