FLEA TREATMENT
TREATMENT for fleas
An interior spray with an insect growth regulator
Carpets, skirting board, furniture and door and window frames.
Insect growth regulators (IGR) are chemicals that interfere with flea development in the egg and during the larval and pupal stages. IGRs prevent the insect from reaching adulthood and reproducing - effectively sterilising the population.
Sometimes a second treatment may be needed for heavy infestations.

Why get rid of fleaS?
Pet Health: Fleas are a common parasite that can infest pets, such as dogs and cats. Fleas feed on the blood of animals, causing itching, discomfort, and skin irritation. Flea bites can lead to allergic reactions, dermatitis, and even transmit diseases or parasites to your pets, such as tapeworms. Protecting the health and well-being of your pets is a primary reason to eliminate fleas.
Human Health: While fleas primarily target animals, they can also bite humans. Flea bites can cause itchy, red welts and allergic reactions in some individuals. Fleas can transmit diseases to humans, such as murine typhus and Bartonella infections. Removing fleas from your premises helps reduce the risk of flea bites and associated health complications for both pets and humans.
Household Infestation: Fleas reproduce rapidly, and a few fleas can quickly lead to a full-blown infestation. Fleas can hide in carpets, furniture, bedding, and other areas of your home. If left unaddressed, a flea infestation can spread throughout your living space, making eradication more challenging and disruptive.
Disruption of Daily Life: Fleas can cause significant disruption to daily life. Constant itching and discomfort from flea bites can interfere with sleep, work, and general well-being. Additionally, the presence of fleas can create a sense of uncleanliness and discomfort in your home.
Prevention of Reinfestation: Eliminating fleas from your premises is essential to prevent reinfestation. This requires not only treating affected pets but also addressing the source of fleas in the environment. Proper sanitation practices, vacuuming, regular pet grooming, and using flea control products are crucial to prevent fleas from returning.
Protection of Property: Fleas can cause damage to your property, including carpets, furniture, and fabrics. Flea larvae can burrow into carpet fibres and furniture upholstery, causing stains, odors, and potential long-term damage. By removing fleas, you help protect your property from such damage.
Peace of Mind: Dealing with a flea infestation can be stressful and overwhelming. Eliminating fleas from your premises provides peace of mind, ensuring a comfortable, safe, and healthy living environment for you, your family, and your pets.
To effectively eliminate fleas, it is recommended to consult with a veterinarian for proper pet treatment and consult with a professional pest control service for targeted flea control measures in your home. They can provide guidance, tailored treatment plans, and preventive strategies to address fleas and reduce the risk of future infestations.
