Discover Pest Control Palmerston North Ltd 5-Step Flea Treatment If there is a flea infestation, it should be dealt to quickly! The higher temperatures and humidity of summer creates ideal breeding conditions for fleas, so if there is pets, it pays to know how to deal with a flea problem as soon as it occurs. Even just spotting one or two fleas on the pet or in the middle of a major flea outbreak, the treatment process is the same as one or two fleas can become an infestation very quickly! There are no short cuts with a flea treatment. There are 5 key steps to any flea treatment, no matter the size of the problem, as one never know where the eggs, larvae and pupae may be hiding. STEP 1: THE CLEAN Thoroughly vacuum all flooring and furniture in the house. Pay particular attention to the areas frequented by pets. Ensure to vacuum around the edges of rooms, under furniture, and any cracks in floorboards. Once the vacuuming is complete, empty the contents of the vacuum bag into a plastic bag, seal it and place it immediately in the bin outside. STEP 2: THE WASH Wash all bedding, furniture coverings, clothing, rugs, that can be washed in a washing machine in a hot wash cycle. Another option is to place such items in sealed black plastic bags in the sun for 1-2 hours - the heat kills all flea life stages. If unsure whether the fabric cannot be washed or tolerate temperatures to 70ºC, then leave the items in place and carry out a flea treatment (Step 4). STEP 3: TREAT AFFECTED PETS Treat pets with an appropriate flea treatment as recommended by the vet. (Not keeping the pet flea treatment up to date is one of the key causes of flea outbreaks). Dogs often get infested with fleas through contact with other animals or contact with fleas in the environment. The strong back legs of this insect enable it to jump from host to host or from the surrounding environment onto the host. (Fleas do not have wings, so they cannot fly.)
