You won’t regret relying on the Broken Arrow exterminator for flea removal or any other pest removal. Fleas are external parasites, also known as blood sucking insects. Blood sucking insects because they live on sucking blood of mammals and birds. That’s why we often see them in the hair and fur of our pets.
The size of a flea can be 0.1 cm to 0.32 cm, but they don’t have wings like other insects. They have a small body with cuticles and bristles. Since fleas suck blood, your pet can go through anaemia if these insects live on its hair for a long time. It may go through many other diseases, like murine typhus, plague, CSD (Cat Scratch Diseases), etc. So, don’t delay calling the Broken Arrow exterminator if you see fleas in your property.
Flea Eggs
Knowing only about fleas is not enough. Flea eggs are also a major sign to detect fleas’ presence. Flea eggs are equivalent to salt. They are small, i.e. 0.5 mm, white, oval in shape, just like a white. The reason for their white colour is the soft shell, called chorion.
Don’t mistake a flea egg for random dirt. Your pet’s hair can have more flea eggs than fleas. Just like fleas, flea eggs can also make your pet feel irritated and itchy. Carpet steamer, dryer, or washer can be effective to remove their eggs
Anyway, one female flea can give 50 eggs in one day, and after one meal it can lay 5 to 8 eggs. It means that one flea can invite hundreds of fleas in your furry friend’s fur within some days. Fleas’ ability to reproduce fast is also a reason why you should eliminate them instantly.
