Many homes in New Farm are old Queenslanders sitting up on stumps, with a dry, shady space underneath. Dogs love lying there on hot days, and cats often wander through. The loose dirt and dust under the house suit flea larvae well, and a big population can build up where nobody looks.
If your pet keeps coming inside with fleas even after the house has been treated, or you get bitten when you go under the house to use the laundry or storage, the space underneath is likely part of the problem. An under-house flea treatment deals with it directly.
When you call, tell us how high the space under the house is, whether it is dirt, concrete or a mix, and how the crew gets in. Some homes have full-height laundries and storage underneath, while others only have a low subfloor. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew at a time that suits you. The treatment usually covers these areas.
- Dirt and dust where pets lie
- Around stumps, stairs and lattice
- Laundry and storage areas under the house
- Entry points pets use to get underneath
- Any pet beds or mats stored down there
Before the visit, clear a path under the house if you can, and move stored boxes, bikes and junk away from the areas pets use. Wash or throw out old mats and bedding kept underneath. Keep pets out of the space while the crew works and until it has dried.
An under-house treatment is usually booked with an indoor treatment, since fleas move up into the home. Your pets need their own flea plan from your vet. Call 07 3543 7772 to book an under-house flea treatment in New Farm.
