Abstract

HOUSEHOLD FLEA PESTS

The unusually warm weather in October seems to have provided household fleas with an opportunity to continue reproducing. There have been reports of a resurgance of flea problems in late September and October -- just the time when the numbers of this pest should be declining! Homeowners frequently become desperate for an effective method of control for fleas on their pets and in the house. It is best that a veterinarian be consulted to treat fleas on pets. We can recommend control measures for the fleas in the carpet and furniture.
