Flea Control Riverside CA
Fleas do not only bother cats and dogs. Fleas can be bothersome to your whole family. While some people never experience a fleabite, others seem overly attractive to these tiny insects.
Ctenocephalides felis, or the cat flea, is the most common flea found in America and are prevalent in California. Although dog fleas and cat fleas look similar, they are not the same. Dog fleas are uncommon within the state.
The trouble with fleas is that most are 1/8inch long or less. It can be difficult to see them unless you happen to catch one crawling across your pet, yourself or a family member. The adult cat flea can spend its entire life cycle on your pet, from egg to adulthood. It’s a fact that the female can lay up to 50 eggs per day. These eggs hatch in under a week, quickly filling your home with larvae.
Because of the number of eggs that female fleas lay, flea control can be difficult to tackle on your own. Some pets, like people, are not sensitive to fleabites and saliva. Other pets have what is called fleabite allergy dermatitis (FAD). The bite from a single flea can send these pets into fits of scratching and, unfortunately, severe skin reactions.
