Replace the glue trap the next day until the fleas are gone.
It also works for crickets and other bugs.

Thank’s for posting that, I will be making some of these traps, I think I have fleas on my office, yesterday after lunch I had some itching on my leg and noticed several red spots, I thought I had been bitten by a mosquito, it looked to be a famished one because I had 5 bites.
When I arrived home I had itching again in my leg, so I looked and now I had 7 bites in one leg and 5 on another, and I started thinking this is no mosquito bites this looks like fleas, and since I seem to be bitten while at work they hat least are not in my home. Today I whore pants hoping to protect my legs, but the fabric rubbing against the bites makes me itch, I had to put on flip fops because all my shoes rub against the bites on my ankles.
I don’t have pets, we never had animals on the office and my boss also doesn’t have pets so not sure how they appeared.
