Check the source and hotspots
We assess where fleas are most likely present, such as carpets, rugs, floor edges, and pet bedding areas, based on what you have noticed.
If you are seeing fleas jumping on pets or finding bites on ankles, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help identify the source and treat where fleas live and breed.

You might see small dark insects moving quickly, or notice fleas jumping off pet bedding when you disturb it. Bites on ankles and lower legs, plus flea dirt on carpets or near skirting, are also common signs.
How we handle flea control
A flea control visit starts with inspecting likely harbourage around where pets rest and where humans sit or sleep. Then we treat the identified areas and provide preparation and aftercare steps to help break the flea cycle.
We assess where fleas are most likely present, such as carpets, rugs, floor edges, and pet bedding areas, based on what you have noticed.

You should follow the preparation instructions provided for your visit, particularly around where pets can move during treatment. This often includes planning access to treated areas so pets are not exposed while work is happening.
Yes, part of effective flea control is handling items that fleas use, such as pet bedding and other soft surfaces where your pet rests. Your technician will give specific aftercare steps for what to clean and how to manage it after treatment.
Fleas can have life stages in carpets and floor edges that are not immediately obvious, so the goal is to interrupt the cycle through targeted treatment and aftercare. The guidance you receive for cleaning routines and pet management is important for preventing a restart.
Fleas commonly move through the home via pets and contaminated resting spots, such as rugs, carpeted areas, and skirting edges. Treating the hotspots connected to your pet’s activity helps address that spread.
