• Can you see fleas crawling on your pet’s coat? They are typically reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Assess the hindquarters of your puppy or the head and neck of your cat. These are the areas that are targeted and where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully examine your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which looks like ground black pepper – use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to see small, black specks.
• If there is a flea dirt on pet bedding carpets or rugs, there’s a possibility that your pet is experiencing flea feeding.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite trouble most especially when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures kindly within their homes. Once this pest gets inside, they begin to nestle and breed, infesting more than 1 area of your house and impose health risk to family members and pets.

Fleas are among the most common pest problems that Australian houses encounter. Even people without pets can still experience pest infestation particularly if previous owners of your house Kept dogs or cats. Fleas can also be carried on other (especially hairy) animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs. With or without pets, everyone is vulnerable on the disturbance caused by fleas.

As parasites, the greatest concern about the presence of fleas in your home or business comes from their bites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an uncomfortable itch or reactive rash. Your pets could also develop allergies to the flea saliva.

Adult fleas feed on mammal blood and can drink 15 times their own weight per day. Their larvae feed from pet or human dandruff, discarded hair, skin, and any other organic debris they can find in your property. You will often find fleas comfortably snuggled in your pet’s fur. Their eggs may also spread throughout your entire property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and floors. Larvae often lurk deep inside the carpet fabric or in handy hardwood flooring crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here is our to-do listing to help you keep a flea-free home:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – carpets, furnishings, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furniture. This will not only eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and other organic matter, which collect in things like carpets and carpeting. Removing this source of food is a significant step in breaking the flea life cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very carefully away from the house because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets frequently with a flea comb and wash their beds every week (ideally at 50°c or above).

If your pet is scratching or biting its fur you should speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.
