Why Chinatown Has a Fleas Problem
Chinatown's tightly packed buildings along streets like Canal, Elizabeth, and East Broadway can allow flea infestations to spread between units rapidly. The neighborhood's mix of residential spaces above ground-floor businesses, along with the presence of community gardens and outdoor markets, requires pest control experts familiar with Manhattan's oldest and most densely populated ethnic enclave.
Why Choose Us for Flea Treatment in Chinatown
Flea infestations require treating all life stages simultaneously — adult fleas are only about 5% of the population at any time, with eggs, larvae, and pupae hiding in carpets, furniture, and pet bedding making up the other 95%. Our treatment protocol covers all interior floor surfaces with a combination of adulticide (to kill adults on contact) and insect growth regulator (IGR) to prevent eggs and larvae from developing into biting adults. We treat pet resting areas with particular thoroughness, and advise on concurrent pet treatment with your veterinarian to prevent re-infestation from the animal. Our 30-day guarantee accounts for the 1–2 week pupal emergence period — if fleas persist, we re-treat.
