Flea control Newcastle
Because of their small size fleas are often transported into your home via pets so are much more common in homes with cats and dogs. Fleas feed off blood and need your blood to reproduce so if you have fleas you are guaranteed to be bitten. Fleas and eggs can lay dormant in an empty property and are only awakened by noise, heat and vibrations – all signs they will be getting fed today! Flea control in Newcastle can be difficult and costly if trying to do it the DIY route so we advise getting in a professional such as ourselves.

Signs of fleas
Pest sightings are often the first sign that you have pests but because fleas are so small you may have trouble seeing them until the numbers are such that they are bouncing all over you and are then very difficult to miss. Other signs are:
Bite marks – small red spots on your skin and your pets which are really very itchy and painful
Itching – if you or your pets are scratching more often and you feel itchy this is often a sign of fleas.
Flea droppings – these are small dark specs you may see on your light coloured soft furnishings or on your pests skin and bedding
Eggs – Flea eggs are very small and white and look like a grain of salt and will be in your pets bedding

How do I know if I have a flea infestation in my Newcastle home?
Common signs of a flea infestation include itchy bites on your ankles or legs, pets scratching more than usual, tiny black flea dirt on carpets or pet bedding, and seeing small jumping insects. If you notice these signs, professional flea control in Newcastle can quickly identify the extent of the infestation and recommend the most effective treatment.
What is the best flea treatment in Newcastle?
The best flea treatment in Newcastle is a professional pest control service that treats the entire property using approved insecticides designed to eliminate adult fleas, larvae, and eggs. DIY products often kill adult fleas but fail to break the flea life cycle, allowing the infestation to return.
Do I need to treat my pets as well as my home?
Yes. For successful flea control, both your home and your pets should be treated at the same time. Your veterinarian can recommend the most suitable flea treatment for your pets, while a professional pest control technician treats the property.
Do I need more than one flea treatment?
Some infestations are controlled with one professional treatment combined with proper aftercare. Severe infestations may require a follow-up visit, especially if the property has not been vacuumed regularly or pets have not been treated.
How much does flea treatment cost in Newcastle?
The cost of flea treatment in Newcastle depends on the size of your property and the severity of the infestation. Most professional pest control companies provide a free quote after discussing your situation. Investing in professional flea treatment can save money by preventing repeat infestations. Our price starts from £150 per treatment and 2 visits maybe required.
Can I vacuum after flea treatment?
Yes, but you should wait until the recommended time provided by your pest control technician. Regular vacuuming after treatment encourages flea pupae to hatch, but also removes the insecticide that would kill the flea.
