Keeping fleas away in summer
Why fleas love warm weather, and the simple habits that keep them away.
Fleas thrive in warm, humid conditions, and in summer they can complete their whole life cycle in just a few weeks. That’s why a few fleas can quickly turn into a lot. A little routine goes a long way.
Simple habits that help
- Groom your pets regularly. It’s the easiest way to spot fleas early.
- Keep the grass short and the garden tidy. Fleas love long grass and shady, overgrown corners.
- Hoover often. Flea eggs and larvae hide in carpets, rugs and soft furnishings, so get into the edges and under furniture.
- Keep up with flea treatments. Treat on schedule, all year round, and ask your vet which treatment suits your pet.
