Sometimes you simply need the fleas dealt with. Flea treatment is a one-off visit for Manly homes where fleas have already taken hold, perhaps after a warm spell, a new pet, a house-sit or a visit from a friend's dog. The focus is on clearing the problem you have now, in one go, rather than setting up a longer plan. When you call, we ask about the rooms affected, your flooring and your pets, and give you upfront pricing.
The crew we book treats each room where fleas could be living, not only the ones where you noticed bites. Fleas move quickly through a home, so the visit usually includes:
- Every carpeted room, including wardrobe floors
- Rugs, mats and the floor underneath them
- Couches and chairs where pets sit
- Pet beds, laundries and back porches
- Floorboard gaps and skirting board edges
The prep is simple but it matters. Vacuum every floor on the day, empty the vacuum outside, and wash pet bedding and blankets on a hot cycle. Move clothes, toys and shoes off the floor so the crew can reach each corner. If you rent, check with your agent about access if needed. Plan to be out of the home with your pets until the floors are dry.
A few fleas may still appear for a week or two as the last pupae hatch, and daily vacuuming helps bring them out. If fleas are also in the yard or under the house, ask about adding those areas. If you would like to keep fleas away over the warmer months, ask about flea control instead. Your pets need their own flea plan from your vet. Call 07 3543 7770 to book flea treatment in Manly.
