Frequently asked questions
When does flea season start in Sheridan?
Around early May in a typical year, once local averages hold around 50°F. A warm spring pulls it earlier — prevention shouldn't wait for the calendar.
Is flea season in Sheridan different from the rest of Wyoming?
Not meaningfully — Sheridan tracks the Wyoming statewide estimate closely. Both are climate-based estimates, so treat the edges as fuzzy, not exact.
Do dogs in Sheridan need prevention outside flea season?
Yes — vets recommend year-round parasite prevention regardless of the local calendar. Indoor fleas ignore the weather entirely, and ticks in Wyoming are typically active late March to early November, a longer window than fleas get.
