Here's a more detailed breakdown:
* Mammals: Fleas are commonly found on dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, mice, squirrels, and other mammals.
* Birds: Fleas can also infest birds, including chickens, pigeons, and wild birds.
While fleas prefer to live on their hosts, they can also be found in the environment, especially in areas where their hosts frequent, such as:
* Carpets and rugs: Fleas can lay their eggs in carpets and rugs, where they can survive for extended periods.
* Beds and furniture: Fleas may also infest bedding and furniture, especially if they have been in contact with infested pets.
* Outdoor areas: Fleas can also live in gardens, yards, and other outdoor areas where their hosts may spend time.
