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 creatures like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as pigs.

Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, lost hair, skin, and a few other organic debris that they could find in your dwelling. You will regularly find fleas simply snuggled on your pet’s fur. Their eggs can also unfold in your whole property, infesting your bedding, furnishings, and flooring. Larvae frequently lurk deep within the carpeting material or within a convenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here’s our to-do listing to help you keep 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 matters like carpets and rugs. 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 living .

Groom your pets regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds every week (ideally at 50°c or above).
