Older cottages and newer homes share this riverside village. Pets that wander the fields and riverbank can bring fleas back indoors.
A mix of older cottages and newer homes, with the Trent on one side and farmland on the other, means Farndon pets roam widely. A cat out all night near the river and fields is a common source. Cottages often have uneven floors and removable rugs, and newer homes have fitted carpet. The cycle continues in both once the eggs are laid, so the first visit makes sense as soon as you see bites.
We look first at where the animal sleeps, then check the carpets, stairs and upholstered chairs. Rugs can be treated and then washed if the label allows. The free advice we give afterwards covers vacuuming, bedding and how to keep up your pet's flea treatment with your vet. If the bites stop for a week and then return, tell us, since it is likely to be hatching pupae.
Pupae hatch at different times, so fleas can reappear after a quiet week. It is common after treatment. Keep vacuuming and let us know if it continues beyond a few weeks. Keep the pet treated meanwhile.
Wildlife and roaming pets near rivers and fields can carry fleas, but the location does not decide whether you get them. Treat pets regularly and act quickly when you see signs. Treating pets regularly is the main defence.
Yes. Pets should be treated as well, and your vet can advise on suitable flea treatment alongside the home treatment.
