Dense terraced streets make it easy for fleas to settle in carpets and stay there. We find where they are breeding and treat the home properly.
In the tight rows of terraces west of the city centre, rooms are small and carpets often run wall to wall from front door to back kitchen. That suits fleas. A single pet that has picked them up on a walk can seed the whole ground floor within a few weeks, and the eggs drop off into the pile wherever the animal rests. By the time the bites start, the problem is already well spread.
Houses of this age can have bare boards under old carpets and plenty of cracks along the skirting, where larvae feed on dust and flea droppings. We treat the areas pets and people use most, including sofas and bedding, and tell you how to wash and vacuum so the treatment can do its job. Your vet can advise on the right product for the animal itself, which still needs doing alongside our work. Fixed cost pricing applies.
Not for long. Fleas prefer pets, but they will bite people, mostly around the ankles and lower legs. The eggs and young stages stay in the carpet and bedding, so the home needs treating, not just the skin.
It depends on how many pupae are left in the carpets, because some hatch after the treatment is applied. You may still see a few fleas for a short while, which is why vacuuming and following the advice matter.
Yes. Pets should be treated as well, and your vet can advise on suitable flea treatment alongside the home treatment.
