Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are adorable, they can bring very trouble most notably when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures unknowingly inside their houses.

Fleas are a common hassle in Australian Homes, especially those with pets. You may additionally discover a hassle with fleas, even should you not have pets if previous owners of your house had cats or dogs. Fleas can also be carried on various (particularly dairy) animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

Their presence does not only trigger goosebumps but also the fear of getting bitten by these pestering parasites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an embarrassing itching 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 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 entire 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 severe threat to anyone’s health.
