Fleas

Fleas are common throughout the UK, cats & dogs typically being the originator. Cat & dog fleas are not known to carry any disease serious to humans however the bite of adult fleas is intensely itchy and aggravating to all hosts. Flea control is easily achieved if specific processes are followed and maintained. We have many years of undertaking Flea control in Newbury, Thatcham, Hungerford and throughout the surrounding area.

Fleas still in a development phase at the time of treatment will be protected from the acute effect of insecticides used. Consequently fleas will develop and remain present although in much smaller numbers. A secondary component within the treatment addresses these remaining fleas although this can take up three weeks to be fully effective. Treatment to pets must continue. Be aware flea pupa can assume a dormant phase for extended periods, emerging when disturbed and a possible host is present. Thorough hoovering should be maintained.
