How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Fleas are small wingless jumping insect which feeds on the blood of dogs or cats. It sometimes transmits disease through its bite, including plague and myxomatosis. When a flea jumps onto your pet, it will start feeding in 5 minutes and might suck blood for up to 2 and 1/2 hours. There are tips and monitoring we should do on how to spot signs if your pet experiencing suffering from fleas and how to eliminate these. Here are a couple of ways to check if you have fleas in home or your pets have one:

• It’s a flea when you see a reddish-brown and about 2mm long crawling on your pet’s coat.
• 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.
• Carefully take a look at your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which looks like ground black pepper – utilise a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to seem small, black specks.
• If there is a flea dirt on pet bedding carpets or rugs, there is a possibility that your pet is experiencing flea feeding.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite trouble most especially when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures kindly within their homes. After this pest gets inside, they start to nestle and strain, infesting more than one 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 detect a problem with fleas even if you don’t have pets, if previous owners of your house kept cats or dogs. Fleas may also be carried on other (especially hairy) creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as cows.

As parasites, the greatest concern about the existence of fleas in your home or business comes from their snacks. 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 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 is our to-do list to help you maintain a flea-free home:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – carpets, 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. Removing this source of food is a significant step in breaking the flea life cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very carefully away from the house because the fleas will still be living .

Groom your pets often with a flea comb and wash their beds every week (preferably 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are my pets at home affected by the products you use?

The security of your pet is a top priority for us. You can rest assured that any active component they come in contact with, either when it’s still wet or through inhalation or ingesting it, is a tiny amount.

Will the spray cause human health issues?

The spray we employ is typically employed in public areas like schools and hospitals and causes no ill effects on humans.

What do I do if happen to touch one of the areas that have been spray?

This is only a concern if the sprayed areas are still damp. Should this happen, wash with soap and plenty of water as soon as you possibly can. After a relatively short period in time carrier, tap water will have evaporated and will not harm you in any way when you come in contact with the surface.
