Halifax homes climb the valley sides in tiers, and fleas move up and down those stairs as easily as the family does. Treatment follows that route.
Many Halifax terraces are built on slopes, with the front door on one level and the back garden on another, sometimes with cellars or extra floors below. Stairs everywhere mean heavy foot traffic on carpet, and fleas disperse along those routes. A cat sleeping on a top-floor bed can turn the stair carpet into a flea highway within a few weeks.
Former mill buildings that now house flats and workspaces bring their own concerns: shared corridors, shared bin areas and mixed-use floors. We tailor the approach to the building. Commercial service contracts are available, and a free survey for homes and businesses can be arranged. The price of treatment depends on the number of rooms and levels, the extent of the problem and the number of visits.
Usually more time and more careful coverage, because fleas move between floors on stair carpets and on people's clothes. The price depends on the rooms and levels involved and how widespread the fleas are. Ask us.
That rarely works. Most fleas are in the house as eggs, larvae and pupae, not on the animal. If you only treat the pet, new fleas can keep hatching in the carpet and jumping back on.
