Durban Pest Control Specialists

Fleas are troublesome pests that infest homes and pets. They can cause great discomfort when they bite you and can leave a small red bump on your skin. Flea bites can appear in a straight line or in a cluster of many bites. Flea bites most commonly occur on your legs, feet and ankles. Some people may have an allergic reaction to flea bites where the area will become itchy and start swelling. Flea bite can also cause a skin rash.

Fleas are very hardy and robust creatures and can survive for more than 100 days without a host. These tiny bloodsuckers multiply very quickly, making eradication challenging.

A majority of flea infestations in the home originate from infested household pets.

However, fleas can also gain entry into your home by attaching to shoes or trouser legs. It’s important to eliminate fleas from your living space and safeguard your family and pets from their bites and associated problems.

In combination with Pest Shield’s flea control treatment the homeowner will need to treat his pets for fleas, using a veterinarian recommended treatment, so that there is not a reinfestation at the property after the pest control treatment.
