Problems With Fleas?

As cuddly and lovable pets may be, occasionally they can cause quite a bit of trouble without you even knowing it. We certainly refer to fleas. Using your pets as a temporary ride they will infest your own house and reproduce at an astounding amount before you get your initial bite.

Fleas are a common problem in Australian homes, especially those with pets. You may detect a problem with fleas even if you do not 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 cows.

As parasites, the presence of fleas is not the sole concern but as well as their bites. Although these are not painful, its effects on your skin will result in skin allergies and swelling. Fleas bite can also transmit a surprising number of diseases due to the bacterial component they take. 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 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 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 is our to-do list to help you maintain a flea-free home:

Vacuum your environment and out-of-reach areas – rugs, 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 accumulate in matters like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is an important step in breaking the flea life cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very 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 ought to talk for your vet. They can propose the best flea sprays or powders to use to deal with your pet.
