How do fleas breed?
Fleas usually live in mammals and feed on the host's blood. It's a very annoying insect. So how do fleas breed?
How do fleas breed?
1. Flea adults live on the host all the time. Find the host to suck blood, and within two days, the adults begin to reproduce at a rate of 50 eggs a day. Eggs and flea droppings fall together, and those droppings will be food for the larvae. There may be eggs and larvae in all the places the cat has visited, but it sleeps in the most places.
2. The larvae like dark places, so they may move to the depths of the carpet or sofa. The larva finally forms a cocoon, and the adult grows well in the cocoon, waiting for signals from the host, such as heat, carbon dioxide, or vibration. If there is no host, the adult can wait in the cocoon for two years.
3. If the conditions are suitable, the life cycle of fleas can be completed within 15 days. Homes with heating and carpets are suitable for fleas all the year round.
Second, the living habits of fleas
Fleas are extracorporeal parasites of animals or human beings. Rodents are the most common hosts, and dogs, cats or people are also the main hosts of certain fleas. Both male and female adults must suck blood, and female fleas cannot lay eggs without sucking blood. Under natural conditions, Xenopsylla kaihuang sucks blood at least 2-3 times a day. The host selectivity and blood-sucking specificity of all kinds of fleas are not so strict, and some fleas have a wide range of hosts (such as Xenopsylla kaihuang), so they can change their hosts frequently. Spread by rodent burrowing, gregarious, hunting, and seasonal migration. Fleas also have the habit of actively leaving the original host to find a new host, and they are good at jumping (up to 19.7 cm, up to 33 cm). When a large number of plague rats die, they take the initiative to look for new hosts and endanger humans. Fleas can also often spread everywhere with the activities of rodents, and can also be transported from one place to another through the transportation of goods and luggage.
Fleas can cause some dermatitis and endanger the health of people and animals. if fleas are found, they should be killed in time.
