You may wonder how fleas transfer from one place to another or from one pet to another. Do fleas fly or do they jump? Well, better be informed that fleas do not fly because they are not equipped to do so. Instead, these blood-sucking pests leap off the ground and move onto their targets.
In fact, fleas are regarded as insects that are good jumpers. Some engineers around the world have tried to copy the jumping skills of these tiny bugs and incorporate them into small robots that leap.
So, how come these fleas can jump so well? Thanks to the mechanism these bugs built in their bodies. Such a mechanism helps fleas catapult themselves and jump as far or as high as they can. Fleas have six legs plus their hindlegs that help with their jumping.
Obviously, fleas have good jumping skills, but such competency puts your pet at risk.
