These small insects or ecoparasites feed on the blood of wildlife, pets, and humans. Their bodies are very narrow which allows them to navigate through fur, plush carpet, and even thin cracks in hardwood floors. Fleas prefer to rely on your pets as a food source. Many will feed on humans when the infestation is heavy or pets are not available. These infestations can get out of hand in short order. This happens for several reasons:

Only about fifteen percent of flea population are adults. Eggs, larvae, and pupae make up the rest.

Most fleas focus on pets and not the owner. Going unnoticed until the pets start scratching.

Improper home remedies suppress the adults but do not address the other three life cycles.

The particular size of flea ‘bombs’ may not penetrate deep enough into carpet fibers where fleas live. The fog settles on tables, chairs, dishes, etc. so owners and family members are exposed to unneeded pesticides.
