How Fleas Spread Between Pets, Bedding & Homes
SLV Pest Control?s existing guidance describes animal hosts bringing adult fleas indoors, with eggs falling onto carpets and bedding and developing through larval and cocoon stages.
Animal Hosts Bring Fleas Indoors
The existing flea FAQ explains that dogs and cats may pick up fleas during walks, at dog parks, or through interaction with other animals. Adult fleas can then be carried into indoor spaces by their hosts.
The same guidance notes that female fleas lay non-sticky eggs on pets; eggs can roll off as pets walk and spread through the home.
From Eggs to Emerging Adults
According to the existing site copy, eggs can fall onto carpets and bedding, larvae feed on organic flea dirt, and larvae form protective silken cocoons. Adult fleas can emerge in response to host footsteps and body warmth.
