Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, 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 start to nestle and strain, infesting more than one area of your home and impose health risk to household members and pets.

Fleas are in fact a common pest issue in Australian homes. Even those without 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 creatures like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as pigs.

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 ailments because of the bacterial component they take. These diseases might affect both your pet’s health as well as yourself.

The main meal of fleas is usually blood from mammals. Adult fleas feed on blood and can drink 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 not easy to dismiss fleas. Mostly, we see the tiny bloodsuckers as a nuisance to pets and for us not a serious threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do listing to help you keep a flea-free home:

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 accumulate in matters like carpets and rugs. 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 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 speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.
