Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite 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 one area of your house and impose health risk to household members and pets.

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

The main meal of fleas is usually blood from mammals. Adult fleas feed on blood and can drink 15 times their own weight every day. Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and any other organic debris that they can find 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 fabric or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices. It’s not easy to dismiss fleas. Mostly, we see the tiny bloodsuckers as a nuisance for pets and for us not a serious threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

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

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

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

Groom your pets often with a flea comb and wash their beds each week (preferably 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.
