Billions of super-fleas with massive penises are expected to invade bedrooms across south-east London this autumn.

The new breed of so called super-fleas, which are far bigger than other fleas, will come out of hibernation, according to experts.


The new flea breed is believed to have come from Europe over the past few years.

Rob Simpson, of pest control group Basis Prompt, said: “Fleas which would usually remain dormant for much longer, became active sooner, leading to more prolific breeding and therefore a larger population.”

Pharmacists have reported a surge in sales of flea bite cream.
