Fleas are a cause of intense irritation to both pets and their owners! However the key to controlling them is to understand their life-cycle.
Adult fleas, which are typically just 2mm in length (and clearly visible without magnification), spend the majority of their lives on pets, feeding on blood and reproducing.
Female fleas commonly lay 30-60 or more eggs per day - thus a brief infestation can result in thousands of eggs being produced! These tiny white eggs fall off the coat of the animal and are deposited around your home in carpets and bedding.
The eggs can remain dormant for many months before developing via larval and pupal stages into more adult fleas. We have a range of safe and very effective flea products, both for your pet and your home.
Please ask us to advise you on the best form of flea control to suit your individual requirements.
