How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog looks to be in some distress and is continually scratching or biting their fur. Is it a skin disease or could it be fleas feeding? But what do fleas look like? Before you take your pet to the vet, there are a couple of ways to check if you have fleas in the home:

• It is a flea when you see a reddish-brown and about 2mm long crawling in your pet’s coat.
• Assess the hindquarters of your dog 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 look at 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 customs of different flea species and can provide the most appropriate and effective solution for your particular flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are adorable, they can bring quite trouble most notably when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures unknowingly inside their houses. After this pest gets inside, they start to nestle and breed, infesting more than 1 area of your home and impose health risk to family members and pets.

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, particularly those with pets. You will discover 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 existence of fleas in your house 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 drink 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 to pets and for us not a serious threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here is our to-do listing to help you keep a flea-free home:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – rugs, furniture, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furnishings. This will not only eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae, as well. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and different organic thing, which collects in things like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is a vital 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 regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds each 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.
