Problems With Fleas?

As cuddly and lovable pets may be, occasionally they can cause quite a tad bit trouble without you even knowing it. We certainly refer to fleas. Using your pets as a temporary ride they will infest your own house and reproduce at an astounding amount before you get your initial bite.

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

As parasites, the presence of fleas is not the sole concern but also as their snacks. Although these are not painful, its effects on your skin is going to result in skin allergies and swelling. Fleas bite may also transmit a surprising number of diseases because of the bacterial component they take. These diseases might affect both your pet’s health as well as yourself.

Adult fleas feed on mammal blood and can beverage 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 flooring. Larvae often lurk deep within the carpet fabric or in convenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do list to help you maintain a flea-free home:

Vacuum your surroundings and out-of-reach areas – rugs, 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 matters like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is an important step in breaking the flea life cycle.

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

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

If your pet is scratching or biting its fur you should talk to your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to take care of your pet.
