Recognising the Signs of a Flea Infestation
Spotting fleas early can help prevent a widespread infestation. Keep an eye out for these common indicators:
- Excessive Pet Scratching: If your cat or dog is scratching, biting, or grooming themselves more than usual, especially around the neck, ears, or base of the tail, it's often the first clue.
- Flea Bites on Humans: Flea bites typically appear as small, red, itchy bumps, often clustered together or in a line, commonly found around ankles, legs, or other exposed skin.
- "Flea Dirt" on Pets or Bedding: These are tiny black specks, which are actually flea faeces. If you dab them with a wet tissue, they'll turn reddish-brown. You might find them on your pet's fur, bedding, or even carpets.
- Seeing Live Fleas: While tiny (around 2-3mm), you might spot fleas jumping on your pets, furniture, or carpets, especially on lighter surfaces.
If any of these signs sound familiar, don't put off getting professional help.

Who We Are
Why Professional Flea Treatment is Absolutely Essential
Many people try to tackle flea problems with off-the-shelf sprays and powders, but these often fail to deliver lasting results. Fleas have a complex life cycle, with eggs, larvae, and pupae hidden deep within carpets, upholstery, and cracks. DIY products rarely penetrate these harborage points effectively, meaning you only kill the adult fleas, leaving behind the next generation ready to hatch.
Our professional flea control service uses specialist, professional-grade insecticides and techniques that are simply unavailable to the public. These treatments are specifically formulated to target all stages of the flea life cycle, breaking the breeding cycle and providing a thorough, long-term solution. As BPCA affiliated members, our methods adhere to the highest industry standards for safety and effectiveness, protecting your home and family.

When you contact Moorlander Pest Control about a flea problem in your Tiverton home, here’s how we ensure a thorough and effective treatment:
- Detailed Site Inspection: Our expert technicians begin with a meticulous inspection of your property to confirm the presence of fleas, identify the extent of the infestation, and locate key areas of activity and harborage.
- Targeted Treatment Application: We use professional-grade insecticide sprays, carefully applied to carpets, rugs, upholstered furniture, pet bedding areas, and skirting boards. These areas are where fleas lay their eggs and hide. We select products that are highly effective against fleas but safe for use in domestic environments when applied correctly by our qualified team.
- Preparation Guidance: Before our visit, we'll provide clear, easy-to-follow advice on how to prepare your home, such as vacuuming thoroughly and washing pet bedding. This preparation is crucial for the success of the treatment.
- Post-Treatment Advice: After the treatment, we'll give you essential advice on what to expect and how to help prevent future infestations, ensuring a long-term solution to your flea problems.

Once we've eradicated the current flea problem, keeping them away is key. Here are some steps you can take, alongside our professional treatment:
- Treat Your Pets Regularly: Work with your vet to establish a consistent, veterinarian-approved flea treatment plan for all your pets. This is often the primary source of fleas entering your home.
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum carpets, rugs, and upholstery frequently, paying close attention to cracks and crevices. Dispose of the vacuum bag immediately after use to prevent eggs from hatching.
- Wash Pet Bedding: Regularly wash all pet bedding at a high temperature (at least 60°C) to kill fleas and eggs.
