Flea calls around Burleigh Heads usually come from homes with pets, though fleas can arrive with a new pet, a visiting animal or on clothing after a walk somewhere fleas are active. Carpets, pet bedding and shaded spots in the yard where a pet rests need the most attention.
The crew we book for a flea job treats carpets, rugs and soft furnishings inside, then works through the yard, focusing on shaded areas under decking, along fence lines and anywhere a pet spends time outdoors. Units in Burleigh Heads without a yard usually need carpets, pet bedding and any balcony area checked instead.
Because fleas go through several life stages, one visit does not always clear a problem that has taken hold straight away.
If more than one pet lives in the home, all of them usually need attention at the same time, even if only one seems affected, since fleas move freely between animals sharing the same house and yard. Vacuuming carpets, rugs and upholstered furniture before the crew arrives, then again a few days after, helps remove flea eggs a single visit alone may not reach straight away. Mention if a visiting animal may have brought fleas into the home.
Yards with shaded, sandy or leaf-littered patches under trees or decking tend to hold flea eggs and larvae longer than open, sunny lawn, since fleas prefer cooler, sheltered ground to develop in. Raking up leaf litter and keeping garden beds trimmed back from areas your pet uses regularly gives the outdoor treatment a better chance of holding between visits.
