If you notice your pets scratching and grooming themselves more than usual, or you’re noticing small red bites on your own legs and ankles, you’re likely dealing with fleas.
When it comes to fleas, what you see is only a fraction of the problem. An adult flea lays up to 8 eggs every time it feeds, and those eggs fall off as your pet moves around the house, working their way into carpet fibres, bedding, floorboard gaps, and furniture. That’s why over-the-counter flea products seem to work at first, then the fleas come back within a few weeks. You’ve treated the adults, but not the next generation.
A professional flea treatment is designed to break that cycle by targeting fleas at every stage: adult, larvae, and egg.
Our flea treatments are designed to get on top of the problem. We treat the entire interior of your home, including carpeted areas, rugs, skirting boards, and other areas where eggs and larvae accumulate, as well as the exterior areas like lawns and garden beds where fleas can live and re-enter your home.
Treatment takes roughly 3–4 hours, during which time you and your pets will need to be out of the home. Once the treatment has dried completely, it’s safe to return.
You may notice some fleas reappearing in the 10 days following treatment — this is normal and expected, as eggs already present continue to hatch. In most cases, these will die on contact with the treated surfaces. If you’re seeing fleas well beyond that window, get in touch so we can come back and take a look.

I had Malcom come over to do an interior and exterior pest spray and I have to say it was such a pleasant experience. He started out by telling me exactly what he needed to do to get the job done, and very politely asked if I could close all the windows. After he was done outside, he did the inside and we had a great chat while he did his work. 10/10 customer experience. Would highly recommend if you need trusting, extremely professional pest control.Posted on Google Lynn LawlessTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Brilliant service! Kylie was so lovely booking us in and emailing and texting through all the details straight after our booking phone call. We were able to request the specific services we needed. They even send email and text reminders and then text you on the day when the technician is on their way to your home. Mark came and out and explained everything to us and even told us all about breeding cycles and habits of the little critters🪳.
He was so easy to have around to house and I felt completely at ease having him there. We would highly recommend Pete’s pest control and we will certainly be using them annually ourselves going forward.
