Sentinel GuardTrusted Flea & Tick Control in Metzger, Oregon
Metzger's location between Beaverton and Tigard means small lots, mature trees, and plenty of shared green space — ideal conditions for fleas and ticks to travel between yards, pets, and wildlife. Raccoons, opossums, and stray cats crossing backyards are the #1 way flea infestations start in Metzger homes, and ticks hitch rides on deer and rodents along the nearby Fanno Creek corridor.
Whether you're off Hall Boulevard near Metzger Park or tucked into the residential streets off Scholls Ferry Road, our technicians know the neighborhoods we serve. We time our flea & tick treatments around the Pacific Northwest's long pest season — which can stretch from early spring well into November — so your pets and family stay protected year-round. If fleas have already gotten inside, we'll clear them at every life stage and help you keep them from coming back.
If your pets are scratching nonstop or you're finding ticks after walks near Gabriel Park or your own backyard, you're not alone — fleas and ticks thrive in Metzger's mild, damp climate. These pests don't just make pets miserable; they bite people too, and a few fleas can turn into a full-blown house infestation in weeks.
Our flea & tick control service treats the whole problem, not just the symptoms. We treat your home, yard, and pet areas together, breaking the flea life cycle so the problem doesn't come roaring back the moment treatment wears off.

Our Flea & Tick Control Process
- Inspect & Assess We check pet resting spots, carpeted areas, crawl spaces, and the yard to map out where fleas and ticks are breeding on your property.
- Treat the Home We apply targeted treatments to floors, furniture, pet bedding, and cracks where larvae develop, using products safe for households when applied as directed.
- Treat the Yard We focus on shaded, moist zones — fence lines, shrubs, tall grass, and decks — where ticks quest and flea larvae develop in Metzger yards.
- Follow-Up Because flea eggs can hatch after treatment, we schedule a follow-up visit to knock out any survivors and confirm the infestation is fully cleared.
