Flea Control in the Inner West
Many people that have pets in their homes complain about flea infestations and many that don't have any pets do the same. The fact is that fleas do live on pets and that may cause an infestation that is very severe. At times, you may have moved into a house that previously had pets and that's how your home has fleas even though you don't have any pets at all. These miniature creatures tend to breed pretty quickly, and before long you might find yourself dealing with a full-blown flea infestation.
Apart from being found on pets, fleas are also found on hairy animals such as mice, rats, rabbits and foxes. These creatures are parasites and though their bites aren't painful the itch or rash they leave behind can be quite difficult to deal with. Sometime, pets also develop an allergy to the saliva of fleas. Since these creatures are extremely tiny, people don't realise they have fleas on their property till the situation gets out of control. Here are some pointers that will help you notice that you have a flea infestation on your property.
Signs of a Flea Infestation
- Fleas crawling on your pet's coat
- These pests are around 2mm in length
- They are reddish brown in colour
- Fleas generally live around the neck & the hind quarter areas of pets. If you feel they might have fleas, these are the areas you should be looking at.
- Your pet's skin may also have fine black droppings on it. This is essentially flea faeces; it looks like black pepper powder.
- You may notice flea dirt on rugs, carpets & beddings too.
