About Fleas\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fleas are small, wingless parasites that feed on the blood of mammals, including cats, dogs, and humans. Their bites can cause irritation, allergic reactions, and discomfort. Although there are over 60 species of fleas native to Britain, the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis) is the most common culprit in household infestations. Dog fleas, human fleas, rabbit fleas, bird fleas, hedgehog fleas, and mole fleas are occasionally found, but cat fleas are far more prevalent.<\/p>

Despite the name, cat fleas readily feed on dogs and humans as well. Adult fleas bite their hosts while larvae usually live in nearby bedding or carpets, feeding on dead skin cells, debris, and fur. Their life cycle allows them to multiply rapidly, making early detection and professional treatment vital.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fleas are small, often black or brown, and range from 1mm to 8mm in size. They have powerful hind legs, allowing them to jump many times their body length to locate hosts or escape danger. Their flat bodies make it easy for them to move through fur and hair, and they can hide in the tiniest gaps around bedding, carpets, and furniture. This makes DIY detection and treatment particularly challenging, and professional intervention is usually the most reliable way to eliminate an infestation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fleas are more than just a nuisance\u2014they can affect both pets and humans. Their bites cause itching and irritation, and scratching can lead to secondary skin infections. In some cases, flea bites may trigger allergic reactions, especially in sensitive individuals or pets. Fleas can also carry and transmit certain parasites and pathogens, making prompt removal important for health and hygiene.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
