How to Kill Fleas

This site if for people who want to know how to kill fleas. Getting rid of fleas is not the easiest task in the world but if you follow the instructions on this site then it WILL be worth the trouble.

I want to keep this guide as short and on point as possible, so let’s get started. In order to get rid of fleas you have to know the life cycle of a flea. Fleas live on their host (cat, dog etc) but their eggs can be left on the host AND everywhere else where the host has been. This means if your dog walks around the living room, in the garden and sleeps on your bed then most likely you have flea eggs in all those places also. The eggs usually hatch in 1-2 weeks, after which the fleas emerge as larvae that can live in bedding and carpets for up to 6 months before transforming into legless pupa. If the conditions are not right then it can take over a year before they transform into an adult. Conditions like this usually result in mass infestation.
