Fleas around Mount Gravatt are almost always linked to a cat, dog or other pet, and can build up quickly in carpets, pet bedding and shaded parts of the yard once the weather warms up. Bites around the ankles, pets scratching more than usual and small dark specks in pet bedding are the usual signs, and an infestation can carry on indoors even after the weather cools if it is not treated properly.
The crew we book will treat carpets, rugs, pet bedding and skirting boards indoors along with shaded, sheltered parts of the yard where pets rest outdoors, since fleas lay eggs in these areas and a treatment that misses the yard often sees fleas reappear indoors within a few weeks. Vacuuming thoroughly before the visit, including under furniture and along skirting boards, helps remove eggs and larvae and gives the treatment a better chance of working.
Pets themselves need their own flea treatment from a vet alongside the home treatment, since a pest visit only deals with the house and yard, not the animal. Mount Gravatt homes with a lot of shaded yard space or a pet that spends time both indoors and out tend to need a broader outdoor treatment than a unit with a small courtyard.
