Some flea problems in New Farm need more than one visit. If the home has thick carpet, several pets, a big build-up under the house, or fleas that keep coming back every summer, a flea control plan makes more sense than a single spray. It is a short, planned run of visits rather than a one-off job.
A typical plan is two visits about two weeks apart. The first treatment knocks down the adult fleas and larvae. The gap lets the pupae, which are hard to reach inside their cocoons, hatch into the treated home. The second visit catches the next wave before it can breed. Both visits are priced upfront on the phone, so you can decide before anything is booked.
When you call, tell us how long the fleas have been around, what you have already tried and how many pets live in the home. We then book a nearby independent crew for the first visit at a time that suits you. A flea control plan usually covers these steps.
- A walk-through to find where fleas are breeding
- A first treatment of floors, pet areas and hiding spots
- Daily vacuuming by you between visits
- A second treatment around two weeks later
- Tips on keeping the yard and under-house area tidy
The vacuuming between visits matters more than most people expect. It picks up eggs and larvae, and the vibration pushes pupae to hatch. Empty the vacuum into an outside bin every time.
Your pets need their own flea plan from your vet, since we only book treatments for the home and yard. For bites on people, see a doctor. Call 07 3543 7772 to talk through a flea control plan for your New Farm home.
