Mostly semi-detached and well carpeted, Woodthorpe homes suit fleas that arrive on a family pet. Our treatment covers the places the eggs end up.
Near the park, dog walks mean pets are in contact with grass, other dogs and shared spaces every day, and fleas can hitch a ride from any of them. Back at home, the dog shakes, the cat flops on the sofa and the eggs fall into the carpet. Weeks later someone notices a bite on the ankle and a speck jumping off a sock.
Our visit starts with a look at the pet's favourite spots, then moves through the carpets, stairs and soft furnishings. In a typical semi that means lounge, hall, stairs and bedrooms, sometimes a conservatory too. We explain what to wash and how often to vacuum for the next few weeks. Fixed cost pricing is agreed up front, and your vet can advise on treating the pet itself.
Yes, hot where the label allows, then dry thoroughly. Washing removes eggs and larvae from fabric. Ask your vet about the pet's own treatment, as bedding alone does not clear fleas from the animal. Do not mix bedding between treated and untreated animals.
Fleas are present all the time, but you notice them when you are still. Warm bedrooms and carpets by the bed are good places for them, and bites appear while you sleep. Vacuuming beside the bed helps.
Yes. Pets should be treated as well, and your vet can advise on suitable flea treatment alongside the home treatment.

When the evenings turn cold, the rats that have been living outside look for somewhere warmer. A semi next to a park can look very inviting indeed.
Read the advice →A cockroach in a family semi comes as a shock, and the first reaction is often embarrassment. They are far more often carried in than invited.
