Birstall sits between Batley and Cleckheaton, and its mix of old stone houses and later estates means no two flea jobs look exactly alike.
In older stone housing, fleas often collect along skirting boards and in the dust beneath rugs, where nothing disturbs them for weeks. On later estates, deep fitted carpet is the usual refuge.

Thank you Sean and Zack for your speedy and efficient response to our wasp problem. We originally thought we had 2 wasps nests but on the end had 4. After our initial call they came out the next day and even came out a few days later when another next was discovered. Thank you, we will definitely recommend you.Mrs Carter8 August 2018
