Flea Treatment in City of London: what we see locally
Although the City is mainly offices, thousands of people live in the Barbican, Golden Lane, Middlesex Street and other residential estates, and many have cats or dogs. Fleas can build up in carpets and soft furnishings, especially in warm, centrally heated flats.
We also see flea problems in flats where a previous tenant had pets, as flea pupae can lie dormant for months. Our treatment covers carpets, floors and furniture, and we explain how to treat your pets with your vet.
Fleas are also brought in by urban foxes, which are common around the City's churchyards, gardens and estates at night. Ground-floor and podium-level flats with access to gardens can be affected even if you don't have pets.
