Flea off a cat? (I have 4)
http://entomology.osu.edu/bugdoc/She...s/Orders33.htm

Flea larva anyway.

No, it looked adult.

Your pic is of nothing like a real adult flea.

Much too long and thin for a real flea.

It was not a squirmy little caterpillar-like thing.

Adult fleas look nothing like that and jump, most insects don't.

It did jump.

They look exactly like that, this is a cat flea:
http://entomology.osu.edu/bugdoc/She...s/Orders33.htm

Your pic looks like the one in the top right. That's a flea lava, not
an
adult flea.

You pic looks nothing like the other two pics of adult fleas.

It looks like the bottom one.

Your original looks nothing like the bottom one.

Apart from facing a different way, it is identical.

Even sillier than you usually manage.

4 fleas or 4 cats?

To make sure the fleas never reawake to live in your house then I suggest
Indorex. The fleas and their larve can lie dormant in carperts etc for a
while.

It was the only answer when I fostered a flea infested moggie.

It did jump.

They look exactly like that, this is a cat flea:
http://entomology.osu.edu/bugdoc/She...s/Orders33.htm

Your pic looks like the one in the top right. That's a flea lava,
not
an
adult flea.

You pic looks nothing like the other two pics of adult fleas.

It looks like the bottom one.

Your original looks nothing like the bottom one.

Apart from facing a different way, it is identical.

Even sillier than you usually manage.

It is the same bug,

You never could bull**** your way out of a wet paper bag.

I can tell they are the same bug,

We can see that they aren't.

You are incorrect. Look at the shape from front to back, look at its width, etc, etc.

If you believe in creation as espoused in the Bible, then Adam and Eve's children would actually have had to have sex with one another for the earth to have become populated.

This is surely proof positive that Alabama was at one time the Garden of Eden.

Ask on uk.rec.natural-history

Flea off a cat? (I have 4)
http://entomology.osu.edu/bugdoc/She...s/Orders33.htm



4 fleas or 4 cats?

To make sure the fleas never reawake to live in your house then I suggest
Indorex. The fleas and their larve can lie dormant in carperts etc for a
while.

It was the only answer when I fostered a flea infested moggie.

Noted. So you spray the 500ml aerosol all over the house?


On all carpets etc.

In this case it was only one room, as that is where the foster cat
slept/lived.

Flea off a cat? (I have 4)
http://entomology.osu.edu/bugdoc/She...2InsectOrders/
Orders33.htm



4 fleas or 4 cats?

To make sure the fleas never reawake to live in your house then I
suggest Indorex. The fleas and their larve can lie dormant in
carperts etc for a while.

It was the only answer when I fostered a flea infested moggie.

Noted. So you spray the 500ml aerosol all over the house?


On all carpets etc.

In this case it was only one room, as that is where the foster cat
slept/lived.

WE have 4 or 5 cans of the stuff in the cupboard.

Your capitalisation made it look like you were going to write ner ner
ner ner ner at the end.

Lagging shift key.

Sure it's not a lagging finger? I do that. Also makes you type form
instead of from.

Not as bad as a terminal I once used that 'lagged' the shift key badly.

We all typed (once): rm *.o on those. Once.

I do not understand.

I didn't think you would.

Couple of years.

In this case it was only one room, as that is where the foster cat

You need to do it twice, with a couple of weeks between hits, so that
the pupae (which will survive being sprayed) will hatch out and get
done by the second hit.

Also put the stuff on the cats necks as has already been discussed.

What's wrong with spraying the cat with it?

We don't seem to be able to get the insecticide bombs in this country
more's the pity.

Import one then, whatever it is.

If you have a dog then you have stinking animal by definition. Cats

They also don't lick you, dribble saliva on the floor, or need taken out for a walk or a ****. They can also freely move around in public without morons taking them to a pound (although that's the fault of idiot politicians, not dogs).

Flea off a cat? (I have 4)
http://entomology.osu.edu/bugdoc/She...2InsectOrders/
Orders33.htm



4 fleas or 4 cats?

To make sure the fleas never reawake to live in your house then I
suggest Indorex. The fleas and their larve can lie dormant in
carperts
etc for a while.

It was the only answer when I fostered a flea infested moggie.

Noted. So you spray the 500ml aerosol all over the house?


On all carpets etc.

In this case it was only one room, as that is where the foster cat
slept/lived.

WE have 4 or 5 cans of the stuff in the cupboard.

WE have a dog, West Highland Terrier.
She has never had fleas as she gets the preventative treatment.
We have no cans of "the stuff" in the cupboard. We have a dog, not a
stinking cat.

If you have a dog then you have stinking animal by definition. Cats
don't smell.

They also don't lick you, dribble saliva on the floor, or need taken out
for a walk or a ****. They can also freely move around in public without
morons taking them to a pound (although that's the fault of idiot
politicians, not dogs).

Nar, they just **** and **** in litter trays which are in the house. They
also ****ed all over your bed, which you did not even disinfect. Dirty
pikey.

Advice.

Perhaps you need remedial English.

Every house that I have been in which has cats stinks. And I've been in
some very posh houses.

Mine doesn't. No litter tray, cat is smart enough to **** elsewhere.

Same here. Two doors down, an old man who continues to try to shoot them with a super soaker 500 water pistol. He's not fast enough though.

The latest cat I got a fortnight ago is losing a lot of hair. Apparently this is from excessive grooming that they do when they have fleas. I'll spray him.

That doesn;t really help much the spray is for the carpets where the eggs hatch into laevy which is what the spray kills rather than the fleas.
fleas are killed by the stuff yuo get to put on the back of the neck.
It gets into the blood stream and that's what kills the fleas.
