Problems With Fleas?

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

Fleas are in fact a common pest issue in Australian homes. Even those without pets, homeowners can still experience the aggravation of these pests. It’s not only our dogs and cats that can harbor fleas but also other hairy creatures like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the biggest 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 create hypersensitive reactions to the flea saliva.

Adult fleas feed on mammal blood and can beverage 15 times their own weight daily. Their larvae feed from human or pet dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and some other organic debris they can find in your property. You will often find fleas comfortably snuggled in your pet’s fur. Their eggs may also spread throughout your entire property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and floors. Larvae often lurk deep within the carpet fabric or in handy hardwood flooring crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do listing 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 matters such as 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 home because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets frequently 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.
