Professional Flea Treatments In Widnes

A flea infestation can be terrible. Even if you only have one cat or a dog, they can get everywhere without proper Widnes flea treatment. However, if you have lots of pets, maybe two dogs and a cat, then it can be an absolute nightmare, especially if you are prone to be bitten.

Facts about fleas

• Many people think fleas have wings, but this is not true. In fact, they jump great distances and can jump 150 times their own height. That’s the same as a human being able to jump over a skyscraper such as the Empire State Building. 
• Fleas feed only on blood – be it human or animal – and can live for up to 100 days without blood. This means that they can live for quite a long time.
• Couple this long life span with the fact that an adult female flea can lay up to 2000 eggs in her lifetime, and you can begin to see how fleas multiply and become such a big problem in the home.

The only way to ensure flea removal is by hiring specialists in pest control to employ Widnes flea treatment such as flea fumigation. These treatments are carried out in homes all over the world and pose no risk to humans and larger animals such as:

• Hamsters
• Reptiles
• Dogs
• Cats

However, to ensure the proper treatment, properties must be empty whilst the flea fumigation takes place. This is because these treatments really get into the hard to reach areas that would otherwise be missed or inaccessible, and an empty house ensures all areas are covered.

Whilst a flea infestation carries no deadly harm to humans. However, it can have real consequences for pets.
