How to spot signs and get rid of fleas

Your cat or dog appears to be in some discomfort and is constantly scratching or biting their fur. Is it a skin infection 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 house:

  • They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
  • Check the hindquarters of your puppy or the head and neck of your cat. These are the regions that are targeted and where you could see signs of flea activity.
  • In addition, in a careful manner, look in your pet’s skin for fine black shedding. This resembles ground black pepper. Moreover, you may use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper to see small, black specks.
  • There’s flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

The soonest you spot the infestation, the better you can get rid of these nasty fleas. Our certified technicians know just what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas and they have a maintenance solution to make the fleas not able to return again.

They understand the customs of different flea species and can provide the most suitable and effective solution for your particular flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite trouble most especially when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures kindly within their homes. After 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 among the most common pest problems that Australian homes encounter. Even people without pets can still experience pest infestation especially if previous owners of your property kept dogs or cats. Fleas can also be carried on other (especially hairy) animals like rabbits, rats, mice and livestock such as pigs. With or without pets, everyone is vulnerable to the disturbance caused by fleas.

As parasites, the biggest issue with regard to the presence of fleas in your home or business comes from their bites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an embarrassing itch or reactive rash. Your pets may also create hypersensitive reactions 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 they can find in your property. 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 not easy 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:

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 matters like carpets and rugs. Removing 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 living .

Groom your pets frequently 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 speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.

I have been using this business for pest control for number of years after having a number of other pest control companies failing to ensure unwanted inserts and spiders were not around our place. Local Pest Control seem to have the environmental toxic free products and satisfy the pest problem and it seems to last the year. Highly recommend this business would not consider another pest business. Valued customer.

Ben is an absolute gentleman. Extremely polite and courteous and was very thorough in his work. He even took the time to explain different aspects of his job and the various insects and how he gets rid of them. Absolute champion. Hoping this will be the start of a long relationship with Andrew and his Local Pest Control team. Cheers.

Extremely happy with the services provided, we had a very knowledgeable technician Sean came to attend to the possum issue in our townhouse, Sean found the openings where the possums came in on the roof right away and patched them up. When the previous pest control company failed to do. But being a two level building with a separated garage roof, it was very difficult to trap the possums still inside, but Andrew the boss and Sean kept trying and finally got the problem all solved. Friendly to talk to and easy to work with so Highly recommended.
