\"\"<\/a>If you have ever had a flea infestation problem<\/a> or been bitten by fleas, you know how annoying these blood suckers can be. Fleas can be found on household pets and furry creatures that run through the yard.\u00a0 Once an infestation occurs inside your living space, fleas will set up shop in carpets, sofas, pet beds, and even human beds.<\/p>\n

Fleas<\/a> have been around for millions of years.\u00a0 Like other annoying pests, they feast on blood.\u00a0 They prefer animal blood, but humans are their second choice for a good meal.<\/p>\n

Fleas<\/a> have a similar life cycle to the butterfly, but they are not so pretty and their bites will leave you scratching for days.\u00a0 Female fleas lay eggs that turn into larvae.\u00a0 The larvae develop into pupae and settle inside a little flea cocoon.\u00a0 Fleas will wait inside their cocoon until a host (you, your pet, or other mammals) wonder by.\u00a0 Once the pupae detects a warm body, they unzip their cocoon and jump onto their host.\u00a0 The incredible process takes only three seconds!\u00a0 A flea can jump as high as four feet to achieve this task so a kitty lounging on a couch, with a pupae in the carpet, does not stand a chance of avoiding a flea.<\/p>\n

Female fleas can lay approximately 2,000 eggs in her lifetime, so it\u2019s easy to see how fleas can quickly infest your home or yard.<\/p>\n

Fleas can live 100 days without a blood meal, so packing up and running away from a flea infestation<\/a> in your New Jersey home will do no good.\u00a0 You must be diligent in your fight to get rid of fleas.\u00a0 Fleas in all stages of their life cycle must be killed<\/a> in order to rid your house of them completely. Let Allison Pest Control<\/a> help you fight your flea war today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
