Indorex Flea Spray

Product Information

A flea bomb is a smoke treatment that kills any fleas in the area once activated, and you may need several, one for each room of the house. Make sure any cupboards containing clothes are also treated, hot washed or disposed of too, and any cushions and soft furnishings are treated. You will need to remove yourself and any plants and animals (including fish) from the home while the flea bomb works and clears from the air- maybe a good opportunity to take your pets to the groomers for a flea bath! Flea sprays However, fleas can also thrive in winter inside your home, as you will be using central heating and blankets to create a warm environment for yourself. Unfortunately, fleas also thrive in the warmth. A bit of a rogue product on the list. Not a spray, bomb or fogger like the others, but rather a natural, electronic pet mimic (which is more sensible than it sounds).

Perhaps the most widely available form, and the one which is least likely to disrupt your home life too much. They come in aerosol or trigger options and can be sprayed anywhere that is needed, as and when needed. Sprays usually kill fleas at all life stages and can be used as often as needed. They’re best for targetted action as opposed to a room-wide solution, for instance spraying directly onto bedding and carpets. Fogger Sprays There is up to 12 months of environmental flea control in a single can, 1 can of Indorex® treats an average of 79 square metres, 3 bedroom home. If you are worried about these issues, opt for a treatment that doesn’t contain the ingredient, but when used safely and following strict guidelines, it shouldn’t have a negative effect on animals. Always air a room fully after application. Natural vs Synthetic flea treatments – which is best? It contains Margosa, Citronella, Eucalyptus and Peppermint. These all have their own job and can repel fleas as they don’t like the smells, so is a bit more humane. A flea spray can also be used as a preventative measure every so often, such as monthly at the same time as the reapplication of spot-on topical treatments for your pet. Summer is a particularly vital time to protect your home when the weather is hotter and fleas are more prominent in the heat. This is particularly relevant if you take your dog on walks in the grass or your cat is outdoors.Without getting rid of the eggs, larvae and pupae, your pet will never be free. Did you know that a female flea can lay up to 50 eggs every single day? With a lifespan of three months, that is a lot of kids.

A type of fogger, that you use as a candle as opposed to spraying. This releases smoke, which may be better for some people who can’t have liquid particles around or are worried about staining from liquids. Electronic Devices Do note, though, that this product doesn't provide an immediate effect as some of its counterparts and you'll have to wait for some time to see the first improvements. And if necessary, you can disinfect your living area one more time in 7 days. The ARDAP long-term flea spray will keep your household free from many annoying insects for quite a while. Suitable for outdoor use, it is a perfect choice for those who want to disinsect not only their homes but also an adjacent area. The most obvious indication of a significant amount of fleas living in your home or on your pet is being bitten. Either seeing fleas jump, feeling the bite and the associated itchy red lump which is produced, or watching your pet scratching and itching to distraction are usually indicative of a significant flea problem. To proceed, the spray is safe for use at any part of your home. You can sprinkle it over your carpets and furniture without the risk of greasy stains or even sanitize your pets' bowls. The only unpleasant thing is that this solution has a pretty strong smell. That’s why it is recommended to thoroughly air your living area after the application.Before applying any of the above, you should remove all washable surfaces like cushion covers and bedding and wash on high heat for the best results. A form of fogger, flea bombs are often more on the professional scale versus spray foggers – for those who really have tried everything else.

The most effective way to protect your home from flea infestation is to use award winning Indorex® Defence household flea spray. It is sprayed directly onto carpets, rugs, flooring, skirting boards and other potential flea hideouts. Best used in conjunction with applying a good quality spot-on on all dogs and cats in the home, breaking the flea life cycle will wipe out the next generation of fleas and protect your home from infestations for up to a year. It is very toxic to cats, who cannot tolerate the therapeutic doses made for dogs. It remains much longer in cat organs compared to dogs and can be fatal in larger doses, so if you have cats, increase the recommended wait times before you allow them into the room. In the vast majority of cases, sprays that can be used directly on surfaces are best and should be where you start the fight. Fleas are not airborne creatures, so while they are designed to disperse droplets, airborne foggers can be a step too far in most cases. Fleas are unpleasant for pets and humans and can, unfortunately, have a relatively long life cycle. Therefore, finding a product that really works is vital. There are various forms of home flea treatments, and you may find that some suit lifestyles or levels of severity better than others: SpraysBefore using Indorex® Defence Household Flea Spray ensure that all of your doors and windows are closed. You should remove your pets from the area to be treated and ensure all your pet’s bedding is washed on a hot cycle. In simple terms, you have to be patient. Maybe not what you want to hear if you’re being bitten every night, but patience is key to eradicating the issue. The sprinkle-on formula acts as a carpet cleaner, being left to work its way in before needing to be vacuumed. It kills fleas and larvae and also absorbs pet odours to leave your room and furnishings smelling pleasant which is an added bonus.

Treat your pet effectively using a cat flea treatment or dog flea treatment, wash soft furnishings on a very high heat and regularly vacuum and steam carpets and surfaces which you cannot wash. Because fleas can’t be killed in their pupae life stage, they must become adults before the treatment will work on them. This can take anywhere from a few days to months, so while most products will still work for up to 12 months, you may need to reapply regularly and simply wait. However, you should see a definite improvement within a week or so. When should I use flea repellants in the home? The team here at Petz also have experience using flea products, like many pet owners. Having used the Virbac Spray and Acclaim Household Spray within the team regularly and over some years, we knew they had to be our biggest recommendations. They both got to work fast, and while they can’t work alone, we noticed a clear reduction in fleas from the spray vs just vacuuming alone. We looked for products that are effective first and foremost, but also are good value for money, can be applied to large areas and are easy to use. Types of home flea treatments Several people have called this spray the best around, and we also found the Virbac Indorex spray to not only be one of the easiest to use, but also one of the best at actually eradicating the full problem. In our experience, the smell wasn’t overpowering and soon disappeared. It also worked to stop the problem within a few days.
