Inspection and risk checks
We look for where fleas are likely to be coming from, including high-traffic areas for pets and sheltered spots where eggs and larvae can develop.
If you are seeing fleas jumping on pets or biting indoors, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help you break the cycle with targeted flea control.
Fleas do not just live on your pet. They breed in carpets, soft furnishings, bedding, and sheltered areas around the home and yard.
What this service covers
Flea control is not one spray and done. 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney combines inspection with targeted treatment of likely flea harbourage areas, then provides after-care steps to help prevent fleas returning once the infestation is disrupted. For full details, see the service page.
You may see small dark insects moving quickly when you disturb a pet's bedding or sit on a carpet. In some homes, bites appear on ankles and lower legs, and pets may scratch or groom more than usual.
What to expect
A flea issue usually comes with several hiding places, so the visit focuses on locating flea activity and reducing breeding sites. If you want the most effective outcome, follow the prep steps before the technician arrives and the after-care guidance once treatment is completed.

Yes. Clearing access to treated areas and following any preparation instructions helps the technician apply treatment where fleas are most likely to hide. If you are unsure what to do, ask for the pre-visit guidance before the appointment.
After-care steps are important because fleas can remain in sheltered household areas as the life cycle runs its course. Follow the guidance provided with your service, including steps that support household and pet routines during recovery.
