Getting Rid Of Fleas -Dog & Cat Health

Austin Fairley, August 28, 2021

Cats have the natural ability to hunt, fight, and play in the most flea infested places. Cat fleas can be brought in from under a house or an abandoned complex were fleas are patiently lurking. These parasites simply hitch a ride back to your home and there, they multiply. Dog and cat health can be compromised by fleas and protecting them is vital in the relentless battle against the parasites. The same techniques you use to fight cat fleas can be used in your yard and home. You can launch your attack by starting with a basic clean, just like you do for yard and home protection.

Combs – If adult fleas have trenched themselves in the cat fur your most efficient tool is a flea comb. Combing has several advantages, it removes adult fleas thereby reducing the amount of insecticide needed and two, combined with a alcohol or soap solution can kill adult fleas on contact. Adult fleas prefer thick fur so they can accumulate around the neck, front and sides of the tail.

Solutions – Shampoo is an obvious choice to drown and chemically eradicate your unwanted trespassers. A soapy bath will soften light insect infestations after your pet has been brushed. Allow shampoo to soak for 5-10 minutes before washing.

IGRs – These are available as pills, sprays, spot-ons, or pills. IGRs target larvae and egg development. IGR’s cause of death is that adult fleas become incapable of reproducing. Eggs die before hatching and larvae are killed before maturation. Only the adult fleas survive the IGR’s effects are the problem. This problem can be solved by using IGR’s in conjunction with mild insecticides to kill adult fleas. CLEARNET cat net

Enclosures – You can choose the location that your dog or cat roams after leaving the safety of your home. Cat and dog cages (or enclosures) are usually built in sunny areas where fleas are less likely. You should also provide shade, but avoid moist areas that can be a breeding ground for parasites. Your pet will be safe from fleas if they live in a well-kept yard.

There are many flea-killing products. How do you distinguish between the many acronyms like IGR’s and the jargon of chemistry such as pyriproxyfen? Not to worry I have done the legwork for you and you will need to do is read. This article is broken into three brief, concise chapters. Chapter I will briefly describe the flea and its life cycle, vital to understanding how you can kill the buggers. Chapter II and Chapter 3 provide information on how to protect your home, garden, and pets from flea infestation. The Chapter III ends with a link to the products that you will need to rid your home of these parasites. We’ll start with an incredible fact. How many eggs were you able to say fleas laid?
