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 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:

  • Can you see fleas crawling on your pet’s coat? 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 areas that are targeted and where you might see signs of flea activity.
  • Also, in a careful manner, look at your pet’s skin for nice black dropping. This resembles ground black pepper. Furthermore, 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 exactly what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas and they have a maintenance solution to make the fleas unable to come back again.

If the fleas return, or you want to ensure complete elimination, just contact our specialists. Our certified technicians know exactly what to do when it comes to getting rid of fleas. They understand the habits of different flea species and may offer the most appropriate and efficient solution for your specific flea issue.

Problems With Fleas?

As adorable and cuddly pets can be, sometimes they can cause quite a bit of trouble without even knowing it. We speak, of course, about fleas. Using your pets as a temporary ride, they will infest your house and reproduce in an astounding rate before you receive your first bite.

Fleas are actually a common pest issue in Australian homes. Even those with pets, homeowners can still experience the aggravation of these pests. It’s not only our dogs and cats that can harbor fleas but also other hairy animals like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as pigs.

Their existence does not only trigger goosebumps but as well 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 consume 15 times their own weight per day. Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and any other organic debris 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 within the carpet fabric or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices. It’s not easy 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 listing 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 get rid of adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and other organic matter, which accumulate in things like carpets and carpeting. Eliminating this source of food is a significant 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 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 speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. Local Pest Control is a reliable and effective company who I won’t hesitate to call again! Highly recommend.

Frequently Asked Questions

My pets in the household will be affected by the treatment you employ?

The safety of your pets is very important to us. You may rest assured that any active component they come in contact with, whether it’s still damp or by inhaling or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Does the spray pose problems to humans?

The spray we use is often employed in public areas such as schools and hospitals and has no adverse effects on humans.

What do I do if accidentally touch any of the areas that have been sprayed?

It’s only of concern if the spray areas are still wet. Should this happen, wash with soap and lots of water as soon as you possibly can. After a relatively short period duration, your water carrier, tap water will have been dissolved and won’t be harmful to you in any way should you come into contact with the area.
