Indoor flea treatment is for homes where the fleas are clearly inside: bites on the legs while you watch TV, fleas on the bed covers, or specks jumping on the carpet when you walk through a room. It is a common booking in Caboolture townhouses and units, and in houses where the pets live mostly indoors. When you call, we ask how many rooms are affected and what flooring each one has, then give you upfront pricing. We also ask whether you rent or own, as some renters need to arrange access with their agent.
The crew we book works through the home room by room, paying extra attention to the places where fleas hide from light and foot traffic. These usually include:
- Carpet edges along walls and doorways
- Under beds, couches and cabinets
- Rugs, mats and the floor beneath them
- Gaps between floorboards and around skirting boards
- Wardrobe floors and hallway runners
- Spots where pets sleep or lie in the sun
Good prep makes a big difference. Vacuum every room on the day of the visit, including under furniture, and empty the vacuum outside. Move small items off the floor and wash bedding, cushion covers and pet blankets on a hot cycle. Plan for everyone, pets included, to be out of the home until the treated floors are dry.
After the visit, keep vacuuming daily for a week or two. It stirs up the pupae so they hatch and meet the treated surfaces. Leave treated floors unmopped for as long as the crew suggests. If the yard is also involved, ask about treating outside at the same time. Your pets need their own flea plan from your vet. Call 07 3543 7771 to book indoor flea treatment in Caboolture.
