Book a Free InspectionFleas and mites are tiny, fast-moving, and often confused with one another. Correct identification helps determine whether the source is a pet resting area, carpeted room, bird or rodent nest, lawn edge, window, or wall void.
Dark reddish-brown, wingless, and laterally flattened with powerful jumping legs. Adults feed on cats, dogs, wildlife, and people, while eggs and larvae develop in carpets, floor gaps, and pet resting areas.
Tiny pale, grey, or reddish mites that leave abandoned bird and rodent nests in search of a host. They may enter bedrooms and offices through vents, ceilings, windows, and wall gaps.
Pinpoint-sized red mites with unusually long front legs. They do not bite people or pets, but large migrations can stain walls, curtains, and furniture when crushed. Often enter from over-fertilized lawns.
Flea eggs and larvae hide deep in carpets and floor gaps, while mites may keep entering from an active bird or rodent nest. Surface sprays alone rarely solve the source. Professional identification prevents repeat treatment and unnecessary pesticide use.

Inspect carpets, pet resting areas, upholstered furniture, baseboards, windows, vents, attics, and nesting sites. Confirm whether the pest is a flea, parasitic mite, or harmless outdoor invader.
Treat floor edges, carpet fibres, cracks, furniture undersides, and source zones with a targeted residual and growth-regulator plan when appropriate. Bird or rodent nesting material is addressed at the source.
Health Canada-approved products are applied only where activity is found. We do not spray pets, pet dishes, toys, bedding in use, or broad open surfaces unnecessarily.
Coordinate pet veterinary care, remove wildlife nesting sources, explain vacuuming and laundry timing, and schedule follow-up after new flea adults emerge from protected pupae.
Our Winnipeg flea and mite technicians send a clear one-page preparation sheet with every booking. Proper vacuuming, laundry, pet coordination, and floor access help treatment reach the places immature fleas and mites hide.
A printable checklist covering how to prepare carpets, pet areas, furniture edges, and floor spaces before flea or mite treatment. Correct prep improves coverage and helps break the full life cycle.
Usually 4–6 hours after treatment, once surfaces are dry. Your technician will confirm.

Fleas thrive indoors year-round because eggs, larvae, and pupae accumulate away from the pet in carpets, furniture edges, and floor cracks. Heated Winnipeg homes let the life cycle continue through winter, while wildlife and rodents can introduce new fleas and mites into attics and wall voids.
We handle flea and mite control across Downtown, Osborne Village, St. Vital, Fort Garry, Transcona, and surrounding Manitoba communities. Calls peak after pet exposure, wildlife nesting, rodent removal, and warm-weather clover mite migrations.
Property treatment controls the current infestation. Long-term prevention also requires consistent pet protection, wildlife exclusion, vacuuming, and attention to outdoor mite pressure around foundations and windows.
Keep every dog and cat on veterinarian-approved flea prevention year-round.
Vacuum pet resting areas and furniture edges weekly; empty the vacuum outdoors.
Wash pet bedding regularly and dry on the hottest fabric-safe setting.
Remove abandoned bird nests only after they are inactive and legal to remove.
Seal gaps around vents, soffits, pipes, windows, and utility penetrations.
Maintain a 45–60 cm vegetation-free strip where clover mites enter foundations.FAQ
