THE SPECIES

Our flea removal team in Melbourne recognise that there are three main species of flea that infest humans:

The cat and dog flea are common in Australia. A flea bite is intensely itchy and secondary infections caused by scratching are common.

THE PROBLEM

Fleas are a type of wingless parasite found worldwide. They feed off the blood of humans and animals such as dogs and cats, inflicting extremely itchy bites. Since fleas use a wide range of hosts, diseases can be transferred from one host to another. Fleas are known to transmit tapeworm larvae and, uncommonly, the disease murine typhus. They are most notorious for transmitting bubonic plague from wild rodents to humans in certain parts of the world (not Australia).

SOLVING THE PROBLEM

One of our qualified Pest Controllers can determine the type, source and extent of the infestation, they then use registered insecticides to control the fleas. Good hygiene practices, such as frequent house cleaning, should reduce the risk of further infestations. We also recommend treating any pets for fleas with appropriate products from your vet.
