Human flea

Indoors and around animal resting areas, where eggs and immature stages develop in bedding, carpets, or soil.

Adults suck blood from humans and other mammals.

Wingless, laterally flattened, and capable of jumping; adults may live on a host, while eggs and larvae develop off-host.

Bites cause itchy, irritated skin; fleas can transmit pathogens. The photo is too small for reliable species-level identification.
