How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog looks to be in some discomfort and is continually scratching or biting their fur. Is it a skin disease or could it be fleas feeding? But what do fleas look like? Before you take your pet to the vet, there are a couple of ways to check if you have fleas in the house:

• They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Next, check the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat since mostly that part is the flea’s favourite feeding and these are the areas that are targeted in which you might 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’s flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

The soonest you spot the infestation, the better you can eliminate these nasty fleas. Our certified technicians know exactly what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas and they have a maintenance solution to make the fleas not able to return again.

They understand the habits of different flea species and can offer the most appropriate and effective solution for your specific flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

Having pets at home is definitely fun most especially those with fluffy furs, but occasionally they can bring quite a bit of trouble. How? Well, we’re 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 problem in Australian homes, especially those with pets. You will discover a problem with fleas even if you don’t have pets, if previous owners of your house kept cats or dogs. Fleas can also be carried on other (especially hairy) 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 lead to skin allergies and swelling. Fleas bite may also transmit a surprising number of diseases due to the bacterial component they carry. These diseases might affect both your pet’s health and even yourself.

Adult fleas feed on mammal blood and may drink 15 instances their own weight each day. Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and some other organic debris that they could find in your home. You will regularly find fleas simply snuggled on your pet’s fur. Their eggs can also unfold in your entire property, infesting your bedding, furnishings, and flooring. Larvae frequently lurk deep inside the carpet material or within a convenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here is our to-do list to help you keep 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 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 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 take care of your pet.
