Spotting a flea infestation in Villeray

A flea is two to three millimetres long, dark brown, and jumps up to twenty times its own length. You rarely see one. The indirect signs are what give the infestation away.

Bites in clusters of two or three on ankles, calves and legs, with a red dot in the middle
A dog or cat scratching, biting at the base of the tail and losing hair
Tiny black specks in the fur or bedding that turn red on a damp paper towel, that is flea dirt
Dark dots that jump when you lift a rug, a carpet or a couch cushion
Itching that flares up in the evening and after a few days away

Our flea treatment in Villeray

STEP 1InspectionWe confirm it really is fleas and locate the hot spots, carpets, hardwood gaps, under furniture, pet bedding and the basement.

STEP 2PreparationYou vacuum thoroughly and wash textiles hot. We hand you the exact checklist, it makes a real difference to the result.

STEP 3Full treatmentHealth Canada approved residual product on floors, baseboards and textiles, combined with a growth regulator that sterilises eggs and larvae.

STEP 4Second visitTen to fourteen days later we return to kill the fleas that emerged from their cocoons. That visit is what breaks the cycle for good, and it is included.

Why store bought treatments fall short

The flea cocoon resists insecticide for weeks. It waits for the vibration and warmth of someone walking by before it opens. That is why in Villeray an empty home, after a vacation or a move, can release hundreds of fleas at once. Our two visit protocol is built for exactly that.

OPDQ certified technicians, Health Canada approved products
Growth regulator that shuts down eggs and larvae, not just the adults
Second visit included to catch the late hatch
Safe for children and pets when you follow the re entry delay we give you
Written guarantee, we come back if there is still activity

The flea life cycle, plainly

Understanding the cycle explains why an infestation seems to come back. One female lays up to fifty eggs a day. Those eggs fall off the animal and spread everywhere it walks.

5 % of the population is visible, the adult fleas on the animal
50 % are eggs dropped into carpets, floor gaps and fabrics
35 % are larvae feeding on debris deep in the fibres
10 % are cocoons, the toughest stage, able to wait for months
Heat, humidity and winter heating speed up hatching, an infestation does not clear on its own

FAQ · fleas in Villeray

How much does flea treatment cost in Villeray?

In Villeray, treatment starts around $99. The price depends on the square footage, the number of rooms and how long the infestation has been going. The second visit is included and the price is confirmed before we start.

How long before the bites stop?

Adult fleas die within the first hours. You may still see a few for one to two weeks while the last cocoons open and the residual product kills them. The second visit closes the file.

Do I need to treat my dog or cat at the same time?

Yes. We treat the home, your vet treats the animal. If only one of the two is done, the fleas are back within days. We coordinate both with you.

I have fleas but no pet, is that possible?

Very often, yes. Fleas arrive with a former tenant who had a pet, through a squirrel or raccoon in the attic, from a neighbouring unit or on clothing. The treatment is the same.

Is the treatment safe in Villeray for children and pets?

Yes, with Health Canada approved products applied where they are needed. We tell you how long to stay out, usually a few hours, and what to do about aquariums.

How fast can you come in Villeray?

Fast. We cover every part of Villeray, including Parc-Extension, Saint-Michel, Petite-Italie and La Castagne, in houses and apartments alike. Often within 24h, 7 days a week.
