There are enough stressors in this world. Bugs should not be one of them.

🐾 Found fleas in your house or yard? Don't panic and don't just treat the first flea you see.

Here are 3 helpful places to start:

🧺 1. Wash & vacuum indoors.

Wash pet bedding and other washable fabrics your pet frequently uses. Vacuum carpets, rugs, upholstered furniture, and areas where pets spend time and keep up with it. Fleas have multiple life stages, so this isn't usually a one-and-done cleanup. ⭐️ IMPORTANT: Discard of vacuum contents in exterior trash bin.

🐶 2. Take care of the pet AND their environment.

Talk with your veterinarian about appropriate flea prevention or treatment for your pet. At the same time, pay attention to where your pet sleeps, plays, and spends time around the house and yard.

🌳 3. Look for the places fleas like to hang out.

Fleas tend to do better in protected areas where animals spend time. Think shaded spots, underneath decks or shrubs, pet resting areas, and places visited by rodents or wildlife.

The big takeaway? Finding fleas doesn't mean your house isn't clean. Getting ahead of them means addressing your pet(s), your home, and potentially your yard not just the flea you happened to spot.

Already dealing with them? A Bug Guy can help figure out where the problem is coming from and what makes sense for your property.

🐾 Fleas and ticks may both hitch a ride on our pets, but they’re very different houseguests.

Fleas are tiny jumpers that can quickly become an indoor problem once they make their way inside.

Ticks don’t jump or fly. They wait for a person or animal to brush past vegetation and grab on.
And here's the important part: finding either one doesn't necessarily tell you where the problem started.

This week's Bug of the Week is all about helping North Texas families understand fleas & ticks and how to make your home & yard less welcoming to them.

🦂 BUG OF THE WEEK
WHERE DO SCORPIONS HIDE?

Think you've never seen a scorpion? You may have walked right past one...

🪨 Under Rocks & Landscaping
Scorpions love cool, shaded places where they can stay protected during the heat of the day.

🪵 Woodpiles & Firewood
Stacks of wood provide the perfect hiding place and a buffet of insects to eat.

📦 Garages & Storage Areas
Boxes, clutter, and undisturbed corners create ideal shelter, especially if insects are nearby.

🌿 Mulch & Flower Beds
Moist landscaping and dense ground cover make excellent daytime hiding spots.

👟 Shoes, Gloves & Outdoor Gear
If it's been sitting outside or in the garage for a while, give it a quick shake before you use it!

💡 Fun Fact:
Scorpions glow a bright blue-green under ultraviolet (black) light, making them surprisingly easy to spot during nighttime inspections.

🏡 The good news?
Simple home maintenance, reducing hiding places, and a professional pest management program can help make your property much less inviting to scorpions.

🕷️ 3 FUN FACTS ABOUT WOLF SPIDERS

Think this spider looks scary? It might surprise you!

👀 Fun Fact #1:
Unlike many spiders, wolf spiders don't build webs to catch their prey. They're active hunters that chase down insects, kind of like the wolves of the spider world!

💡 Fun Fact #2:
Wolf spiders are considered beneficial because they help control pests like crickets, flies, roaches, and other insects around your home and yard.

🕷️ Fun Fact #3:
A mother wolf spider is one of the few spiders that carries her egg sac attached to her spinnerets. After the eggs hatch, the spiderlings climb onto her back and ride with her until they're ready to venture out on their own!

🏡 While wolf spiders aren't considered dangerous to people, no one wants unexpected visitors inside their home. Keeping cracks sealed, reducing outdoor clutter, and maintaining regular pest control can help discourage them from moving indoors.

👇 Have you ever spotted a wolf spider carrying dozens of tiny babies on her back? It's one of nature's most fascinating sights!
