Problems With Fleas?

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

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You may detect 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.

Their presence does not only trigger goosebumps but also the fear of being bitten by these pestering parasites. 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.

They’re voracious blood drinkers and an adult flea can drink 15 times their own weight daily. On the other hand, their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded hair, skin, and any other organic debris they can see in your premises. You will often find fleas comfortably snuggled in your pet’s fur. Their eggs can also spread throughout your whole property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and flooring. larvae often lurk deep inside the carpet cloth or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

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

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

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

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

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