Pest Control for Fleas

Fleas - North Brisbane Pest Control

Fleas are a type of wingless parasite found worldwide. They feed off the blood of humans and animals such as dogs and cats. 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 within certain parts of the world (not Australia).

There are three main species of flea that infest humans:

  • Cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis)
  • Dog flea (Ctenocephalides canis)
  • Human flea (Pulex irritans)

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

There are estimates of 4,000 different species while only 10% of these are known as pests which cause structural damage to buildings, crops and or other plantations.
