Fleas are small parasites of a few millimeters in size that prefer to infest animals. They can become visible as small black spots, for example on light-colored bedding. Fleas lead to small bites on the host they infest.
This is due to their function as bloodsuckers. Typical here are stings in rows, which are caused by repeated biting of the fleas. This often leads to strong itching of the stitches.
