Before you ring

What changes the cost?

Fleas or bed bugs, how many rooms, carpet or hard floors, and whether it’s a lived-in home or an empty rental. Quotes are free.

Can it wait?

Treating the pet doesn’t reach the eggs and young fleas in the carpet, and each one that hatches starts biting.

What happens on the visit?

Stu checks what’s biting first, then treats room by room: floors and pet beds for fleas; beds, frames and seams for bed bugs.

Fleas in the carpet

Fleas live in the carpet, the pet bedding and the cracks in the floor, and they jump on whoever walks past. Spring and early summer are when insects pick up in a house. Treating the pet alone doesn’t clear the eggs and young fleas waiting in the carpet, so Stu treats the floors and the places your pets sleep, room by room.

Fleas jump onto people as readily as pets, which is why the bites show up round the ankles first, and why a house that has stood empty for a few weeks can greet the next people through the door.

Very good service. Highly recommend to anyone

Between tenants

Landlords have to hand over a place free of pests at the start of a tenancy. When pests turn up later and nobody caused them, who pays isn’t clear-cut, and landlords and tenants often split the cost.

A flea treatment after a tenant with pets moves out, and before the next one moves in, is the clean way to start. Stu treats rentals for owners, property managers and tenants.

Is it bed bugs?

One customer had already been told by others that she had bed bugs. Stu looked first, with a torch and a magnifying glass, and it turned out to be a different beetle altogether, with a different fix.

Bites from the bed aren’t always bed bugs, and the treatment is different for each. Stu looks at the bug first, with a torch and a close look at the mattress seams and bed frame, then tells you straight what it is and what to do next, from the laundry to the vacuuming.

If it is bed bugs, the beds, frames and the cracks around them are treated, room by room, with the steps for you in between.

What Stu does about it

  1. Checks what’s biting

    Fleas, bed bugs or something else, before any treatment.

  2. Gets the house ready with you

    What to vacuum, wash and move before he starts.

  3. Treats room by room

    Floors, pet beds and cracks for fleas; beds, frames and seams for bed bugs.

  4. Checks back

    Eggs hatch after the treatment, so Stu makes sure the new ones are dealt with too.

What customers say

This is our 4th time wime with Owen. I can see a huge difference especially in the amount of flies afterwards. All the dead bugs a few days later aswell. Owen is great and will always make sure to cover stuff that aint covered inside the house. He even lock our cat door so kitty cant come inside afterwards. Thanks!! Will be using again nxt year

Questions

Another question? Call 0800 164 102, or put it on the quote form and Stu will answer it.

We’ve treated the cat. Why are there still fleas?

The eggs and young fleas are in the carpet and the pet beds, waiting to hatch. The house needs treating as well as the pet.

Can you treat before new tenants move in?

Yes. Between tenants is the easiest time: an empty house, every room open.

How do I know if it’s bed bugs?

Send Stu a photo of the bug or the bites and where they happen. He checks before he treats, and tells you straight if it’s something else.
