Fleas arrive on a dog or cat and breed in the carpet, between floorboards, in pet bedding and in shaded parts of the yard. Elite's flea treatment covers the rooms where they are and the outside areas the pet uses, from $88 per room.
Elite provides specialist cleaning and restoration for the BMS National Rugby Training Centre at Ballymore as a valued partner of Queensland Rugby Union.
The technician treats carpets, rugs, floor edges, under furniture, pet bedding areas and the shaded outdoor spots where the pet lies. The product deals with adult fleas and stops the eggs and larvae in the carpet from developing, which is why a flea job is priced above a general treatment.
Before the visit
Vacuum every carpet and rug thoroughly and empty the vacuum outside.
Wash pet bedding on a hot cycle.
Treat the pet with a vet-approved flea product on the same day, or the fleas come straight back.
Clear the floors so the technician can reach the edges and under the furniture.
Rentals between tenants
A flea problem left by the last tenant's pet is one of the most common end of lease jobs we do. Many leases require a flea treatment when a pet has lived at the property; we provide written confirmation for the property manager. See end of lease pest control.
What it costs
Prices are per room, for an internal and external treatment:
General pest, for cockroaches, silverfish and spiders: from $77 per room
Flea treatment: from $88 per room
Ant treatment: from $88 per room
The total follows how many rooms are treated and which pest it is, so a unit kitchen and bathroom costs far less than a whole house.
Who comes to the door
Police-checked, fully insured technicians and a satisfaction guarantee on every job. Elite is CM3 certified, carries $20 million in public and products liability cover, and the Elite brand has been operating since 1984 from its head office in Acacia Ridge.
Flea questions
Why am I still seeing fleas a week later?
Pupae in the carpet can hatch for up to two weeks after treatment and die on contact with the treated surface. Keep vacuuming; it brings them out faster.
Do you treat the pet?
No. Treat the animal through your vet on the same day as the house.
Is the yard included?
The shaded outdoor areas the pet uses are. Open sunny lawn is not, because fleas do not survive there.
