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 infection 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 house:

• It is a flea when you see a reddish-brown and about 2mm long crawling on your pet’s coat.
• 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 which are targeted in which you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully have a look at your pet’s skin for pleasant black droppings which resembles ground black pepper – use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to seem small, black specks.
• There is flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

In fact, there are many ways you can get rid of fleas once you catch sight of them. However, if they keep coming back, then that is 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 habits of different flea species and can offer the most suitable and effective solution for your specific flea issue.

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 homes. After this pest gets inside, they begin to nestle and strain, infesting more than 1 area of your house and impose health risk to household members and pets.

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You will discover a problem with fleas even if you do not have pets, if previous owners of your house kept cats or dogs. Fleas can also be carried on other (especially hairy) creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as cows.

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 develop hypersensitive reactions to the flea saliva.

They’re voracious blood drinkers and an adult flea can drink 15 times their own weight per day. On the other hand, 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 snuggled in your pet’s fur. Their eggs may also spread throughout your entire property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and flooring. larvae often lurk deep inside the carpet cloth or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do listing 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 eliminate 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 carpeting. 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 frequently 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 speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.
