Inspection and hotspot checks
We look for activity around floors, carpet edges, and areas where pets spend time, so the treatment targets the places most likely to hold fleas.
If you are seeing fleas jumping on carpets or around pet bedding, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help you identify where they are coming from and treat the areas most likely to harbour them in Dundas Valley.
Fleas are not just the ones you can see. Their life cycle includes eggs and larvae in carpets, rugs, and soft furnishings, so effective control depends on treating the right hotspots and following the prep and post-visit steps.
What flea control involves
Flea control focuses on breaking the flea life cycle in your home, not just killing the fleas you spot. After an inspection in Dundas Valley, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney treats the areas where fleas are most likely to be breeding, and you are given steps to reduce the chance of re-infestation.

You may notice small dark insects jumping when you walk past, especially near carpet edges and around pet baskets. Bites can also appear on ankles and exposed skin, and you may see dark flea dirt that looks like pepper on bedding or rugs.
What happens during a visit
Your flea control visit in Dundas Valley starts with an inspection so we can focus treatment where flea eggs and larvae are most likely to be present. You will be told what to do before we arrive, what to expect during treatment, and what to manage afterwards to reduce the chance of fleas returning.
We look for activity around floors, carpet edges, and areas where pets spend time, so the treatment targets the places most likely to hold fleas.
Before treatment, we provide instructions for managing children, pets, and household items in the areas being treated.
We apply treatment to the infested hotspots that match what we found during inspection, especially where eggs and larvae can be present.
After the visit, we advise how to handle floors and soft furnishings, including what to do with pet bedding, to limit re-exposure.
Fleas can look like a moving problem, but much of the life cycle is hidden in soft surfaces. These are the elements that make the treatment plan more effective.
We treat based on what we find, rather than only where fleas are spotted, which helps address the hidden stages.
Clear instructions help keep children and pets safe and ensure technicians can reach the areas that need treatment.
Simple actions for bedding and floors reduce the chance that eggs or larvae remain where fleas can restart the cycle.
Our inspection and advice are based on the signs of flea activity we see in your home and the service guidance provided for safe flea control.
