Flea Treatment in Havering: what we see locally
Havering's country parks, commons and footpaths, from Hornchurch Country Park and Rainham Marshes to Havering Country Park and the Thames Chase Forest, are popular with dog walkers, and they're also home to foxes, deer and rabbits that carry fleas. Pets often bring fleas home in summer and early autumn.
We also treat fleas in homes where new occupants have moved in after a previous owner's pet, as dormant flea pupae can hatch months later. Our treatment covers carpets, floors and soft furnishings in the treated rooms, and we explain how to treat your pets with your vet.
Where we find fleas in Havering
- Homes with dogs and cats: Pets pick up fleas on walks and in gardens.
- Rural homes: Wildlife and farm animals can bring fleas close to the house.
- Newly occupied homes: Dormant pupae hatch when people move in.
- Carpeted bedrooms and lounges: Carpet and underlay protect developing larvae.
Our flea treatment service covers the whole of Havering, including Collier Row, Elm Park, Emerson Park, Gidea Park, Harold Hill, Harold Wood, Hornchurch, Rainham, Romford and Upminster, with same-day or next-day visits.
Keeping fleas out of Havering homes
Keep every pet on a vet-recommended flea treatment all year, wash pet bedding weekly and vacuum often, including sofas and under beds. After walks in country parks, check your dog's coat for fleas.
