Fleas are a common hassle in Australian Homes, particularly those with pets. You may additionally discover a hassle with fleas, even should you not have pets if previous owners of your home had cats or dogs.

Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and any other organic debris 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 inside 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.

Empty your vacuum cleaner attentively away from the home because the fleas will nonetheless still be living.

Groom your pets regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds each week (ideally at 50°c or above).
