How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog seems to be in a couple of pains and is constantly scratching or biting their fur. Is it a skin disease or should it be fleas feeding? But what do fleas appear like? Before you’re taking your pet to the vet, there are a couple of approaches to check if you have fleas within the home:

• Can you see fleas crawling to your pet’s coat? They are commonly reddish-brown and approximately 2mm long.
• Assess the hindquarters of your puppy or the head and neck of your cat. These are the regions that are targeted and where you could see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully look at your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which resembles ground black pepper – use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to see small, black specks.
• There is flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

There are numerous reasons you can do to take away fleas in the event you spot the issue early enough.

If the fleas keep coming back, or you want to ensure complete elimination, just contact our experts. Our certified technicians know precisely what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas. They understand the customs of different flea species and may offer the most appropriate and effective solution for your particular flea issue.

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 1 area of your home and impose health risk to family members and pets.

Fleas are actually a common pest issue in Australian homes. Even those with pets, homeowners can still experience the nuisance of these pests. It is not only our cats and dogs that can harbor fleas but also other hairy creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the greatest concern about the presence of fleas in your house or business comes from their bites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an uncomfortable itch or reactive rash. Your pets may 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 every 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 whole 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 for pets and for us not a severe threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

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

Vacuum your surroundings 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 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 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 treat your pet.
