How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog seems to be in a few 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 few approaches to check if you have fleas within the home:

• They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Assess the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat. These are the regions that are targeted and where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully look at your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which looks like 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 case you spot the problem early enough.

If the fleas return, or you want to ensure complete removal, just contact our specialists. 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 can offer the most appropriate and efficient solution for your specific flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring very trouble most especially when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures unknowingly inside their houses. After this pest gets inside, they start to nestle and strain, infesting more than one 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 aggravation of these pests. It is not only our cats and dogs that can harbor fleas but also other hairy animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the greatest concern about the existence of fleas in your 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 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 see 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 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 are our certain ways to help you keep a flea-free house:

Vacuum your surroundings and out-of-reach areas – carpets, furnishings, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furniture. This will not only eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae. The larvae feed adult flea feces and other organic matter, which collect 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 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 talk to 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 security of your pet is extremely important to us. We can assure you that any active component they may come into contact with, whether it’s still wet or through inhalation or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Does the spray pose problems to humans?

The spray we use is often utilized in public spaces such as hospitals and schools and has no adverse effects to human beings.

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

This will only be of concern if the spray areas are still wet. If this occurs, clean with soap and lots of water as quickly as you can. After a relatively short period of time, the carrier tap water has gone out of the water and won’t be harmful to you in any way should you come into contact with the area.
