How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog seems to be in some discomfort and may see them scratching their fur. This occurs when your pets are experiencing fleas infestation. They have these pest buried in their furs. But what do fleas look like? It’s better to check your pet to the vet; hence, there are a few of the findings you may check if you have fleas in the home:

• They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Next, check the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat because largely that part is the flea favourite feeding and these are the regions that are targeted in which you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully have a look at your pet’s skin for pleasant black droppings which looks like ground black pepper – use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to seem small, black specks.
• There’s flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

Actually, there are many ways you can get rid of fleas once you catch sight of them. However, if they keep coming back, then that is a sign you have to completely remove them through pet control services. Our certified technicians know exactly what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas.

Our certified technicians identify exactly what to do in terms of eliminating fleas. They understand various flea species and can provide the best suitable and strong solution on your certain flea problem.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite trouble most notably when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures kindly within their homes. Once this pest gets inside, they start to nestle and strain, infesting more than 1 area of your home and impose health risk to household members and pets.

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You will discover a problem with fleas even if you don’t have pets, if previous owners of your property 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 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 per day. 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 entire 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 serious threat to anyone’s health.

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 collect in matters like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is a significant 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 regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds weekly (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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my household pets be affected by the treatment you use?

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

What do I do if accidently touch any of the areas that have been treated with a spray?

This is only an issue if the sprayed areas are still wet. Should this happen, wash with soap and plenty of water as soon as you possibly can. In a short amount of time, the carrier, tap water will have been dissolved and will not harm you in any way should you come into contact with the surface.
