Flea Treatment in Redbridge: what we see locally
Epping Forest, Hainault Forest, Wanstead Flats and Valentines Park are popular with dog walkers, and they're home to deer, foxes and other wildlife that carry fleas. Pets often bring fleas home in summer and early autumn.
We also treat fleas in rented homes where previous tenants had pets. Our treatment covers carpets, floors and soft furnishings, and we explain how to treat your pets with your vet.
Fleas thrive in Redbridge's carpeted family homes and breed fastest from July to October. Many calls come from families in Ilford and Seven Kings who have just moved into a home where a previous occupant had pets.
