Look out for the Fall Flea Surge

Summer’s coming to a close, but that doesn’t mean flea season is almost behind us. In fact, fleas surge in the fall due to increased precipitation and temperatures lingering around 70 degrees. Fleas thrive in this kind of warm, moist environment.

Plus, pets’ winter coats start growing in the fall, providing cozy corners for the little critters to hide. So, don’t let your guard down. Continue your pets’ flea medication but also keep a close eye on them when they’re outside, rake up leaf piles that may be ripe with fleas, etc. And if you need our help, Pet Wellness Clinics is here for you!
