Good day. I remember how in my student days I wanted to make a mini-shelter for homeless animals with my girlfriend.
Youthful maximalism led us to the fact that a rented apartment was chosen as the place. At first, everything went well.
But then the neighbors began to complain - they had to curtail their activities. And also quickly get rid of fleas that fell into the shelter with animals. We quickly succeeded. Want to know how to process an apartment from fleas? In the material below I will dwell on this issue in detail.

Destruction of fleas in the apartment
The appearance of fleas in an apartment is an extremely annoying nuisance, causing problems for all households. They can get to you in several ways:
- brought pets that were on the street;
- to the apartments of the lower floors - from the basement.
Not everyone knows that there are many varieties of fleas. For example, earthenware is absolutely safe for apartments, they are harmful for plants, therefore only farmers are prevented from living. But most often Ctenocephalides felis, Pulex irritans, Xenopsylla cheo, Spilopsyllus cuniculi, Ctenocephalides canis are found in apartments - these are the species that bite dogs, cats and rats and can bite people.
Please note that the destruction of fleas in an apartment or house should be 100% if disinsection is carried out poorly, unpleasant guests will multiply again. If you need help in the fight against fleas, professionals will quickly clean your home from pests.
Stages
Preparation, which includes cleaning food, utensils, children's toys and all household items that cannot be taken by the current solution. If the apartment has an aquarium, it must be tightly closed and disconnected from the outlet. In the room where fleas are disinfected, children, pets should not be.
Direct disinfection flea apartments using a specially designed solution sprayed from a spray bottle onto walls and floors. Since flea disinsection is carried out exclusively by high-quality imported drugs, they instantly die.
Room cleaning. First you need to ventilate the apartment well, and only then start washing off the product, and always with rubber gloves: the drug is not safe for the skin. Note that it is advised not to rinse the product from baseboards and walls, since the fight against fleas with the help of the drug will occur for another two weeks.
Undoubtedly, it is worth entrusting such a responsible event as flea processing exclusively to professionals, and only in this case you can be sure of a high-quality, safe and long-term result.
What to do if everyone started to itch
Noticed that not only the pet is scratched, but also all family members? Do not know how to properly handle a flea home? Processed, but the parasites survived? You only need to know a few subtleties and the "bloodsucker rebellion" will be crushed!
Parasite development cycle
Almost all bloodsucking parasites traveling on cats / dogs can live without a carrier. The most meticulous of them are fleas, which are successfully settled in carpets, bathrooms, basements, etc.
Fleas are divided by species, differ in size, color of the shell, the cyclical reproduction and maturation of eggs, there is one common feature - they bite!
Knowing the enemy in the face, fighting him is easier! All insects breed by laying eggs, which can wait up to their "finest hour" up to 373 days! One flea in its life can lay up to 500 eggs, about 3-8 pieces at a time.
Human, dog or cat, rat or mouse can live in the house, and if you are very lucky - gophers and groundhog fleas. To combat parasites, their appearance is not particularly important ... but, you need to understand that:
- It is impossible to destroy all the eggs of fleas - they do not eat and there is no definite period for their “hatching," so the face will come out of the egg only when favorable conditions come.
- “Freshly hatched” fleas are also difficult to destroy, since they lead a secretive lifestyle. A larva that has not yet molted does not need to drink blood, it is enough to have at its side the remains of the vital activity (excrement) of adult fleas. These black grains contain the remains of ready-to-eat, caked and semi-digested blood.
- Adult flea bites, jumps on your feet and on pets.
- The warmer the room, the faster the flea eggs hatch, and adults make new masonry.
Processing algorithm
There are a lot of flea remedies, but not all cans and powders work. Experience shows that the advertised "Dichlorvos" such as Raid, Raptor and the like are absolutely powerless against bloodsucking parasites, and they rarely cause inconvenience to cockroaches. You can get rid of fleas indoors if you follow the basic logic:
- "Flush" all animals is the first step, otherwise the parasites will again jump to the floor after processing the room. In season, animals should be treated every 3-4 months, for ticks, it is advisable to inspect dogs daily.
- To carry out cleaning is not about “tearing out” every millimeter of the house, but you need to vacuum and wash the floor well.
- To process the premises, having previously vacated the house from children, animals and relatives. Skirtings and all cracks in the flooring are treated with special generosity.
- Repeat the treatment after 10-14 days to prevent the reproduction of “newly hatched” fleas.
The choice of the means by which the room will be processed must be done on the basis of its composition, not the name, not the advertisement, not the bright labels on the package! The composition of the product should include two or more insecticides.
What to process?
There is a very useful thing for the household - a steam cleaner! This miracle machine, or rather the steam that it pumps, will kill fleas and destroy their eggs.The plus is that steaming is absolutely safe, minus - you need to get into all the bins and crevices.
