Don’t Fumble With Your Flea Removal

Nearly every pet owner has experienced the presence of fleas at one point or another. It is easy to assume that these pests focus on dogs alone but this isn’t the case. Fleas are not picky eaters and will take a bite out of dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets and even humans. Unlike the dreaded lice, fleas are more widespread and stubborn. If you are stalling your flea removal, here are some things to consider: 

Fleas Have Flexible Schedules: Unlike some other pests, fleas do not have a designated time for mating or growing. In addition to have multiple life stages (eggs, larvae, pupae and adult), fleas can boost their populations based on climate. If temperatures are warm and damp, populations will swell, meaning big trouble for homes and interiors. These shifting cycles make fleas extremely difficult to get rid of. 

Surrounding Environments: Using a flea comb on your pet seems like a simple solution to your infestation but this is not enough to get rid of fleas for good. When managing an infestation, you have to treat surrounding areas as well. Vacuuming, steam cleaning and powder treatments for furniture might help to remove a few fleas but these will not be enough to eliminate the problem as a whole. 

Bacteria: No one wants to deal with bug bites but fleas can transmit bacteria as well. The most common type of bacteria associated with fleas is Bartonella Henselae but they are also known to transmit parasites, like tapeworms to pets.
