Your cat or dog looks to be in some distress and might see them scratching their fur. This occurs if your pets are experiencing fleas infestation. They have these pest buried within their furs. However, what do fleas look like? It’s better to check your furry friend to the vet; hence, there are some of the findings you might check if you have fleas in the house:

• Can you see fleas crawling on your pet’s coat? They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Check the hindquarters of your puppy or the head and neck of your cat. These are the areas that are targeted and where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Assess the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat. These are the areas which are targeted and where you could see signs of flea activity.
• There’s flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

The soonest you spot the infestation, the better you can eliminate these nasty fleas. Our certified technicians know exactly what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas and they have a maintenance solution to generate the fleas not able to come back again.

They understand the customs of different flea species and can provide the most suitable and effective solution for your specific flea issue.

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 unknowingly inside their homes. After this pest gets inside, they begin to nestle and strain, infesting more than one area of your house and impose health risk to household members and pets.

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, especially 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) creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the presence of fleas is not the only concern but also as their snacks. Although these are not painful, its effects on your skin is going to result in skin allergies and swelling. Fleas bite can also transmit a surprising number of ailments because of the bacterial component they carry. These diseases might affect both your pet’s health and even yourself.

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 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 severe threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do listing to help you keep 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 adult flea feces and other organic matter, which collect in things 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 house 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 talk to your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to take care of your pet.

Frequently Asked Questions

My pets in the household will be affected by the treatment you use?

Your pet’s safety is very important to us. You may rest assured that any active component they might come into contact with, whether it is still wet or inhaling it or ingestion it, is a tiny amount.

Will the spray cause harm to humans?

The spray we apply is usually used in public places such as schools and hospitals and causes no ill effects to humans.

What do I do if I accidentally touch any of the areas sprayed?

It’s only an issue if the sprayed areas remain wet. Should this happen, wash with soap and plenty of water as quickly as you are able to. After a relatively short period of time, the water carrier tap water has been dissolved and will not cause any harm to you should you come into contact with the surface.
