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. After this pest gets inside, they begin to nestle and breed, infesting more than one area of your house and impose health risk to family members and pets.

Fleas are in fact a common pest issue in Australian homes. Even those with pets, homeowners can still experience the aggravation of these pests. It’s not only our cats and dogs that can harbor fleas but also other hairy animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

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 embarrassing itching or reactive rash. Your pets may 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 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 inside the carpet fabric or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices. It’s difficult to dismiss fleas. Mostly, we see the tiny bloodsuckers as a nuisance to pets and for us not a severe threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here is our to-do list to help you keep 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 like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is a significant step in breaking the flea life cycle.

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

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

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