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

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

There are many reasons you can do to take away fleas in the event you spot the problem early enough.

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

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are adorable, they can bring very trouble most especially 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 one area of your house and impose health risk to family members and pets.

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

Their existence does not only trigger goosebumps but also the fear of being bitten by these pestering parasites. 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 drink 15 times their own weight per 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 whole 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 is our to-do list to help you maintain a flea-free home:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – 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 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 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 take care of your pet.
