Pest Control - Fleas
What are Fleas? Fleas are small parasites that need to live on a host to survive. Although they are often found on pets you might not realise that fleas are a common problem across the UK even in homes where there are no pets as they can live on other animals such as rodents or rabbits. Fleas are usually found in soft furnishings such as carpets and in dark areas such as underneath beds. Signs of Fleas If there are fleas in your home or business then there are often a few tell-tale signs that they are there and even one of these could indicate that you have an infestation. l Flea droppings - these are small and black and often have the appearance of fine grit. Flea droppings can be found on your pet’s coat or on any surface in your home. l Fleas spotted on your pets or around your house. As fleas do not have wings they cannot fly, instead, they jump, and this is an easy way to tell if it is in fact a flea that you have found. l Flea bites - these are often raised red bumps
