This document provides information on identifying and controlling a flea infestation using least toxic methods. It describes the lifecycle of fleas, from egg to larva to adult, and how they feed and live on host animals. It then gives recommendations for monitoring flea populations, including using flea traps, and controlling the infestation through regular vacuuming, grooming pets, washing bedding, and applying boric acid or diatomaceous earth. Non-chemical controls like steaming, heat treatment, and nematodes are also recommended.
