Expert Flea Pest Control to Remove Your Fleas, Fast!

Pest ID are experts in the removal of flea infestations from homes and businesses. Acting quickly and following our instruction is key to successful and quick destruction of flea colonies.

Fleas are a common and frustrating pest in UK homes, particularly for households with pets. These tiny insects feed on blood and can quickly spread throughout a property, causing discomfort for both humans and animals.

Fleas don’t just stay on pets. They can infest:

  • Carpets and rugs
  • Sofas and soft furnishings
  • Pet bedding (cat fleas are the most common type)
  • Cracks in flooring and skirting boards


A single flea infestation can escalate rapidly, as fleas reproduce quickly and their eggs can remain dormant before hatching later. Not only are they are a skin irritant, they can cause allergic reactions in people and pets.

DIY treatments often fail to fully resolve the issue, as they do not eliminate eggs and larvae hidden deep within carpets and furnishings. Professional treatment is highly recommended for complete eradication.

Our experienced technicians provide:

  • Fast, effective flea control
  • Safe treatments for homes with pets and families
  • Coverage across Essex and East London, including Chelmsford, Southend, and Basildon
