£180 for one, £420 for five. Getting the number right first time is worth more than getting it low — and here is how to tell.
Count the rooms the pet actually uses, not the rooms where you have been bitten. One room is £180; five is £420.
Guessing low costs more, because an untreated room reseeds the treated ones and a second visit starts again at £180.
| Rooms | Total | Per room |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | £180 | £180 |
| 2 | £240 | £120 |
| 3 | £300 | £100 |
| 4 | £360 | £90 |
| 5 | £420 | £84 |
The per-room figure falls as rooms are added because the travel, setup and assessment are already covered in the first room.

View Flea Control Stanmore →| Approach | What happens | Total cost |
|---|---|---|
| Treat 4 rooms correctly | Resolved | £360 |
| Treat 2, then 2 more later | Untreated rooms reseed; second visit starts at £180 | £420+ |
| Treat 2 and hope | Recurs; full treatment needed anyway | £240 wasted |
| Treat 5 when 3 was right | Over-treated, but resolved | £420 — £120 more than needed |
The expensive mistake is under-counting, not over-counting. If you are genuinely unsure between three and four, include the fourth.
An untreated room does not stay untreated. It becomes the room that reinfests the other three, at which point you have paid £300 for a delay.
| Space | Counts? |
|---|---|
| Living room, bedroom, dining room | Yes |
| Hall | Yes |
| Stairs and landing | Yes — usually one between them |
| Kitchen with a pet bed | Yes |
| Utility or boot room | Yes |
| Conservatory or garden room | Yes |
| Study or snug | Yes, if the pet goes in |
| Bathroom | Only if the pet goes in |
| Garage | Only if the pet uses it |
| A room the pet never enters | No |
Usually yes, at £60, if we are already there. It is much cheaper than a second visit.
The ladder is the price. Five rooms at £420 is the practical ceiling for a domestic job.
No. If you do not need treatment we will tell you and there is nothing to pay.
Published pricing across every service — wasp nests are £90 fixed in Stanmore, guaranteed for 30 days.
Follow the pet for one full day and write down every room it enters, including where it sleeps and the route between. That list is your room count.
No. You get bitten where you sit still; the fleas are where the eggs fell.
When the pet is restricted to one room, there are hard floors elsewhere, and it was caught within a week or two.
An untreated room reseeds the treated ones, and a second visit starts again at £180. Under-counting is the expensive mistake.
Hall, stairs and landing on one continuous carpet are usually counted as one between them.
Usually yes, at £60, if we are already there. It is much cheaper than a second visit.
There is no pet to treat, so property treatment alone resolves it — but count every carpeted room, since you do not know where the previous pet went.
The ladder is the price. Five rooms at £420 is the practical ceiling for a domestic job.
Follow the pet for a day. That number is more accurate than any guess, and cheaper than under-counting.
