Professional Flea Control in Blackheath
Two flea patterns show up in Blackheath. The first is the ordinary one - a cat or dog, and an infestation that is mostly in the carpet rather than on the animal. The second catches people out: a period flat taken on between tenancies, and bites within days of moving in.
Fleas in a Property With No Pet
Flea pupae sit in a protected cocoon and wait, and what brings them out is warmth and the vibration of somebody walking past. An empty flat is a room full of dormant pupae with nothing to trigger them. New occupancy supplies exactly the trigger, which is why bites can start within days of a move into a property whose previous occupants had an animal.
The other local route is wildlife rather than pets. Gardens backing onto open ground, and access under a period floor or into an outbuilding, will do it without a household animal being involved at all.
The aftercare is the opposite of what people expect. Vacuum thoroughly before the visit, then keep walking on the treated floors and do not clean them for two weeks. Footfall is what brings the remaining pupae out into the treatment; cleaning removes the treatment before it has done its job.

Signs You May Need Flea Control in Blackheath
The full list is on the Flea Control Greenwich page.
- Bites around the ankles and lower legs. Small, intensely itchy, often several close together, and concentrated below the knee because that is where fleas can reach from the floor.
- A pet scratching more than usual. Particularly at the base of the tail and along the back.
- Flea dirt in the pet's coat or bedding. Dark specks that turn reddish-brown when placed on damp tissue.
How We Deal With Fleas in Blackheath
Treatment goes to the floor perimeters, under furniture and the areas the animal used - in a period room, the edges and the gaps at the boards matter more than the middle of the carpet.

Coming soonFrequently Asked Questions – Flea Control Blackheath
I have just moved in and there is no pet. Where have they come from?
Almost certainly from a previous occupant's animal. The pupae stay dormant in an empty property and hatch once somebody is walking about again. Tell us it is a new tenancy - it tells us which rooms to prioritise.
How much does flea control cost in Blackheath?
£180 for the first room and £60 for each additional room - the same published figure everywhere we cover.
How do I know whether I have fleas?
Intensely itchy bites around the ankles and lower legs, a pet scratching at the base of the tail, and dark specks in the coat or bedding that turn reddish-brown on damp tissue.
Do you help landlords and rental properties?
Yes. A great deal of Blackheath's period housing is let as flats in converted houses, and we take enquiries from landlords, letting agents, managing agents and tenants alike.
Can businesses arrange treatment?
Yes. The Village and the Standard have a good number of independent shops and food premises, and commercial enquiries are welcome.
How do I arrange a visit?
Call us and say which room the activity is in, whether the property is a house or a flat in a converted house, and whether your neighbours have noticed the same thing. For fleas, tell us how many rooms the pet uses, whether the floors are carpeted, and whether anyone is bitten in a room the animal does not go into.
