Imagine getting home with your family nice and relaxed from vacation and after setting your bags down, you begin to feel a little itch on your arm, and your neck, and then your legs. Little did you know that while your family was on vacation, a few pesky explorer fleas founded a new colony in your house, and it’s growing fast with little flea pilgrims everywhere. Now they’re launching their miniature flea revolution against your actual family members, including your dog that was also on vacation with you. Welcome home!

Ok, so you leave the house ASAP, rid everyone of fleas, and rent a hotel room down the street. Once everyone has calmed down and called dibs on the sleeping arrangements, you call pest control. No worries. The experts are going to help you fight off this infestation! After a few days of vacationing in your own town, you stop by the house to see if the coast is clear. Then, you’re faced with this reality: your pest control guy is an idiot! He tried to treat the flea problem by laying down a bunch of mouse traps! 😮 Not only are the fleas still there, but they’re flourishing! Even industrializing with little flea cities, factories, and local governments! But hey, at least you don’t have mice! 👍

Welcome to the frustration of doctors everywhere. Patients are constantly asking doctors to treat flea infestations with mouse traps.
