Fleas are tiny, wingless parasites notorious for their ability to consume blood from humans and animals. Their reproductive rate is alarmingly high, with a single flea capable of turning your home into a battleground. These pests can leap up to a foot, making it easy for them to latch onto pets. Fleas undergo four life stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult, with the ability to lay up to 20 eggs simultaneously. The larval stage feeds on organic debris, while the pupal stage can remain dormant for months. Adult fleas require an initial blood meal to survive, after which they can go months without feeding.
At Bug Squashers Of Maryland, our approach to flea control involves the strategic use of liquid residual insecticides and insect growth regulators. The residual insecticide targets adult fleas, while the growth regulator effectively halts the lifecycle of larvae. We recommend pre-treatment with growth regulators to preemptively break the lifecycle for homes with flea infestations. Additionally, aerosols may be used for immediate effect in specific scenarios.
Effective flea control begins with thorough preparation. We advise vacuuming and mopping areas frequently visited by pets to remove eggs and larvae. Particular attention should be paid to hard-to-reach spots like baseboards. It's crucial to empty the vacuum bag outside to prevent re-infestation. Removing pets from the premises for 4-6 hours post-treatment ensures safety and effectiveness. We also recommend flea treatments for pets, such as flea dips or medications, as a complementary measure.
