Broken Arrow Flea Pest Control

Fleas are one of the most annoying pests to deal with. They’re small, wingless, and flat. With claws on all 3 pairs of legs and is a reddish-brown color. They can be very hard to spot on many animals’ bodies because they move so fast. 

 

While fleas are wingless they have powerful legs that allow them to jump as high as 8’’ vertically, which is over 150 times their own height. And while most fleas feed on pets, they can feed on humans too. 

 

Whether inside your home or outside, they can be quite a nuisance. Once they’re mature they can mate and lay eggs which can fall off the host and into bedding, carpeting, blankets, and more. And when fleas bite, they leave behind an itchy, swollen, and unpleasant bite. They’re also a danger because they can transfer tapeworms and cause anemia in your pets.
