Identifying fleas in Windcrest

Adults are 1/8" long, dark brown, flattened side-to-side, and jump impressively far. Bites cluster around ankles and lower legs.

Behavior & habitat

A single female lays 40–50 eggs per day. Eggs fall off the host into carpet, bedding, and yard soil. Pupae can stay dormant for months and emerge when vibration signals a host.

Why fleas are a problem here

Itchy, allergenic bites; can transmit tapeworms to pets and (rarely) typhus to humans. Severe infestations cause anemia in puppies and kittens.

Windcrest seasonal outlook: Flea activity peaks during warm, humid months and can continue indoors year-round once eggs and pupae settle into protected areas.

Why Windcrest homes get fleas

Windcrest sits in Bexar County, where long triple-digit summers, mild winters, and sudden heavy rain give fleas a nearly year-round runway. Irrigation cycles, shaded landscaping, and standing moisture keep flea activity high even when the yard looks dry, which is why our Windcrest programs run on a schedule instead of a single visit.

Where they get in around here

On Windcrest routes, our technicians track flea activity back to pet bedding, rugs, and upholstered furniture, shaded yard zones and crawl areas where wildlife rests, carpet edges and baseboard seams, and the pet's regular path between yard and living space. We treat those pressure points directly — targeted perimeter applications, void treatments, monitored bait or trapping placements, and exclusion work — so the population drops instead of shifting a few feet down the wall.

“Most Windcrest flea calls we run aren't a mystery — the conditions are right and nobody closed the gaps. We find the pressure point, treat it, then come back and verify. If it moves again, so do we, on our dime.”
