Fleas are a common nuisance for pet owners, and they can also transmit diseases to both animals and humans. While fleas are most active during warm weather, they can survive in cold weather as well - although at a decreased rate.
Adult fleas can survive in temperatures as low as 40 degrees Fahrenheit, but they become less active and lay fewer eggs in cold weather. Eggs can survive in temperatures as low as 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but they will not hatch until the temperature rises. Larvae and pupae are more susceptible to cold temperatures and will die if the temperature drops below 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
While cold weather can slow down fleas and prevent them from reproducing, it is unlikely to kill them outright. Even in the coldest weather, some fleas will survive and continue to lay eggs. This is why it is important to take steps to prevent and control fleas all year round, regardless of the temperature.
Even though cold weather can slow down fleas, it is important to remember that fleas can still survive and reproduce in cold weather. By taking steps to prevent and control fleas all year round, you can help to keep your pets and your home free of these pests.
If you are concerned about fleas in cold weather, take steps to prevent and control fleas all year round. By following the tips and tricks in this article, you can help to keep your pets and your home free of these pests.
