Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring very trouble most especially when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures unknowingly inside their homes. After this pest gets inside, they start to nestle and strain, infesting more than 1 area of your home and impose health risk to household members and pets.

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

As parasites, the biggest issue with regard to the presence of fleas in your own home or business comes from their bites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an embarrassing itch or reactive rash. Your pets can also create hypersensitive reactions to the flea saliva.

The main meal of fleas is usually blood from mammals. Adult fleas feed on blood and can consume 15 times their own weight per day. Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, 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 can also spread throughout your entire property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and flooring. Larvae often lurk deep within the carpet fabric or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices. It’s not easy to dismiss fleas. Mostly, we see the tiny bloodsuckers as a nuisance to pets and for us not a serious threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

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

Vacuum your environment 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.

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

Groom your pets regularly 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 ought to talk for your vet. They can suggest the best flea sprays or powders to use to deal with your pet.
