The parasitologist Maggie Fisher is coordinating a survey across the UK on behalf of Bayer Healthcare, to test the efficacy of their flea treatment 'Advantage'.

She is looking to enlist some new practices to help her collect field strains of flea eggs in return for payment of £40 per sample.

If you are regularly seeing flea ridden cats or dogs and could help collect one or more samples of flea eggs by the end of November then please contact Jo Goodman on 01594 530809 or email her at Jo@ridgewayresearch.co.uk.
