Give customer suggestions for flies, fleas, ticks

Dr. Reid Ipser, Director of Technical Services, Nisus Corp.

Flies: Work with homeowners and commercial accounts to identify sanitation areas that need more of their attention. This could include anything from garbage cans to drains clogged with organic matter. A consistent sanitation schedule, combined with an effective treatment plan, will be far more successful that just treatment alone.

Fleas: Recommend that the homeowner clean pet bedding regularly, and use regular flea prevention medication for their pets.

Ticks: Ticks reside on bushes, so it’s easy for a passing animal or person to become an unsuspecting ride for an enterprising tick. Use liquid solutions that include bifenthrin for tick control, but rotate other active ingredients as needed.
