Fleas and flea pest control has been an issue presenting itself to humanity since the beginning of time. Fleas are highly specialized blood sucking parasites that generally get introduced to the home by cats and dogs.
Flea Identification
Fleas are light brown to mahogany in colour and roughly oval shaped. Their
laterally flattened appearance allows them to move quickly. Fleas are 2-8 mm
in length. They have a small head with sawing and sucking mouth parts, and two
tiny eyes. Both the male and female rely on blood for their nutrition, but can
survive for several months without it.
Flea Reproduction
Fleas have a four stage life cycle. 1. Eggs, 2. Larvae, 3. Pupa, 4. flea adults.
The complete life cycle from flea eggs to flea adults can vary from two weeks to eight months.
Female fleas use the blood to nourish developing eggs, she will lay up to 4 eggs
after each blood meal. Most female fleas will lay 100 eggs with in her life of approximately eight months. The flea eggs are oval, white to cream in colour and measure 0.5mm in length.
The flea eggs hatch when they are vibrated from animal or human disturbance.
Flea Habitat
Fleas are likely to be found where pets feed, rest and play. From late December to late February, I don't take my dog to the park because of all the fleas evident at the park. It's the peak of the flea season. Prolonged periods of warm, humid weather in the summer months provide ideal conditions for fleas to flourish.
Flea control preparation
Micropest requires our clients to carry out a few simple actions before we come around and flea control their house(s) or building.
1. Mow the lawns
2. Vacuum all the internal floors and throw away vacuum bag afterwards.
3. Wash all pet bedding with an appropriate flea wash.
4. Pick up all unnecessary items that are on the ground inside and out
as we need to treat as much floor space as possible for successful elimination.
Flea Pest Control
Micro Pest Control utilizes a treatment called Cislin when carrying out a flea control treatment. Cislin is a microencapsulated pyrethium which has a residual life of approximately three months. A water based flea pest control product.

Micropest treats all the external areas such as gardens and lawns and then all the internal floor areas of a house or building. It can take up to nine days to control fleas because the eggs are impervious to any treatments and must hatch before eliminating the fleas. When the flea egg hatches it lands on a treated service and picks up some Cislin on its legs and when it grooms itself, it injects the pyrethium.
