After this pest gets inside, they start to nestle and breed, infesting more than one area of your house and impose health risk to household members and pets.

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

As parasites, the largest issue with regard to the existence of fleas in your own home or business comes from their bites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an uncomfortable 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 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 see in your premises. 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 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 severe threat to anyone’s health.
