A female flea only has to mate once in her lifetime to reproduce,
after that she is continually producing eggs. The eggs normally
fall from the host animal and end up in the carpet where the
larvae will emerge after approx 1 week, to live of the dead
skin cells, adult flea excreta and other debris that is their
after that she is continually producing eggs. The eggs normally
fall from the host animal and end up in the carpet where the
larvae will emerge after approx 1 week, to live of the dead
skin cells, adult flea excreta and other debris that is their
food source. After 2-3 weeks the larvae spins a silk cocoon in which the
development to adult takes place. The flea can stay in the pupa for long
periods and is “woken” from this stage by the vibration and body heat of
a passing meal. The flea will often over winter at this stage. The
development from egg to adult is normally about 4 weeks but will be much
longer in colder conditions - an adult can live for 18 months or so.
We achieve control by spraying with a residual insecticide; the product we
normally use will remain active for in excess of 6 months and give us
control within one visit. This is the most effective product that we have
ever used, eliminating the need for repeat treatments whist giving our
clients relief. Smoke bombs, which contain permethrin, may sound
impressive but are designed for areas that are inaccessible to sprays and
areas where people are unable to breathe the dust. Permethrin is a
product that has an open time of only 1 month allowing any late developing
pupae to continue their lifecycle.
