Has your furry friend been scratching more lately? You’re not alone! This wet, overcast weather we’ve been experiencing creates the perfect breeding conditions for fleas.
WHY IT’S HAPPENING:
Fleas thrive in warm, humid environments (23-30°C with 70%+ humidity). All this rain has created ideal conditions for fleas to multiply rapidly in your yard, neighbourhood veld, and anywhere your dog explores.
SIGNS YOUR DOG MAY HAVE FLEAS:
. Excessive scratching, biting, or licking
. Red, irritated skin
. Visible fleas or “flea dirt” (tiny black specks) in their coat
. Hair loss or hot spots
SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR PET:
- Regular brushing to detect fleas early
- Wash bedding weekly in hot water
- Vacuum carpets and furniture frequently
- Maintain your yard by keeping grass short
- Consult your vet about preventative flea treatments
