Cat flea

Found on domestic and wild mammals, and within indoor environments such as carpets, bedding, and furniture where hosts spend time.

Adults feed exclusively on the blood of mammals and birds.

Wingless insects specialized for jumping long distances; they undergo complete metamorphosis (egg, larva, pupa, adult) and require a blood meal to reproduce.

Can cause intense itching, allergic reactions, and skin irritation in humans and pets through their bites, and may transmit certain parasites like tapeworms. They offer no notable benefits in residential environments.
