Most fleas in a home live indoors, and not on the pet. They are eggs, larvae and pupae scattered through carpet, rugs, pet beds and the gaps between floorboards. An indoor flea treatment in New Farm goes after those hiding spots room by room, so the fleas that hatch next week land in a treated home.
When you call, tell us how many rooms there are, what flooring each one has and where your pets sleep. Carpet, timber boards, tiles and rugs each need a slightly different approach. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew at a time that suits you.
The crew we book focuses on the places young fleas hide, which are usually dark, still and close to where pets rest.
- Carpet edges and the gap under skirting boards
- Under beds, couches and cabinets
- Gaps between timber floorboards
- Rugs, mats and pet beds
- Laundry, entry and car spaces the pets use
Before the visit, vacuum every floor, under the furniture and along the skirting boards. Empty the vacuum into an outside bin straight away. Wash pet bedding, throw rugs and cushion covers on a hot wash and dry them in the sun or a hot dryer. Pick up anything on the floor, and move pet food and water bowls out of the way.
Keep people and pets out of treated rooms until the crew says the floors are dry. You may still see a few fleas for a week or two as pupae hatch, so keep vacuuming daily. Your pets need their own flea plan from your vet. Call 07 3543 7772 to book an indoor flea treatment in New Farm.
