Fleas & Ticks
- How do your flea and tick control services work?
  
  At Accutech Pest Management, we begin with a thorough inspection of your property to identify areas where fleas and ticks may be breeding or thriving. We then apply targeted treatments designed to eliminate adult fleas and ticks, as well as their eggs, larvae (or nymphs), and pupae. This multi-step approach ensures we break the reproductive life cycle, significantly reducing their populations. The use of EPA-approved products ensures the safety of your household while effectively controlling fleas and ticks in your yard or in your home.

- Is the flea and tick control treatment safe for my family and pets?
- How long should we wait before allowing pets or people back into treated areas?
- Can you guarantee a flea and tick-free environment?
  
  While no pest control service can guarantee 100% elimination, our treatments are designed to significantly reduce flea and tick populations by disrupting their life cycles. Factors like outdoor exposure or untreated pets can cause reinfestation, but with regular treatments and proper pet care, we can help maintain long-term control, making your home and yard more comfortable and safer for your family and pets.
- What should I do to prepare my home or yard for flea and tick treatment?
- What should I do after the flea and tick treatment?
  
  After treatment, vacuum your home daily for a week to remove any remaining flea eggs or larvae. Wash pet bedding, blankets, and toys in hot water, and use a high heat setting when drying if the label allows. Continue checking your pets for fleas and ticks regularly, and use preventative treatments to reduce the risk of reinfestation. Our technician may provide additional recommendations tailored to your home and specific needs.

- How do your mosquito control services work?
  
  Here at Accutech Pest Management, our mosquito control services involve a multi-step approach. First, our technician conducts a thorough inspection of your property to identify mosquito breeding and resting areas. Next, a customized treatment solution is deployed to zero in on mosquito populations at all stages of life, from egg to adult, using environmentally responsible methods that are safe for your family and pets.

- What types of mosquitoes does your mosquito control service target?
  
  Our mosquito control service targets a wide range of mosquito species, including the common house mosquito (Culex pipiens) and the more aggressive Asian tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus), both of which are prevalent in Maryland. By effectively controlling these species, we help reduce the risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as West Nile virus, Zika virus, and Eastern equine encephalitis, all of which can pose significant public health threats.
- What can I do to reduce mosquito breeding on my property?
  
  Alongside our professional treatments, property owners can take several steps to reduce mosquito breeding sites. Eliminate standing water in flower pots, gutters, buckets, outdoor play equipment, and bird baths. Keep your yard well-trimmed and debris-free where mosquitoes can breed and rest. Our technicians can also provide personalized advice to help you maintain a more mosquito-resistant environment.
- Will the mosquito treatment harm beneficial insects like bees and butterflies?
  
  Our mosquito control treatments are carefully formulated and applied to minimize the impact on beneficial insects such as bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. We focus the treatment on areas where mosquitoes breed and rest, rather than on flowering plants and gardens where pollinators are most active. Additionally, our trained technicians are mindful of the timing and placement of treatments to further reduce any potential risk to these important insects. By targeting mosquitoes while protecting beneficial species, we help maintain a balanced and healthy ecosystem in your yard.
