BPCA Predicts Explosion of Fleas

2014-06-25_1006It appears a mild winter and a hot summer isn’t always a good thing. The British Pest Control Association is warning pet owners that under such conditions one flea can turn into 125,000 within eight weeks, and can bite 400 times a day!

Fortunately Octavius Hunt’s permethrin smoke generator can solve this problem.  Our public health insecticide smokes have knockdown and kill effectiveness and total area coverage. Being a smoke it reaches inaccessible areas, all those cracks and crevices hiding nasty fleas. Not only does permethrin offer a thorough treatment but  smoke is non-tainting and leaves no residual odour.
