www.meds-4-pets.com It’s important to be very thorough when treating because ticks can move around a house quite easily. Treat all carpeting and upholstered furniture with Zodiac premise control products. Ticks often hide in crevices and underneath furniture, as well in baseboards. They climb vertically, so it’s important to treat the sides and backs of upholstered furniture. You may also see ticks on walls and other smooth, vertical surfaces. Check these surfaces, and remove ticks in any places you are not able to spray. Pay special attention to closets, storage places, and other areas where ticks can hide under or behind objects. www.morethanapet.com

Go to the vet and buy a can of flea & tick spray for the house. Then spray everywhere it says on the can.

Ticks are a lil fun to get rid of in your home. First id try to narrow down the rooms that have them the worst. Use your crevice tool on your vacuum, and vacuum the corners, and along the wall very well. Id also go round all the cushions and cracks in your furniture. You can find a pyrethrin spray(which has no residual) online at www.doityourselfpestcontrol.com one product is called 565 or P.I. You can also try your local hardware store, usually the flying insect sprays you use to fog the room have a synthetic form of pyrethrin called permethrin which will work as well. Main thing is you can use this to treat the cracks and crevices, and folds in your furniture. It will be ok because if you find one that just has permethrin or pyrethrin it wont have any kind of residual its just a contact insecticide. And youll also want to do an outside inspection and see how they came in, look for tall areas of grass or thick brush. You can use almost any insecticide labeled to applied to plants.

Put frontline on as many of your animals as you can afford to. If you don't have any animals borrow one (a cat will do) You get frontline from your vet.It has to be frontline not the stuff you can buy at the store. It's not cheap but it will get rid of fleas and ticks even from the yard. it works quickly and it works 100% even in the yard. Also, Frontline says to reapply every month,but, it works much longer 4-6 months or longer. You will need to vaccum your carpets often to remove dead fleas and larva. I would also wash your throw rugs and bedding. Within a couple of days you should be rid of the little boogers. Good luck!!

Ticks love caps. Turn off the capslock and they'll go away.

I am battling the same problem. I just purchased a house that is infested with Ticks. I have had the bug people out 3 times now and I even bombed the house and they are still coming out. I used the Permethrin spray in the yard and removed all the basboards and carpet in the home. I can't move in until they are gone....My animals are on Frontline Plus. Let me know how your remedies work for you, and I will do the same. Ticked off in Florida!
