How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog appears 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 regions that are targeted and where you could see signs of flea activity.
• Also, in a careful manner, look at your pet’s skin for nice black shedding. This looks like ground black pepper. Furthermore, you may use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper to see small, black specks.
• If there is a flea dirt on pet bedding carpets or rugs, there’s a possibility that your pet is undergoing flea feeding.

Problems With Fleas?

As cuddly and adorable 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 in an astounding amount before you get your initial bite.

Fleas are actually a common pest problem in Australian homes. Even those without pets, homeowners can still experience the aggravation of these pests. It is not only our cats and dogs that can harbor fleas but also other hairy animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs.

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 may also transmit a surprising number of diseases because of 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 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 they can see 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’s our to-do list to help you keep a flea-free home:

Vacuum your surroundings 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. 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 every week (ideally 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 treat your pet.
