There was a nuisance - your favorite pussy, walking along the street, picked up fleas and brought them home. There is little poor bitten animal, so insects also attacked the owners! And what to do, how to get fleas out of the house? Consider all the options in more detail.
If you find in your house such a misfortune as fleas, keep in mind that you need to get rid of these parasites as soon as possible. Insects breed very quickly, so if you miss the time, then you can start moving around the apartment exclusively on stools. And this does not help, because fleas are able to jump to a height of one and a half meters.
To begin, consider folk tips on
how to remove fleas from home.
First of all, you should thoroughly wash everything, especially the skirting boards, disinfect the carpets - usually adults lay larvae in them.
And most importantly: before you start to remove
fleas in the house, they need to be destroyed at your pet, who dragged the infection into the house, and take care of prevention, for example, buy a special collar.
To scare away fleas, it is recommended to use wormwood, its pungent smell can scare away not only them, but also other parasites. But wormwood cannot destroy harmful insects, so it is more likely to be suitable for preventive measures after fleas are hatched.
Another recommended plant is Caucasian chamomile, the pyrethrins contained in it are able to completely destroy parasites. True, there is one significant minus - to completely get rid of fleas, you will need an incredible amount of this plant. Therefore, sometimes using this method is not very convenient.
So, it remains to fight with special drugs. Let's look at ways
to get fleas out of the house using chemicals.
"Dichlorvos" - perhaps the most common remedy for fleas. Of course, it is undesirable to use it in the house due to its strong toxicity. But if you don’t have to choose, all safety measures must be followed, otherwise you can get acute poisoning right up to death.
There is nothing complicated about how to get fleas out of the house using Dichlorvos. With a directed stream of the preparation, skirting boards, corners, floors, walls, etc. are carefully sprayed. Processing is carried out in a tightly closed room. 3 hours after the procedure, the apartment or house must be carefully ventilated.
In no case should you use such a drug to
destroy fleas in animals; they simply cannot tolerate this procedure!
Currently, there are drugs that are made on the basis of pyrethroids (very toxic substances for insects). Such products are safe for humans and animals. These drugs remain effective for up to 30 days. But it is best to repeat the processing of the room after two weeks. The fact is that, when deciding how to deal with fleas at home, many forget about insect larvae that are very resistant to various poisons. Repeated processing will help to completely destroy the newly hatched parasites.
