Flea And Tick Exterminator

Flea and tick infestations are not only a nuisance but also pose significant health risks to humans and pets. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), ticks are responsible for transmitting various diseases, including Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and Ehrlichiosis. Fleas, on the other hand, can cause severe itching, skin irritations, and even allergic reactions. It is crucial to address these infestations promptly and effectively to safeguard the well-being of your loved ones.


At Eastland Pest Control, we are well-versed in the common types of fleas and ticks found in the Lake City area. The most prevalent species include the American dog and the black-legged tick, and the cat flea. Each species has unique habits, preferred food sources, and areas of infestation. By understanding their behavior and characteristics, we can devise targeted strategies to eliminate these pests from your property.


The American dog tick is brown with white or yellowish markings, while the black-legged is dark brown or black.
