Fleas can build up quickly, especially in warm weather and in homes with cats or dogs. You may notice itchy bites around the ankles, pets scratching more than usual, or tiny dark specks on the carpet and pet bedding. Sometimes people moving into a rental in Keperra find fleas left behind by the last tenant's pets. Call us and we will give you upfront pricing for flea treatment.
The crew we book treats the floors, rugs, pet sleeping spots and, where needed, the yard and subfloor. The spray includes an insect growth inhibitor that stops eggs and larvae from turning into adult fleas, which is the key to breaking the cycle. Your pets also need a flea product from your vet or pet shop on the day of the visit, or the fleas come straight back.
- Vacuum all carpets, rugs and couches before the visit and empty the vacuum outside
- Wash pet bedding in hot water
- Pick up toys, clothes and shoes from the floor
- Treat your pets on the day of the visit
- Keep people and pets off treated floors until they are dry
After treatment, keep vacuuming every day or two for a couple of weeks. The vibration wakes fleas that are still in their cocoons, and they then come into contact with the treated surface. It is normal to see a few fleas for a short while after the visit.
Shaded yards and the ground under highset homes in Keperra can hold fleas too, so mention them when you book. To arrange flea treatment, call 07 3543 7768 and we will book a nearby crew.
