We need good access to carry out the treatment so please make sure all floor space is clear.
Thoroughly hoover throughout and empty the dust collection bag or canister.
Arrange for all pets, children, other family members and fish tanks to be out of the property for 4 hours from commencement of our treatment.
How many Flea extermination treatments will I need?
More often than not only 1 extermination is required, this is if the above recommendations have been carried out, the pet has been treated with a flea treatment from your vets and the property continues to be lived in.
Sometimes a 2nd treatment is required if it is a severe infestation or the property is not being lived in, this is because fleas can live dormant for a period of up to 18 months and will not hatch until the property is lived in as regular movement in the property causes vibration which activates the flea from its dormant state.
