Asked Question Question: We
have a cat and dog, its the cat that is the main problem.
We are fleaing him and vacuuming the carpets but there
still seem to be fleas. Can you please name some products
to kill the fleas?
Answer: If you taken steps
to control fleas on the pets and you continue to see
problems, it is a sign that infestation has gotten into
your rug or flooring. This requires the use of residual
sprays inside your home to the rugs to control future
emerging fleas. In may be in your best interest to try
a professional exterminator at this stage. I would only
recommend that a licensed pesticide applicator use residuals
inside the home.
Question: We have sand fleas.
What is the best way to get rid of them if you have
allergy problems with most insecticides?
Answer: Sand flea is another
name for a cat or dog flea. If you do not have a dog
or cat and you have no history of a pet being in your
home you may want to check for a raccoon in the chimney
or a stray animal living close to your home. All fleas
have an animal host and humans are rarely the primary
host. Once you locate the animal host you need to take
steps to get the pet on a flea program or the wild animal
away from your home. The next step is to thoroughly
clean and vacuum any areas inside your home which the
animal occupies. The last step would be to develop a
treatment for the infested areas inside or outside your
home with the help of your local exterminator. You should
always feel comfortable with their methods. Growth regulators
are just one example of a material which provides the
maximum safety and effectiveness.
