Problems With Fleas?

Having pets at home is surely fun most especially those with fluffy furs, but sometimes they could bring quite a bit of trouble. How? Well, we are talking about them getting fleas. Sometimes, it cannot be prevented our fur pets can acquire pests that they unknowingly bring inside our dwelling. Once this creepy crawler gets inside, they infest and reproduce at a faster rate and eventually invade our humble abode.

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You will discover a problem with fleas even if you do not have pets, if previous owners of your property kept cats or dogs. Fleas can also be carried on other (especially hairy) creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as cows.

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

Adult fleas feed on mammal blood and can drink 15 times their own weight daily. Their larvae feed from human or pet dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and some other organic debris that 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 handy hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s 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 accumulate in things like carpets and carpeting. Eliminating this source of food is an important 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 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 should speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to take care of your pet.
