The intentionâof the city, the architect, and Rooftopâs partnersâhas always been to open a chef-driven restaurant. But when the sun sinks and the roof retracts, a thirsty public has other ideas. A rapprochement is in the offing, but itâs clear that fun diningânot fine diningâwill be as formal as Rooftop ever gets.
Before becoming adult fleas, the larvae transform into pupae within a silk-like cocoon. Pupae remain inside the cocoon for 2 to 4 weeks, sometimes longer. The cocoon is resistant to insecticides and this is why some adult fleas are seen for an extended period, even after the home and pet are treated.
In appearance, flea larvae can be up to Â¼-inch long and are white (almost see-through) and legless. Larvae make up about 35 percent of the flea population in the average household. If conditions are favorable, the larvae will spin cocoons in about 5-20 days of hatching from their eggs.This leads to the next life stage, called the cocoon or pupae stage.The pupae stage of the flea life cycle accounts for about 10 percent of the flea population in a home.f conditions are favorable, the larvae will spin cocoons in about 5-20 days of hatching from their eggs.
