Fleas are not just a nuisance, and pretty gross, severe infestations can cause serious health problems in pets. Intense itching, skin lesions, weight loss, anemia and restlessness have all been reported. In addition, fleas transmit tapeworms and are known to carry diseases like murine typhus, tularemia and even the plague. Luckily, this innovative flea trap can help keep infestations at bay.
The Terro Refillable Flea Trap captures fleas by taking advantage of their instinctual attraction to light and heat, which they perceive as a warm-blooded meal. When the fleas approach, they will be trapped by the "SuperGrabber" glue on the sticky pad underneath the light and perish. As an added benefit, other unwanted insects like spiders or roaches may also be trapped on the sticky pad.
- Detects and controls indoor flea problems.
- Can draw fleas out of carpet and upholstery.
- For indoor use in homes, garages, kennels and more.
- 360° access allows fleas to enter trap from any direction.
- Additional pads are sold separately in packages of 3.
This product is only effective on adult fleas and cannot clear up an infestation on its own. To achieve full control, the use of flea shampoos and sprays, Beneficial Nematodes and other products that repel or kill is recommended. Please refer to our Fleas page for more thorough information on flea control.
