Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite 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 breed, infesting more than 1 area of your home and impose health risk to family members and pets.

Fleas are among the most common pest problems that Australian homes encounter. Even those without pets can nevertheless experience pest infestation particularly if previous owners of your property 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 bites. Although these are not painful, its effects on your skin will lead to 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 and even yourself.

The main meal of fleas is usually blood from mammals. Adult fleas feed on blood and can drink 15 times their own weight per day. Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and any other organic debris that they can see in your property. 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 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 for 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 surroundings and out-of-reach areas – 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 adult flea feces and other organic matter, which collect in things like carpets and rugs. Eliminating 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 regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds each 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 treat your pet.
