You will often find fleas comfortably snuggled in your pet’s fur. Their eggs may also spread throughout your whole property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and flooring. larvae often lurk deep within the carpet fabric or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here are our sure ways to help you keep a flea-free house:

Vacuum your surroundings and out-of-reach areas – carpets, furnishings, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furniture. This will not only get rid of adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and other organic matter, which accumulate in things like carpets and rugs. Removing this source of food is an important step in breaking the flea life cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very carefully away from the house because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets regularly with a flea comb and wash their beds each week (ideally at 50°c or above).

If your pet is scratching or biting its fur you should speak with your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to treat your pet.
