Fleas Removal & Control Melbourne
Fleas are blood-sucking parasites that feed off humans and pets such as dogs and cats. They can infest any household using a wide range of host mammals including humans. There are close to several dozen species of fleas in Australia, with most of them living in warm and humid climates. The high humidity favours the development of their larvae.
They are able to find their host with ease, due to their leaping ability and heightened senses, used to finding warm-blooded bodies, which is why flea control. A healthy presence of adult fleas can get several meals out of one bite, ensuring that their offspring get plenty to eat by feeding off their dung.
The Problem with a Flea Infestation
Fleas are known disease transmitters. They can transmit other parasites like tapeworm larvae, as well as the notorious bubonic plague from wild rodents to humans in certain parts of the world, thankfully not Australia. You will know when you have been bitten by a flea as the bite area will be extremely itchy, with a red swollen lump developing within half an hour to an hour of the bite. That’s why ensuring you have the right flea control measures is vital in the prevention of bites.
