How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog appears to be in some discomfort and is constantly scratching or biting their fur. Is it a skin disease or could it be fleas feeding? But what do fleas look like? Before you take your pet to the vet, there are a couple of ways to check if you have fleas in the home:

• They are typically reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Next, check the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat because mostly that part is the flea’s favourite feeding and these are the areas that are targeted where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully examine your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which resembles ground black pepper – use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to see small, black specks.
• There is flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

Actually, there are many ways you can get rid of fleas as soon as you catch sight of them. But if they keep coming back, then that’s a sign you have to fully remove them through pet control services. Our certified technicians know just what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas.

They understand the customs of different flea species and can provide the most appropriate and effective solution for your specific flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

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

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You will 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 pigs.

As parasites, the largest issue with regard to the existence 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 can also create hypersensitive reactions 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, lost 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 may 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.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here is our to-do listing 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 accumulate in things like 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 house because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds weekly (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.
