Fleas usually turn up in homes with pets, but they can also arrive after moving into a new rental or through contact with an infested yard, and once they settle into carpet and soft furnishings they are hard to shift with vacuuming alone. Flea treatment across Fortitude Valley looks at carpets, rugs, pet bedding and the areas pets spend the most time, since that is where flea eggs and larvae tend to collect.
The crew we book will treat carpeted areas, skirting boards and any soft furniture pets regularly use, and will talk you through steps for your pet separately, since flea treatment for the home and flea treatment for an animal are two different things handled by different people. Homes across Fortitude Valley with yards often see fleas move in from outside, so outdoor areas near the house, particularly shaded garden beds and areas under decking, may also need attention alongside the indoor treatment.
Vacuuming thoroughly before the visit and washing pet bedding on a hot cycle helps the treatment work better, and the crew can talk you through timing so you are not undoing the work straight after it is done. A second look a couple of weeks later can help confirm the room is clear.
