Many homes around Caboolture deal with fleas and ticks at the same time. Fleas build up inside and in shady yard spots, while ticks wait in long grass and leaf litter along the edges of the block. Both are most active in the warmer months, from spring through to autumn. A combined flea and tick treatment deals with both in one visit, which saves you booking two separate jobs.
When you call, we ask where you have seen fleas, whether you have found ticks on your pets, and what the yard and nearby bush look like. You get upfront pricing on the phone, then we book a nearby independent crew. A combined visit usually covers:
- Carpets, rugs, floor gaps and pet beds inside
- The ground under a highset home or deck
- Shady yard spots where pets lie
- Lawn edges, fence lines and leaf litter for ticks
- Kennels, pet runs and sheds
To prepare, vacuum every floor and empty the vacuum outside, then wash pet bedding on a hot cycle. Outside, mow the lawn and rake up leaf litter a day or two before the visit. Pick up toys and bowls, and make sure the crew can reach the back of the yard. Tell us about any locked gates or dogs that need to be kept away while the crew works. Keep people and pets away from treated areas until they are dry.
This treatment suits acreage and bush-edge blocks where pets move between the house and the scrub every day. Your pets need their own flea and tick plan from your vet, and if you have health worries, please see a doctor. Call 07 3543 7771 to book flea and tick treatment in Caboolture.
