Flea Control

Ensuring a Flea-Free Home for Your Family and Pets

Fleas are a persistent pest issue in Australia, impacting both residential and commercial spaces. These tiny parasites thrive in warm, humid environments and can quickly become a nuisance, particularly in homes with pets. Fleas are notorious for their ability to spread rapidly, infesting carpets, furniture, and bedding. Their presence can lead to significant discomfort, health issues, and hygiene problems. Effective flea control is crucial to safeguarding your living environment and maintaining the well-being of your family and pets.

Understanding the Risks of Flea Infestations

• Health Risks: Fleas can transmit diseases and parasites like tapeworms and cause allergic reactions in both humans and pets.
• Itchy Bites: Flea bites cause intense itching and discomfort, leading to potential secondary infections from scratching.
• Pet Distress: Infestations can cause severe discomfort and health issues in pets, including anemia in severe cases.
• Reproductive Challenges: Fleas reproduce rapidly, leading to extensive infestations if not managed promptly.
• Hygiene Issues: Flea infestations can compromise home cleanliness and hygiene, as fleas leave behind fecal matter and eggs.

Fleas That Are Found in Your Property or Home

• Home: Fleas commonly infest carpets, upholstery, and bedding, often coming from pets or wildlife.
• Cats: Cats are frequent hosts for fleas, which can quickly spread to their environment.
• Dogs: Similar to cats, dogs can carry fleas and bring them into the home, leading to infestations.
• Office: While less common, fleas can also be a problem in offices, particularly if pets are present or if there’s an infestation nearby

Spotting Flea Bites: How to Identify and Address Them

• Red Spots: Flea bites often appear as small, red, itchy spots, commonly found on legs and ankles.
• Bite Clusters: Multiple bites in a row or clusters, usually grouped together in areas of exposed skin.
• Itching and Swelling: Severe itching and swelling around the bite area are common reactions to flea bites.
• Visible Fleas: Finding fleas on your skin or in your pet’s fur can confirm an infestation.
• Bite Patterns: Bites are often in lines or clusters and can be found on areas where clothing doesn’t cover.
