Fleas travel easily between flats, shared houses and terraces in the city. We treat the carpets and furnishings where the eggs and pupae are actually hiding.
A busy city means a steady turnover of tenants, and fleas take advantage of it. Eggs and pupae can sit in a carpet for weeks after the last pet or occupant has gone, then hatch when someone new moves in and the room warms up. That is why a house that looked fine on viewing day can be biting by the end of the first week. Treating only the person or the pet who is being bitten rarely settles it.
Older Victorian terraces often have gaps under skirting boards and between floorboards, which give flea larvae somewhere to hide away from the vacuum cleaner. Many properties here also have cellars or shared hallways. We inspect the rooms where the pet sleeps and where people sit, treat carpets and soft furnishings, and explain what to wash and when to vacuum. Fixed cost pricing means you know the figure before we start, with no call-out charge added.
Flea pupae can stay dormant in carpets for a long time and hatch when they sense warmth, vibration and movement. A new occupant walking in can trigger them all at once. Treating the rooms and carpets is needed, not only the pet.
Yes, we treat rented homes as well as owned ones. It helps to tell the landlord or agent so access and any shared areas are sorted out, and we can explain what to do before and after the visit.
Yes. Pets should be treated as well, and your vet can advise on suitable flea treatment alongside the home treatment.