Having monitored online stores of household appliances, I was convinced that 30-40% of buyers buy steam devices to get rid of fleas and ... everyone is very happy.
Not many have 150-500 free y. e. on the hands, so that the insecticides for spraying the room remain “in the top”. During processing, we pay special attention to carpets, baseboards, front doors, basements (if any). It is advisable to process all the walls 60–70 cm in height, but first make sure that no stains appear on the wallpaper.
The instructions for all of the above drugs say that they are safe for people and animals if they do not get into the mouth or are not drunk. In fact, hundreds of cases of insecticide vapor poisoning are known. When processing carpets and upholstered furniture, it is worth waiting for complete drying.
For processing animals, it is better to use more advanced products (drops, shampoos). Wash your hands thoroughly and follow safety precautions using gloves, a respiratory mask.
It is impractical (expensive) to process the room, but if fleas settled in a closet with towels or a children's room, then there are no special alternatives.
Young fighter course: extermination of fleas in an apartment
Among the various insects that haunt the living quarters, there may well be fleas. Their bites are very painful and by no means safe for health, since they are carriers of infections leading to dangerous diseases.
There are many different jokes and jokes about the way a person and fleas get along, but this is not a joke thing. And the expulsion of fleas from a house or apartment is a very troublesome event.
Without knowing the enemy in the "face" - it is impossible to find a way to fight him. In order to make sure that you have got fleas, and not other biting insects, summarize the following observations:
- Find out how they move (fleas jump, and high, and far),
- Where exactly on the body are the bite places (fleas bite mainly legs),
- Try to catch at least a few individuals and examined through a magnifying glass, compare with a flea photograph in a search engine or book.
After making sure that it is 100% fleas, collect information about habitats, habits and methods of their destruction. Conduct preliminary preparatory work and proceed to destruction. So, what do you need to know for a successful flea control outcome?
Likely habitats
It is necessary to find out in what places the fleas are most trying to live in the room and how they "hide". Having a pet will become an additional constant source of fleas, but about removing them from him at the end of the article. Now the emphasis is on how to rid a flea house.
They love places like this:
- bed,
- Palace
- Stuffed Toys,
- slots
- skirting boards
- washing
- furniture,
- pet habitats.
Based on the foregoing, it is easier to say where they are not in the house. Therefore, you will have to destroy them at once in all rooms, and it is desirable to quickly and simultaneously. Due to their fertility, partial measures will not give the desired result.
Flea Treatment - Your Arsenal
At the first stage of the fight against fleas, a powerful vacuum cleaner will become an indispensable assistant. With its help, it is necessary to clean the fleecy and tissue surfaces (they, besides the fleas themselves, can contain their eggs).Upon completion, the vacuum cleaner must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. If this procedure is treated in bad faith, you will have an incubator of a new generation of fleas in the house.
After cleaning the premises with a vacuum cleaner, it is necessary to do wet cleaning of the house with disinfectants. To do this, in addition to rags and mops, personal protective equipment: a respiratory mask and rubber gloves.
The final stage of the destruction of fleas in the house will be the treatment of all places of accumulation of these insects with aerosol disinsection equipment. For this, all insecticides marked "for the destruction of creeping insects" are suitable. Dichlorvos is also great.
To avoid poisoning or allergic reactions, carefully read the composition of the insecticide.
Aerosol products have a consumption rate of one spray per 10 square meters. m. Therefore, pre-calculate according to your meter the number of cartridges. Because the entire procedure for the destruction of fleas must be carried out in one go.
Microgranulated professional products:
- Sinusan
- Biorin
- Effective Ultra
- Empire
- Chlorpyrimark.
They are more effective and safe for controlling fleas, but they are designed for wholesale buyers who are professionally engaged in cleaning insects from premises.
Preparing a room for an upcoming event
The necessary procedures for the preliminary preparation of the premises for disinfestation include:
- Thorough wet cleaning
- Food must be securely packed and hidden,
- If the house or apartment has an aquarium, reptiles or birds carry them away from the premises,
- On dogs, cats wear an anti-flea collar.
- After completing all flea control procedures, ventilate the premises no sooner than two hours later. Sanitary cleaning is advisable to do after a few days.
Strategic War Plan: Room Processing
Actions to be taken when fighting fleas in a house:
- Take out and knock out blankets, pillows, mattresses. Then hang them in the sun or treat them with a steam generator.
- Wash personal belongings, soft toys, and fabric items on which disinfectants could get.
- Thoroughly wash the floor with a strong disinfectant and all surfaces that allow wet cleaning.
- Beds, sofas, carpets - vacuum.
- Aerosol insecticide thoroughly treat all rooms (especially cracks, baseboards and other similar places).
- After completion of work, close the room and go out into the fresh air for at least two to three hours.
- Upon return, ventilate the premises!
