Flea Treatment in Barnet: what we see locally
Barnet is full of dog walkers, from Hampstead Heath Extension and Totteridge Fields to Mill Hill's open spaces, so fleas are a common summer problem. Pets pick them up outdoors, and flea eggs drop into carpets, sofas and pet beds at home.
We also see a lot of flea problems in Barnet properties that have recently changed hands. Dormant flea pupae can wait in carpets for months and hatch when new occupants arrive. Our treatment covers every floor surface in the treated rooms, and we explain how to treat your pets at the same time.
Where we find fleas in Barnet
- Homes with cats and dogs: Pets bring fleas back from parks and gardens.
- Recently let or sold properties: Pupae left by a previous pet can hatch when you move in.
- Carpeted bedrooms and lounges: Thick carpet gives flea larvae a perfect place to develop.
- Gardens visited by foxes and hedgehogs: Wildlife can carry fleas into gardens and sheds.
Our flea treatment service covers the whole of Barnet, including Childs Hill, Chipping Barnet, Colindale, East Barnet, East Finchley, Edgware, Finchley, Friern Barnet, Golders Green, Hendon, Mill Hill, New Barnet, North Finchley, Totteridge and Whetstone, with same-day or next-day visits.
Keeping fleas out of Barnet homes
Treat every cat and dog with a vet-recommended flea product all year round, wash pet bedding weekly and vacuum regularly, including sofas and under furniture. If you've just moved into a Barnet home that had pets, a precautionary treatment can save a lot of bites.
