 Disclaimer

Description: Fleas are just about everywhere in our environment but prefer damp dark places. As matter of fact, larvae will not survive without moisture. Flea’s larvae feed on organic debris in their environment and on adult flea feces. Adult fleas feed on blood. Fleas are transported on a variety of animals and flea eggs fall off into the environment, hatch into larvae and hitch a ride on by-passers - your dog. The larvae mature and lay eggs which fall into your carpets and furniture, waiting to re-infect your dog and others all over again. The complete flea life cycle takes approximately 21 days. Excessive flea infestation can cause anemia and also tape worms.
