The adult female usually lays eggs each day after locating a host, producing around 15 eggs per day.
The eggs are ivory white, oval and approximately 0.5mm long. The eggs drop to the ground within hours. In reality this usually happens when the animal makes sudden movements. Flea eggs will therefore cluster in these '''hot spots''' around the house. These areas should be paid particular attention when treating the environment in the case of a flea infestation.
