Our professional technicians target carpets, upholstery, and hard-to-reach areas to ensure your home returns to a safe, bug-free environment. Fleas are small parasites that grow to about 3mm long and feed off the blood of cats, dogs and humans. They normally live for 2 to 4-months. Cat fleas are the most common type of flea found in the UK. Their eggs are comparatively large, 0.5 mm in length, oval or round in shape and pearly white in colour. They are sticky and attract debris from their surrounding habitat which camouflages their appearance. Fleas live in carpets and are rarely seen, only leaving the carpet to feed by jumping onto a cat or dog. If they jump onto soft furnishings or clothing they’ll always return to the carpet. They don’t live on humans and only bite them if a cat or dog isn’t available to feed on. They are only able to breed when feeding on their preferred host. A home or business will still need treatment even when the fleas’ preferred host pet isn’t present as they will be forced to feed on humans. 1. Environmental Insecticide Treatments Household flea sprays and professional treatments generally rely on a dual-action formula containing a quick-acting insecticide and an Insect Growth Regulator Adulticides: Chemicals like Permethrin or Cypermethrin target and kill adult fleas on contact by disrupting their nervous systems 2. Step-by-Step Eradication Protocol Applying an insecticide alone will not resolve an infestation due to the physical resilience of flea pupae cocoons. Follow this workflow for maximum effectiveness Preparation: Vacuum all carpets, rugs, and soft furnishings thoroughly. The physical vibration coaxes pupae out of their dormant cocoons, making them vulnerable to the chemical spray. Move furniture away from walls to expose hidden breeding grounds Laundering: Gather all pet bedding, throw blankets, and rugs that have touched the floor. Hot-wash them at a minimum of 60°C and tumble-dry on high heat Application: Evenly apply a residual household insecticide spray, across all floor surfaces, baseboards, and under furniture. Evacuate the treated rooms for at least 60 minutes or until completely dry The No-Vacuum Window: Do not vacuum or wash the carpets for at least 14 days after chemical application. This allows the residual chemical layer to stay intact so emerging adult fleas die as they hatch
