The cat flea, (Ctenocephalides felis), and the dog flea, (Ctenocepholides canis), prefer cats, dogs, and man as hosts. Because of their irritating bites and ability to transmit disease, fleas are among the most medically important group of insects. The adults are black to brownish-black, wingless insects. Their back pair of legs are stout and used for jumping. Adult fleas are 1-4 mm in length. They have piercing sucking mouth parts. The larvae are wormlike, without legs and with chewing mouthparts. A mature larva will be 3-4 mm in length. Fleas are parasites. The adults feed on the blood of pets such as cats and dogs. They will also feed on the blood of man. One flea usually bites several times because of interrupted feedings. The female flea can lay several hundred eggs. These eggs are laid loosely on the host and drop onto floors, bedding and the ground outside. Eggs hatch into larvae in about 10 days.The larvae feed on all types of organic debris, including the feces of adult fleas. The life cycle is complete metamorphosis. Fleas can be a serious health hazard to humans. They transmit diseases such as bubonic plague. Many people have an allergic reaction to a flea bite and secondary infections can be caused by scratching. Cat and dog fleas are intermediate hosts of the dog tapeworm. Children can become infested with this tapeworm when they accidentally swallow infested fleas. We provide flea control services fast and in timely manner in Calgary and area.
