Fleas usually arrive in a Gold Coast home with a pet, then settle into carpet, rugs, pet bedding and the edges of rooms where pets spend most of their time. Bites around the ankles, a pet scratching more than normal or small dark specks in their bedding are common signs that numbers have built up.
When you call, we ask whether you have pets, where they sleep and rest, and which rooms are affected. The crew we book treats carpet, rugs, pet bedding and skirting boards, along with outdoor areas where pets spend time, since flea eggs and larvae can sit in these spots for weeks.
Because fleas can keep hatching for some time after a visit, Gold Coast homes with carpet throughout or pets that move between indoors and the yard sometimes need a second treatment a few weeks later to catch the next generation. The crew we book will tell you if this applies to your Gold Coast property. If you have more than one pet, mention this when you call, since it can change how many rooms need attention. Rooms with rugs or heavy soft furnishings sometimes need a closer look, so mention these when you call to help plan the visit properly.
