How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog looks to be in some discomfort and might see them scratching their fur. This happens if your pets are experiencing fleas infestation. They have these pest buried within 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 might check if you have fleas in the house:

• They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Assess 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.
• Carefully examine your pet’s skin for fine black droppings which resembles 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 several things you can do to get rid of fleas if you catch the problem early enough.

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

Problems With Fleas?

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

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You may detect a problem with fleas even if you do not have pets, if previous owners of your house kept cats or dogs. Fleas may also be carried on other (especially hairy) creatures like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the greatest concern about the presence of fleas in your home or business comes from their snacks. Although these are not painful, they can result in an uncomfortable itch or reactive rash. Your pets could 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 find in your premises. 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 to pets and for us not a serious threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do list to help you keep a flea-free home:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – carpets, furniture, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furnishings. This won’t only eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae, as well. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and different organic matter, which collects in things like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is a crucial step in breaking the flea lifestyle cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very carefully away from the home because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets often with a flea comb and wash their beds every week (preferably 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.
