These wingless insects are about 2.5mm long, ranging from brown to reddish brown. Although they don’t fly, their six long legs give them ability to jump from host to host. Fleas are hairy so they can settle into a host, yet are thin and flat for ease of movement in fur. Fleas are visible with the naked eye in infested pet’s fur.
Fleas are parasites the need blood from a host to survive. If fleas have a preference to feed, it’s on hairy animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, squirrels, rates, mice and other domesticated or wild animals. Fleas are typically brought into a home via pets; however eggs are not attached to the host. Eggs hatch within two days on the ground, in carpets, bedding or upholstery.
Adult fleas are easier to see. At this stage, fleas will jump around trying to land on pets and people looking for a host. Flea eggs and larvae are found in discreet areas such as pet bedding, cracks and grooves in floors or carpets and under or inside furniture. Flea larvae spin cocoons 5-20 days after hatching from their eggs at which point they need a blood meal within 24-48 hours. Day & Nite Pest control has extensive flea control experience in the Bay Area.
