Why Sydney Homes Choose Redback for Flea Control

Fleas explode quickly because every adult flea you see represents about 95% more eggs, larvae and pupae hiding in carpets, bedding and yard. A single insecticide spray won't fix that — you need a product combination that kills adults on contact AND an insect growth regulator (IGR) that stops the next generation maturing. We treat the inside of the home, the pet's bedding zones, and the worst-affected outdoor areas in one visit.

Every treatment is delivered by a fully licensed, NSW EPA-registered Redback technician — never a subcontractor. We've been protecting Sydney homes and businesses for over 30 years and carry $20M public liability cover.

Booking is easy: get a fixed written price up front, choose a time that suits you (including Saturdays), and receive a digital service report with everything we used, treated and recommend. Same-week service is standard across Sydney, the Central Coast and Wollongong.

✓Itchy bites around ankles & lower legs
✓Pets scratching, biting or licking constantly
✓Tiny black 'pepper' specks (flea dirt) on pet bedding
✓Fleas jumping when you walk across carpet
✓Activity worse after returning from holiday

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a flea treatment take?

Most residential flea treatments take 45–90 minutes depending on the size of the home and the level of activity. We'll confirm the timing when we book the job.

Is the treatment safe for kids and pets?

Yes. We use only APVMA-registered, low-toxicity products applied by licensed technicians. Treated areas are typically safe to re-enter once dry — usually within 1–2 hours.

Will I see dead fleas after the treatment?

It's normal to see increased activity for the first 7–14 days as the product flushes them out of harbourage. After that, activity drops off sharply.

Do you offer a warranty?

Flea treatments include a 3-month warranty when the homeowner follows the post-treatment vacuuming and pet-care advice provided.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. Quotes are fixed in advance, with no hidden call-out or travel fees across Sydney metro, Central Coast and Wollongong.
