Flea Control
Fleas are the bane of pet owners. According to a 2015 study by Nielsen, Americans spend $379.1 million annually on flea and tick products. But you don’t have to have a pet to experience fleas. Other pests, such as rats and bats can carry fleas, and if the previous owner of your home kept a pet with fleas, these pests may still live in the carpets.
Why Fleas Are Troublesome
Fleas feed on the blood of a host animal—usually cats, dogs, and livestock—by biting and sucking out blood. Flea bites are not initially painful, but bites quickly become itchy and inflamed, causing pain as they develop. As pets or humans scratch the bites, the lesions may bleed or become infected.
Where Fleas Are Found
Fleas will happily live in both pet and human bedding—mattresses, pillows, and blankets are all susceptible. Carpets, area rugs, and furniture make good places for fleas to hide as well. Dog houses, kitty posts, and other pet accessories are also prime locations to find fleas.
Why Fleas Are Tough to Get Rid Of
The life cycle of fleas gives these pests an incredible survival ability. Fleas are not easily controlled by over-the-counter products. Prevention is the best way to ensure you don’t experience an infestation, but if you’re already dealing with a flea problem then you’ll need a long-acting insecticide. If you are already dealing with an infestation, contact us for treatment that can break the lifecycle and eliminate the problem.

I have used this company for at least 9 years and never had bad service!.. Today they sent John to my home because of a spider infestation. This man was very impressive, he talked to me first about all of my concerns ( spider webs around house and bushes) he went to work spraying all around my home and came back with a huge duster and cleaned not only both porches but my bushes against my house the webs in the eaves of my porches , windows and doors!.. I was so pleased because I couldn’t use my front porch because of so many webs as well as my fear, this young man, John, was very polite saying yes ma’am, no ma’am and thank you ma’am!.. He is truly a proud employee of Putman and I highly and sincerely recommend this company for your needs. I would also like to mention that when in the process of selling a duplex that the inspector commented that he had never seen such good clean work in a crawl space that was in a flood zone!.. This company put in a sump pump and sealed the area with plastic and a dehumidifier rendering my home in good condition!..

We have been using Putman Pest for several years now and are extremely pleased with the team! Always friendly and professional, they are thorough and go the extra mile. I have only needed a call back one time and they came out right away and helped us out. They have been great with service and information every quarter. Highly recommended!

I have been using Putnam Pest Management for more than 5 years now. They are extremely responsive, we have them come on a quarterly basis and they are always on time, thorough and alert us to any potential problems. In between treatments, they always come back and retreat on the rare occasion when that has been needed. there has never been a cost for re treatment. I highly reccomend this company.

We just purchased a home that was treated by these guys back in May for a termite infestation. When we moved in, we called them back to make sure we were still termite free and to treat the rest of the home for a variety of insects. The home sat empty for a while before we moved in so we wanted to make sure we didn't stir anything up and that we were protected just in case. Aaron was nice, polite, and professional. He was on time and made sure to go through all the options with me as far as quarterly service. We all feel better knowing the house is protected and bug free. The office staff was great when my husband called to make the appt. Would definitely recommend these guys. 👍

They are very good at what they do!. I moved into an older mobile home that had a bad roach problem. Contacted Putman they came right out. I have noticed a huge reduction in the roaches after just 1 visit. Signed up for the quarterly pest control, they came out free of charge before my next scheduled visit to treat again. I have no doubt my problem will soon be completely eliminated. (note: the previous tenants did nothing as far as pest control so it was a problem) The prices are very reasonable and the technician that comes out is beyond friendly and professional. He is also very knowledgeable and explained the whole process to me. Im glad I chose Putman and highly recommend them if you are in need of pest control services. They also treat the outside of the house. Thanks for your hard work!

Putman Peat Management has been providing service for us at 2 different houses over the last year 1/2. They have done a variety of projects for us from an initial termite/pest inspection to annual reinspections and installing new crawl space liner and vents. They were professional as well as personable in their service and reasonable in the coat of their work. Very happy to continue working with them.

When I bought my house, it hadn't been lived in for 3 years so the bugs had made it their home. Putman went above and beyond to make sure they all went away.Recently I had an issue with mice, and not only did they come out to take care of them, they came back out to remove the dead mouse under my house.Love this company, especially since it is local!

Professional, prompt service. Marty and Richard are courteous, friendly and knowledgeable! After treating our home initially, Richard called us every year around our anniversary date to schedule an annual maintenance check, without our having to keep up with it. He arrived on time, inspected the entire crawl space thoroughly and even alerted us to small non-pest-related maintenance issues (insulation which needing tacking back up, etc.) We appreciate Putman's excellent service and commitment to keeping our home safe from pests and other problems. Call them before getting quotes from anyone else. They are top-notch.
