| leasa - I just went out with a flashlight to see if the little black things were still there...which is where a neighbor found me. She told me they are called "snow fleas." I looked at a couple of online articles w/photos and made a positive ID, although the ones I'm seeing are very small, 1/64" perhaps. I thought we were in for the wicked flea infestation of the century, but it turns out these are good fleas. I even dosed the poor cat with flea stuff, which he & I both hate. Case closed...! |
