Problems With Fleas?

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

Fleas are a common hassle in Australian Homes, particularly those with pets. You may additionally discover a hassle with fleas, even should you not have pets if previous owners of your home had cats or dogs. Fleas can also be performed on various (particularly dairy) animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the presence of fleas is not the sole concern but as well as their bites. Although these are not painful, its effects on your skin will result in skin allergies and swelling. Fleas bite may also transmit a surprising number of ailments due to the bacterial component they carry. 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 every day. 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 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 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 maintain 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 eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae. The larvae feed 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 really carefully away from the house 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.
