Problems With Fleas?

As adorable and cuddly pets can be, occasionally they can cause quite a lot of trouble without even knowing it. We talk, of course, about fleas. Together with your pets as a temporary ride, they will infest your home and reproduce in an astounding rate before you even receive your first bite.

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 is not only our dogs and cats that can harbor fleas but also other hairy creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

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 embarrassing itching or reactive rash. Your pets may also develop allergies to the flea saliva.

They are voracious blood drinkers and an adult flea can drink 15 times their own weight daily. On the other hand, 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 may also spread throughout your whole property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and flooring. larvae often lurk deep inside the carpet cloth or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do list 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 adult flea feces and other organic matter, which accumulate in things 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 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.
