Meat (either raw or cooked) will attract houseflies fairly quickly. And corn on the cob that has had the corn eaten off it is an excellent bait for the housefly.
Dirtiness of any kind, and it should be treated really quick, they may contain diseases.
a source of food - warmblooded - animals or rodents
Things that are sweet such as candy
Body warmth and movement
Fleas are attracted to warmth and fur. As the rats passed by a place where fleas were gathered, they hopped into the rats' fur and burrowed in.
Keeping people warm in cold winter days and/or attracting fleas to keep off people. (Fleas are attracted to warmth.)
It was believed that the bugs (fleas, etc) would be attracted to the pelt as opposed to the person.
Water is easily frightened.. Just make sudden movements and you will see it shake... no kidding.... So, fleas are attracted to fear.. Thats why dogs have them. right? So, it stands to reason that if you pour chlorine on a dog with fleas, the fleas will die. Works the same with water... Fun fact... If you water fleas they grow up to be fireflies... true story.
Your pomerianin scratches its fur because the fleas are attached to it like the sun is attracted to humans wearing black.
bed bugs are microscopic so i doubt that they like bird seed No they feed on a host (blood) like fleas 7 are actually not microscopic, they are bigger than fleas & you can easily see adults with the naked eye.
If they bite you they can cause itching and irritation depending on where they were before they got on to you they can also transfer disease from other people or animals to you. For example the plague was transfered by fleas from rats to humans.
The Venus flytrap is an insectivorous plant. It eats only insects which get attracted to the nectar present in it such as fleas, bees, ants and other insects.
This answer is wrong Because there was lots of fleas who had the bubonic disease and the fleas lived on the rats then the rats all got killed (in Britain) because everytime a flea bit a rat the rat would die and the fleas were getting hungry so they moved on to humans. The streets were used as sewers in the towns as many people were very poor back then so it attracted alot of rats with the fleas. and when the fleas started to bite people they started to die. The plague stopped in Gravesend Kent which is why it is called gravesend. or so that's what i got told!

Fleas are smaller than gnats are very thin. These flying bugs are attracted to the white metal frame on above ground pools.
I do not have fleas, but it is possible for humans to fleas. Usually though fleas stick to dogs and cats etc.
Fleas don't usually live in human hair but they sure do bite. So if you're living with a cat who has fleas be ready to wake up in the morning with red bite marks all over your skin. Sometimes fleas do live in human hair but as soon as they find an animal body they go there. Fleas produce 50 eggs a day and these eggs get into the carpets and floorboards and can hatch up to 13 years later ! So there are plenty of fleas to come on to humans too.