- To clear working surfaces from possible hit of pesticides and only then to unpack food, etc. stuff, bring in an aquarium.
- Do not clean for several days.
Pet Processing
In addition to cleaning the house, it is necessary to remove fleas from pets. They create a lot of inconvenience to pets, because they are crowded in places inaccessible to the paws: behind the ears, on the withers, on the stomach of the croup.
For this purpose, various preparations are sold in pet shops in a wide assortment: drops at the withers, shampoos, pills, collars.
Dates of complete deliverance. Over the duration of the used disinfectant and insect preparations, even if new insects hatch from the eggs, they will die, but it is possible that they will have time to lay eggs.
Therefore, after a week or two, it is advisable to repeat the entire procedure for the removal of fleas.
Wisdom of past generations - folk remedies
This problem is not new and previous generations, not having such a huge amount of household chemicals, nevertheless, found a way to deal with fleas. We got such methods:
- The use of concentrated infusion of herbs: eucalyptus, tansy, wormwood, mint, which drove out fleas with a sharp and unpleasant smell.
- Fresh pine sawdust has the same effect.
- Baking soda
- A mixture of garlic and brewer's yeast is effective not only in expelling fleas, but also expels everyone in the room.
Alternative methods - help from professionals
Having turned to professionals for help, you can avoid many troublesome jobs, as well as the risk of poisoning by the means used.
If this option is impossible for some reason, then the only way out of the situation is to cope with the problem ourselves. In this case, one can only wish success and victory!
How can I treat a home from bloodsuckers
It is difficult to imagine a modern person who would not seek to create coziness and comfort in his own home. But there can be no talk of any cosiness if small parasitic creatures called “fleas” settle in the living quarters.
Even the smallest flea, in spite of the fact that it can’t fly, is able to overcome a considerable distance in a jump, so the parasites very quickly fill up even the largest living space, and soon begin to feel full owners.
Parasite danger
If even one specimen of a blood-sucking insect is found in the house, you need to get rid of such an infection as soon as possible, because a flea bite can cause the development of very serious diseases:
- pseudotuberculosis;
- listeriosis;
- tularemia.
Moreover, if the child becomes the so-called victim of insects, the consequence of the bite can be a severe allergic reaction, which, in turn, can provoke anaphylactic shock.
Processing the premises is necessary immediately, since harmful parasites, among other things, rapidly multiply and grow.
How bloodsucking insects can get into the room
Fleas can enter a house or apartment in several ways:
- on the wool of animals freely walking along the street;
- on the sole of shoes or on outer clothing;
- from the neighboring apartment, through the open door, because we have already noted that parasites can jump very high;
- from the basement or attic, if rats are inside, the most insidious flea carriers.
Tell pets about unwanted "lodgers", in particular cats and dogs. After all, it is in the fur of fluffy parasites that start up first, and little pets, hoping to get rid of them on their own, begin to eagerly swell themselves and even whine mournfully.
Getting rid of parasites
In order to once and for all remove bloodsucking insects from the premises, you should first of all learn how to treat the apartment from fleas in order not only to achieve the maximum effect, but also not to harm the health of the residents.
And if at least one individual remains in the house, you will have to start the fight anew, and very soon. So what to do in such a situation, because you do not want to use potent and toxic agents to kill insects, especially for processing the apartment in which the child lives.
The way out of this situation can be found quite simply - choosing a completely non-toxic and highly effective drug that can quickly destroy fleas, for example, by treating the premises with Delcid, which blocks nerve impulses of parasites.
However, one should not forget that even the most effective remedy will not help get rid of the blood-sucking "tenants" if the owners do not initially remove the fleas of their pet hair.
This procedure is quite simple, because all that is required from the owner is to thoroughly redeem a cat or dog with a special shampoo, and after the coat has completely dried out, put on a special anti-flea collar that can protect the animal from annoying parasites for 3 months.
Having taken care of the pet, you can safely begin to process the apartment with the highly effective drug Deltsid in the following sequence:
- First of all, care should be taken to ensure that there are no people or animals in the room. So that no one could interfere with the production process, and direct contact with the drug, despite its safety, can not be useful, both for humans and animals.
- Next, you should try to take out carpets, rugs, pillows and so on from the apartment, having previously vacuumed them carefully and not forgetting to clean the vacuum cleaner after cleaning.
- In the next step, you need to properly dilute Delcid for processing. To do this, you should carefully read the instructions, according to which 3.75 ml of the emulsion must be diluted in 1 liter of water at room temperature. To process the premises with a total area of 100 square meters. m, it will take from 10 to 12 liters of diluted emulsion.
- It is necessary to process not only the floor, but also the walls, rising to a height of 1.6 meters, not forgetting that fleas are excellent “jumpers”.
- The place where the pet prefers to relax, as well as the cracks and gaps both in the floor and on the wall, should be especially carefully treated.
