How to Do a Proper Body Check in Beaverton

From our guide How to Check Yourself for Ticks After Being Outside: A Complete Body-Check Guide: the checks below are the ones to run through at a Beaverton property.

• Legs and back of the knees

Around Beaverton the Lindsay Frost station's mean temperature stays at or above 10 degrees Celsius from May to September, and that is the window when fleas and ticks are active.

How AstraHive Pest Control gets rid of fleas and ticks in Beaverton

1. Ask first about pets, bites and affected rooms.
2. Treat. Fleas are treated inside the affected areas. Ticks get an exterior perimeter ULV fogging that lasts about 90 days on walls and about 30 days on grass and vegetation. Where needed we add an insect growth regulator (IGR) for fleas.
3. Treat the pets too. Your vet must treat pets at the same time, or they bring fleas back in.
4. Follow-up in 4 to 6 weeks, because one treatment kills adult fleas but not the eggs.

Products are Health Canada approved and applied according to the product label, and our technicians are licensed by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP). Our flea and tick work is backed by a 90-day warranty.

More on fleas and ticks for Beaverton homeowners

• A personal tick check handles exposure from hikes, parks, and campsites, but if your own yard has overgrown grass, brush, or a wooded edge, you're re-exposing yourself every time you step outside. That's where property-level tick control comes in. (How to Check Yourself for Ticks After Being Outside: A Complete Body-Check Guide)
• Not every tick is a blacklegged tick, not every blacklegged tick is infected, and not every tick bite results in Lyme disease. Prompt removal matters because transmission risk for some tick-borne pathogens depends partly on how long an infected tick stays attached, but the exact window varies by pathogen.

• Washing pet bedding in hot soapy water every two to three weeks helps control fleas indoors. (Health Canada: fleas)
• Showering within a couple of hours of coming indoors can help wash off ticks that haven't attached yet. But a shower is not a substitute for a hands-on inspection, water alone won't dislodge a tick that has already anchored its mouthparts into skin.
