Flea & Tick Control in New Braunfels, TX
Fleas in the house or ticks in the yard? Call 830-777-CAMO (2266) for flea and tick control.
Fleas and ticks pose real health risks to people and pets, especially in shaded Central Texas yards with tall grass and wooded areas. Camo Pest Control treats your yard and home to reduce flea and tick populations, targets the places they live, and recommends steps to keep them from coming back. No contracts and no long term commitments.
Fleas and Ticks
Fleas and ticks thrive in tall grass, shaded yards, leaf litter, and wooded edges. Pets usually bring them indoors, where fleas can quickly spread into carpets, furniture, and bedding.
Our flea and tick control targets the habitats around your property where these pests live and breed, helping protect your family and pets from bites and the diseases ticks can carry.
Fleas vs Ticks

|---|---|---|
| Size and look | Tiny, dark reddish brown, flattened side to side, jump | Flat, oval, eight legs, swell after feeding, crawl instead of jump |
| Where they live | On pets, then carpets, bedding, and shaded parts of the yard | Tall grass, brush, leaf litter, wooded edges, and dog runs |
| Main risk | Itchy bites, allergic skin reactions in pets, tapeworms | Tick-borne diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and ehrlichiosis |
| Treatment focus | Home, yard, and pets at the same time | Yard habitats and pet protection |
Flea Treatment for Your Yard and Home
Adult fleas are only a small part of an infestation. Most of the population is eggs, larvae, and pupae in carpets, pet bedding, and shaded areas of the yard. Treating the home and yard together, while your pets are on a flea preventive from your veterinarian, is what breaks the cycle. Flea pupae can survive treatment and hatch later, so a follow-up is often needed.
Ticks in Central Texas
Common ticks in Texas include the brown dog tick, the American dog tick, and the lone star tick. The brown dog tick can complete its life cycle indoors, so it can infest homes and kennels. Check people and pets after time outdoors, and remove attached ticks with fine-tipped tweezers by pulling straight up.

Flea and Tick Control FAQs
Treat the home, the yard, and your pets at the same time. Most fleas are eggs, larvae, and pupae hiding in carpets, bedding, and shaded parts of the yard, so treating only one area lets them come back.
Flea pupae are protected inside cocoons and can hatch days or weeks after treatment. Vacuuming often and scheduling a follow-up treatment helps catch them.

Ticks in Texas can carry diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and ehrlichiosis. Check people and pets after outdoor time and remove ticks promptly.
Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick close to the skin and pull straight up with steady pressure. Clean the area afterward and watch for rash or fever.
