Do you have cats? Dogs? Where are the fleas coming from?



I have never treated my home for fleas. I will treat an individual cat or dog with a perscrition medication (drops applied the nape of the neck.) Or maybe put some cedar on the dog's bed. They are nowhere near my snakes.



Like I said, thankfully I have never had a severe flea problem to the extent that it became an issue. But what I can say is to be EXTREMELY careful of any chemical flea products that you use.



I had an experience once with termites in a house I was living in. I tried to consult exterminators as to the safety of different treatments for my herps. However, I found that they generally had no understanding, nor did they much care. I just wouldn't do it. Fortunately I ended up moving out of that house. (I wasn't mine) before I had to deal with that.
