A big share of the homes in New Farm are units and apartments, from post-war walk-ups to newer blocks by the river. Fleas are just as common in units as in houses, often because a dog picks them up on a walk through New Farm Park and brings them home. With less floor space, a few fleas can turn into a lot very quickly.
A unit flea treatment is sized for a smaller home. The crew we book treats every room with carpet or rugs, the gaps under skirting boards, the places your pet sleeps and any balcony or courtyard. When you call, tell us how many bedrooms there are, what flooring you have and whether there is a lift or a walk-up. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a time that suits you.
A unit visit usually covers these areas.
- Carpet and rugs in every room
- Under beds, couches and entertainment units
- Pet beds and the floor around them
- Balconies, courtyards and planter boxes
- Entry, laundry and car space if pets use them
Before the visit, vacuum all floors and empty the vacuum into an outside bin. Wash pet bedding and throw rugs on a hot wash. Pick up everything from the floor. Check with your building manager about visitor parking and access if needed, and let us have those details when you book.
If you rent, you may want to tell your property manager about the visit. Keep people and pets out of treated rooms until the floors are dry, and keep vacuuming daily for two weeks. Your pets need their own flea plan from your vet. Call 07 3543 7772 to book a unit flea treatment in New Farm.
