Do not use fire or pesticides not formulated for this exact purpose. Because individual reaction to bee sting varies, always consult your health professional on first aid. The secret to controlling fleas is understanding life cycle and using sanitation. Fleas infest and irritate man and domestic animals worldwide. Infestation populations can and are often found to be extreme even when the host is not available.
Fleas are small wingless insects averaging two to four millimeters.
The body is compressed latterly to permit unobstructed movement between hairs and feathers. Adult fleas have piercing-sucking mouth parts. As adults, they can jump eight inches vertically and 16 inches horizontally. Fleas have a metamorphosis. Egg, larva, pupa, and adults can usually all be found during the infestation.
