"Hi friends. I'm Mark Govan with ABC Pest Control in Largo, Florida, and people wonder, what can I do to help keep fleas off of their person? Well, the best way to keep fleas off your person, is to go ahead and make sure that your home is being treated on a regular basis, hopefully by a professional applicator or a good pest control company in your area. And, keeping your pets treated on a regular basis, and washing the bed linens if a pet happens to sleep on a bed with you occasionally, or a lot of times with children, they like to have a family pet stay with them regularly, and you can get the fleas infesting yourself while you sleep. But, if you change those linens and wash them on a regular basis, keep the floors vacuumed, and keep your house treated and keep your yard treated, you shouldn't have any problem at all keeping those pests off of you, and even off your pets at the same time. So, remember. Keep your place clean, keep your floors vacuumed on a regular basis, and keep your pets treated by a professional, and you won't have any problem with flea control. I'm Mark Govan with ABC Pest Control in Largo, Florida, helping to keep you, pest free."
