Fleas Are Bad For You and Your Pets

fleaFleas are one of the more common and annoying pests that you can encounter in your home. They are usually associated with those that own pets such as dogs and cats, and often attach themselves to these animals while they are outside. Once they have hitched a ride on your pets, they will enter your home and start an infestation of their own, often living in carpets and on furniture. They will then survive by biting and feeding on the blood of both the animals in the house and the humans. Their bites leave behind itchy red welts, and can even spread some blood-borne diseases. With this in mind, getting rid of fleas should be a high priority if your house is infested.

How to Get Rid of Fleas in Your House and Yard

There’s no doubt that if you’re unlucky enough to have your pet bring these uninvited guests into your home that you will want to get rid of fleas as quickly as possible. Here are a few of the products and steps you will need to be aware of in order to rid your home and yard of this troublesome pest.

•    Cleaning Is An Important First Step

This is an often overlooked portion of the process of getting rid of fleas, however it will make the rest of your efforts much more effective in the long term. The best method of cleaning is vacuuming the carpet in the rooms where the infestation is ongoing, this is due to the fact that these bugs can easily make themselves at home in the fibers of carpets, and often lay their eggs in amongst the same fibers. Therefore you will want to thoroughly vacuum all of the carpets in the home before applying any flea killer. This will eliminate many of the adult fleas and provide better results when the flea killer products are used.

•    Flea Spray Is Great For Flea Control

The mainstay of flea elimination is flea spray. Most of the products aimed at the elimination of fleas are based on a type of pesticides known as pyrethroids, which are safe for use around the home, although pets and children should be kept out of the treated area until the products dry as a precaution.

•    How To Kill Fleas Using Other Methods

Although flea killer spray is the number one tool in the fight against flea infestations, there are other methods that can help you kill the insects. For instance you might want to consider natural flea control using products such as diatomaceous earth, which is completely non-toxic and will blend in well to the carpet fibers where the insects hide. Another flea removal tool to consider is known as a flea IGR, or insect growth regulator. These products are designed to interfere with the reproductive cycle of the insects, making the current generation of adults the last one that survives. Any of these products can be combined with the previously mentioned methods.
