Flea Treatment in Richmond upon Thames: what we see locally
Richmond Park and Bushy Park are home to hundreds of deer, and the borough's commons and riverside paths are full of dog walkers. Deer, foxes and other wildlife carry fleas that pets pick up, especially in summer and early autumn.
We also treat fleas in rented homes where previous occupants had pets. Our treatment covers carpets, floors and soft furnishings, and we explain how to treat your pets with your vet.
Fleas thrive in Richmond's carpeted family homes and breed fastest from July to October, when dog walkers in the parks are busiest.
