Fleas

Flea

Fleas are the most common cause of skin disorders for pets and people in Thailand. A single flea bite to a hypersensitive animal or person can cause intense itching and irritation.

Fleas progress through a life cycle from egg, larva, cocoon and finally into an adult flea. In the cocoon stage, a flea may lie dormant for over a year.

Our recommended treatment for fleas is for all the floor areas of a home to be sprayed with a residual insecticide, paying particular attention to the floor/wall junctions and areas where pets frequent most often.
