A flea is really a small insect which springs about and possesses no wings. These pests usually are no larger than 1/8 inches, but tend to be a very huge aggravation. These insects survive off of the blood of animals, and therefore are often transported into the home by pets that go out and in. Cats and dogs are common carriers of fleas, though sometimes these fleas can get on humans too. These are extremely active and may leap 7 inches into the air and 13 inches sideways, thus bouncing from a single animal to a different one is simple. The flea will bite the human or animal and feast of their blood, causing a tiny rash, bump, irritation and itchiness.
