YOUR CHILD’S HEALTH CARE: CENTIPEDE BITES AND FLEA BITES
Posted by adminCentipede bites
Centipedes inflict bites via front fangs. Although their venom is not poisonous, their bites can cause severe pain and swelling. Give your child paracetamol in recommended doses and if the pain persists, see your doctor.
Domestic pets are notorious carriers of fleas, especially in the summer months. Fleas can live in carpets and furniture for several months.
Special preparations are available for treating your pets, and the carpets and furniture should also be sprayed. You should suspect the presence of fleas in your house if you notice small, itchy red marks on the ankles of members of your family. The fleas jump up from the carpet, in search of a warmer host! If you have moved into a new house, and the previous owners kept pets, you would be well advised to spray the carpet against fleas.
