  2. FLEA PEST CONTROL At Jim’s Termite & Pest Control, we understand the frustration and discomfort of dealing with a flea infestation. Fleas are known to spread disease and can quickly become a major problem if not dealt with promptly. That’s why we offer comprehensive flea pest control services to eliminate these pests and prevent them from returning. Our team of experienced technicians is trained to identify the signs of a flea infestation and implement effective treatment options to eradicate the infestation. We use a range of flea control methods, including chemical treatments and vacuuming, to target fleas at all stages of their lifecycle.

  3. FLEAS Fleas are a common nuisance in Australia, affecting pets and humans. With a diverse range of ecosystems and a warm climate, Australia provides an ideal breeding ground for fleas. These tiny, wingless insects thrive in humid environments, making coastal regions and tropical areas particularly prone to flea infestations. As a result, pets, such as dogs and cats, often suffer from itching and discomfort caused by flea bites. Additionally, fleas can transmit diseases like murine typhus and cat scratch fever, posing a health risk to animals and humans. Therefore, vigilance in regular pet grooming, flea prevention treatments, and maintaining a clean living environment is essential in combating flea populations in Australia.

  4. HOW CAN I TELL IF MY PET HAS FLEAS? Several signs may indicate your pet has fleas: 1. Excessive Scratching: If you notice your pet scratching, biting, or licking themselves more than usual, it could be a sign of fleas. Pay attention to the neck, back, tail base, and hindquarters. 2. Flea Dirt: Fleas leave behind dark, pepper-like specks called flea dirt. You can identify flea dirt by combing or parting your pet’s fur and looking for tiny black or brown flecks. To confirm if it’s flea dirt, place the dots on a damp paper towel – if they turn reddish-brown, it’s likely flea dirt. 3. Visible Fleas: In some cases, you may be able to spot fleas on your pet. They are small, brownish-black insects that move quickly through the fur. Check areas with less hair, such as the belly and inner thighs.

  5. CAN FLEAS AFFECT HUMANS? Yes, fleas can affect humans. While fleas primarily infest and feed on animals, they can bite humans and cause discomfort. Flea bites on humans usually appear as small, red, itchy bumps, similar to mosquito bites. However, some people may be allergic to flea saliva, leading to more severe itching, redness, and swelling. In addition to the physical irritation caused by flea bites, fleas are prone to transmitting diseases to humans. Certain flea species can carry and transmit diseases such as murine typhus, cat scratch fever (bartonellosis), and even the bubonic plague (though rare). These diseases are typically associated with specific types of fleas and certain regions, but it’s essential to be aware of the potential health risks.

  6. HOW CAN I PREVENT FLEAS? Preventing fleas requires a combination of measures targeting your pets and their living environment. Here are some practical ways to control fleas: 1. Use Veterinarian-Approved Flea Control Products: Regularly use flea control products recommended by your veterinarian, such as spot-on treatments, oral medications, or flea collars. These products help kill fleas and prevent infestations. Follow the instructions and dosage guidelines for your pet’s weight and species. 2. Maintain Good Pet Hygiene: Regularly groom your pets by combing or brushing their fur. This helps to detect fleas early and remove any adult fleas present. Additionally, give your pets regular baths with flea-repelling shampoos or soaps to kill any fleas on their bodies.
