Fleas usually arrive in a Logan Central home by way of a pet, but they can also hitch a ride in on secondhand furniture or after a house has been empty for a while, and numbers can build up quickly in carpet, rugs and pet bedding once they take hold. Bites around the ankles, a pet scratching more than usual, or small dark specks in carpet are the usual signs, and warmer, humid weeks tend to bring more calls. Call 07 3543 7771 and tell us what you have noticed.
The crew we book will treat carpets, rugs, skirting boards and any areas pets spend time in, including bedding and favourite resting spots, since flea eggs and larvae settle into these areas long before adult fleas are seen moving around. Outdoor areas under the house or in shaded parts of the yard where pets rest are checked too, as fleas can settle outside as easily as inside a Logan Central home. Lounge areas and pet beds in particular are worth pointing out to the crew before they start.
Vacuuming well before the visit and keeping pets away from the treated areas until they have dried helps the treatment do its job properly. It is also worth speaking with a vet about your pet's own flea routine, since treating the house without treating the animal often means fleas return within a few weeks. The crew will talk you through timing and any preparation needed when you call to book, along with a price before work starts.
