The demand for flea control in Louisiana is huge, especially for dog and cat owners. It is important to hire a pest professional to get rid of fleas in your house or workplace, and DA Exterminating is the right company for the job.

Fleas are six legged, tiny, flat, reddish-brown parasites that will feed on any warm-blooded animal, but they seem to have an affinity for dogs and cats. Unfortunately in most flea infested homes or offices, humans also feel the backlash. Fleas lay eggs wherever they crawl, which can be on floors or on furniture. Fleas are capable of easily escaping from being captured, jumping over a foot in any direction very quickly. This also makes fleas very transportable. Fleas use other animals, including household pets, to get from one place to another.

Fleas pose a much bigger threat to pets than humans. Their saliva can cause Flea Allergy Dermatitis – a very serious condition – and they can transmit tapeworms and cause anemia, making your pet miserable. Humans can also be susceptible to flea allergies.
