Fleas: how do they spread?

Do you know how fleas can quickly spread in your home and on your pets? Let's take a closer look at the various ways these pesky parasites can make their way into your life. Fleas are tiny insects that survive by feeding on the blood of warm-blooded animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, rats, and humans. They are extremely mobile and can jump up to 100 times their own height. As a result, fleas have adapted to living in different environments like grassy lawns, woodlands, or even carpets and upholstery.

Fleas mainly spread through direct contact with an infested animal or person. If you encounter someone with fleas, you could easily pick them up from their clothing or skin. Once they're in your home, they'll start laying eggs which will hatch into larvae within two days. The larvae then feed on organic matter found in carpets or bedding before spinning cocoons to pupate.

Another way fleas spread is through an infested environment; this means that if you visit an area where there are lots of wild animals, like squirrels or foxes, carrying fleas, you could end up bringing some back home with you. Flea treatments like sprays or powders are essential for controlling flea populations in areas prone to infestations.

Flea Control Signs and Symptoms

Suppose your furry friend is constantly scratching like they're playing a never-ending game of whack-a-mole, and you're finding tiny specks of dirt that seem to be following you around like a persistent shadow. In that case, it's time to take action against those pesky little vampires. These signs may indicate that your pet has been infested with fleas. Fleas can jump from one host to another within seconds, so if you have pets or frequently visit places where animals are present, it's important to keep an eye out for these common signs.

Flea control is essential to prevent the spread of fleas in your home and protect both you and your pets from their harmful effects. Flea treatments such as sprays, powders, shampoos and spot-on products can be effective in killing adult fleas on cats and dogs. However, these treatments only target adult fleas and do not affect the eggs or larvae. Therefore, following up with regular pest control measures is important to break the flea life cycle.

Do I have to prepare before treatment?

Before the flea exterminator arrives at your home, take the time to prepare for flea treatments. This involves washing all bedding and clothing in hot water, clearing clutter, moving furniture, and vacuuming upholstery. By doing so, you are creating an environment that is conducive to flea eradication. Fleas can live in carpet fibres and furniture cushions for months on end; therefore, vacuuming everything thoroughly is essential.

When preparing for treatment for fleas, it's important to dispose of the bag outside immediately after vacuuming. This will prevent any remaining fleas or eggs from hatching inside your home. Additionally, make sure to clean and disinfect all surfaces, such as countertops and floors, since fleas can easily jump onto them. The goal of preparation is to ensure that there are no hiding places left for fleas.

During a flea treatment at my house, what should I expect?

During a professional flea treatment, you can expect the exterminator to utilise safe and effective procedures to rid your home of fleas while ensuring that pets and family members remain safe. The process usually starts with a thorough inspection of the infested areas to determine the severity of the infestation. Once identified, the exterminator will recommend a suitable treatment plan that may involve chemical or non-chemical treatments for complete eradication.

Here's what you can expect during a professional flea treatment:

1. The use of specialised equipment like vacuums, steamers, and sprayers to treat carpets, upholstery, bedding, and other areas where fleas are prevalent.

2. A detailed explanation of how long it will take for the treatment to be effective and any additional steps you need to take before or after treatment.

3. A follow-up appointment to ensure complete eradication and prevent future infestations.

4. Friendly and discreet service throughout the entire process.

Remember the old adage, " Preventing illness is better than curing it." Taking proactive steps to prevent fleas from entering your home is much easier than trying to eliminate them once they've established themselves. With our expertise in flea control treatments, we can help you keep these pesky parasites at bay and ensure a happy and healthy home for all members of your family – furry or otherwise.
