How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog appears to be in a few pains and is constantly scratching or biting their fur. Is it a skin disease or if it be fleas feeding? But what do fleas appear like? Before you are taking your pet to the vet, there are a few approaches to check if you have fleas within the home:

• Can you see fleas crawling to your pet’s coat? They’re commonly reddish-brown and approximately 2mm long.
• Check the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat. These are the areas that are targeted and where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully take a look at your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which resembles ground black pepper – utilise a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to seem small, black specks.
• There’s flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

In fact, there are many ways you can get rid of fleas as soon as you catch sight of them. However, 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 habits of different flea species and can provide the most appropriate and effective solution for your specific flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

As cuddly and adorable pets may be, occasionally they can cause quite a bit of trouble without you even knowing it. We certainly refer to fleas. Using your pets as a temporary ride they will infest your own house and reproduce at an astounding amount before you get your first bite.

Fleas are one of the most common pest problems that Australian houses encounter. Even people without pets can still experience pest infestation especially when previous owners of your house kept dogs or cats. Fleas may 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 as well as their snacks. Although these are not painful, its effects on your skin will lead to skin allergies and swelling. Fleas bite can 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 consume 15 times their own weight per 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 serious threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here are our certain ways to help you keep a flea-free house:

Vacuum your environment and out-of-reach areas – rugs, 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 matters 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 frequently 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 talk to your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my household pets be affected by the treatments you employ?

Your pet’s safety is extremely important to us. You may rest assured that any active component they might come into contact with, either when it is still wet or by inhaling or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Does the spray pose harm to humans?

The spray we use is often employed in public areas such as schools and hospitals and has no adverse effects to human beings.

What do I do if I accidently touch any of the areas that have been spray?

This is only an issue if the sprayed areas remain wet. If this happens, wash with soap and lots of water as fast as you are able to. After a relatively short period of time, the carrier tap water has been dissolved and will not be harmful to you in any way should you come into contact with the region.
