How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Fleas are small wingless jumping insect that feeds on the blood of dogs or cats. It sometimes transmits disease through its bite, including plague and myxomatosis. If a flea jumps on your pet, it will start feeding in 5 minutes and may suck blood for up to 2 and 1/2 hours. There are tips and monitoring we should do on how to identify signs if your pet experiencing discomfort from fleas and how to get rid of 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 in your pet’s coat.
• Check the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat. These are the regions that are targeted and where you could see signs of flea activity.
• Also, in a cautious manner, look at your pet’s skin for fine black shedding. This resembles ground black pepper. Furthermore, you may use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper to see small, black specks.
• If there is a flea dirt on pet bedding carpets or rugs, there’s a risk that your pet is undergoing flea feeding.

There are several things you can do to eliminate fleas if you catch the problem early enough.

If the fleas return, or you want to ensure complete removal, just contact our experts. Our certified technicians know exactly 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 specific flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

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

Fleas are among the most common pest problems that Australian homes encounter. Even those without pets can still experience pest infestation particularly when previous owners of your house kept dogs or cats. Fleas may also be carried on other (especially hairy) animals like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as pigs. With or without pets, everyone is vulnerable to the disturbance caused by fleas.

As parasites, the largest issue with regard to the presence of fleas in your own home 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 hypersensitive reactions to the flea saliva.

Adult fleas feed on mammal blood and can drink 15 times their own weight daily. Their larvae feed from human or pet dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and some 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 inside the carpet fabric or in handy hardwood flooring crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

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

Vacuum your environment and out-of-reach areas – 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 an important step in breaking the flea life cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner really carefully away from the home because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets frequently with a flea comb and wash their beds each 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

Will my household pets be affected by the products you employ?

The security of your pet is very important to us. You can rest assured that any active component they may come into contact with, either when it is still wet or inhaling it or ingestion it, is a tiny amount.

Will the spray cause problems to humans?

The spray we apply is usually employed in public areas such as schools and hospitals and has no adverse effects to humans.

What should I do if I accidentally touch any of the areas treated with a spray?

It’s only a concern if the sprayed areas remain wet. If this happens, wash with soap and plenty of water as quickly as you possibly can. After a brief period duration, your water carrier tap water has been dissolved and won’t harm you in any way when you come in contact with the surface.
