• Can you spot fleas crawling to your pet’s coat? They’re commonly reddish-brown and approximately 2mm long.
• Assess the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat. These are the regions that are targeted and where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Check the hindquarters of your puppy or the head and neck of your cat. These are the areas which are targeted and where you could see signs of flea activity.
• If there is a flea dirt on pet bedding carpets or rugs, there is a possibility that your pet is undergoing flea feeding.

The soonest you spot the infestation, the better you can eliminate these nasty fleas. Our certified technicians know exactly what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas and they have a maintenance solution to make the fleas not able to come back again.

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?

Having pets at home is definitely fun most especially those with fluffy furs, but occasionally they could bring quite a bit of trouble. How? Well, we’re talking about them getting fleas. Sometimes, it cannot be prevented our fur pets can get pests that they unknowingly bring inside our dwelling. Once this creepy crawler gets inside, they infest and reproduce at a faster speed and eventually invade our humble abode.

Fleas are one of the most common pest problems that Australian houses encounter. Even people without pets can still experience pest infestation particularly if previous owners of your house kept cats or dogs. Fleas can also be carried on other (especially hairy) animals like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as cows. With or without pets, everyone is vulnerable on the disturbance caused by fleas.

Their existence 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 uncomfortable itch 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 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 that they can find in your property. 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 within 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 listing to help you maintain a flea-free home:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – rugs, furniture, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furnishings. This won’t only eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae, also. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and different organic matter, which collects in things like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is a vital step in breaking the flea lifestyle cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very carefully away from the home because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets regularly 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 speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to take care of your pet.