It is more convenient to carry out the treatment with a spray gun, but if there is no such device, an ordinary soft rag is also suitable. Experts recommend wet cleaning and rinsing off the flea remedy after 12-14 days.
A second procedure, which is carried out according to a similar scheme, will be needed if the infection was massive, and many individuals were able to hide in secluded places. At the end of the treatment, you must thoroughly wash your face and hands under running water, with soap.
Destruction of fleas in the apartment
Flea disinfection is necessary immediately as soon as these small harmful insects were found in the house. Fleas are more dangerous than other domestic insects in that their livelihoods are directly related to parasitization on humans and domestic animals.
What are these insects?
Fleas are small wingless insects that mainly parasitize on mammals and birds. Their reproduction directly depends on the host. Some species breed throughout the year, others only at certain times.
Fleas do not need household waste and waste products to feed, because they are blood-sucking insects.
In the world there are a huge number of species of these pests. Here are the most common ones:
- human flea;
- dog flea;
- cat flea;
- rat flea;
- house mouse flea;
- earthen flea and others.
Fleas are dangerous in that they are carriers of various diseases, including plague and rat typhus. Plague germs persist in the body of an insect all their lives, in the land of germs last for several months.
Fleas leave bites on the human body that are concentrated on the legs, cause itching, the bite site turns red. Some types of insects can penetrate human skin and cause ulcers.
Insects usually enter a room with pets or with rats and mice.Ways to combat fleas depend on the type of insect and population size.
The most effective way is considered to be the destruction of pests by specialists, because professional treatment of the premises will ensure complete disposal of fleas and prevent their reappearance when following the recommendations.
The destruction of domestic fleas
The fight against domestic fleas involves the mandatory processing of domestic animals, the destruction of rodents, and the simultaneous processing of mink rodents. The room is cleaned, when washing floors add soap or detergent, close the cracks in the walls, floors and behind skirting boards.
To quickly destroy insects, you can use aerosol cans. After that, the room is treated with residual insecticides in the form of a powder or suspension. But such a method of fighting fleas in an apartment does not guarantee their complete destruction and that fleas do not appear again.
Elimination of earthen fleas
If you live on the ground floor or in a cottage, then in the spring it is likely that you and your household will be attacked by earthen fleas. In a warm and humid microclimate, fleas breed well. They can get into the room from the basement or cellar.
You need to start the fight against earthen fleas immediately, as they are the same carriers of infections as other types of fleas.
Successful fight
To withdraw fleas means to protect yourself and your loved ones. But you need to know how to do it right and, most importantly, effectively. The best option is to turn to professionals for help.

Disinfection Algorithm: Proven Methods
The appearance of fleas in their home can not be detected immediately by the owners, but only if the consequences of their presence are detected - skin irritation, rash, bites.
The processing of an apartment from fleas is carried out with the help of special chemical preparations and some folk remedies.
Why it is necessary to eliminate the parasite
Why do you need to get rid of domestic fleas? Of course, these insects deliver a bigger problem to your animals, but this does not mean that they will not bite people.
Fleas are blood-sucking parasites that will feed on the blood of any warm-blooded creatures. Pets from insects suffer more because parasites are very comfortable to hide in thick wool.
As a result of the bites of these bloodsuckers, you can become infected with hepatitis, salmonellosis, encephalitis, brucellosis or typhus. These diseases can lead to serious consequences, and are not detected immediately.
Bloodsuckers are capable of provoking infectious diseases or helminthiasis in humans, if immunity is weakened in him. Since the appearance of fleas in the house is associated with an increased risk of exposure to one of the listed pathologies, it is necessary to proceed with the treatment of pets from fleas and the room itself.
Routes of entry and detection
Scientists have found that there are many species of fleas, but only a few of them can be found in homes. These insects usually parasitize animals.
Bloodsuckers can get into the apartment from the street or porch. The main reason is your pets. If you let the cat out for a walk or regularly take the dogs out for a walk, then the risk of getting a flea on their hair is very high.
A person can also bring parasites on his clothes. Fleas can get to you from the neighbors through a common vestibule. It should be noted that sometimes they can enter the apartment through the ventilation ducts of the house, but this is rare.
The problem of the appearance of insects in private homes is much more acute. If these parasites are detected, you must immediately begin disinfection.
Disinfection Instructions
How to get rid of fleas in your home? In order to effectively remove these parasites, you need to use chemical products, as well as resort to the general cleaning of the entire apartment.
Remember that no disinsection methods will give a good result if you do not prepare the room for processing. How to proceed:
- wash clothes and bedding with a powder and laundry soap at high temperature. If some things cannot be washed in this way, then steam them;
- it is necessary to thoroughly wash the entire furniture in the house (cabinets, marvels, tables, etc.);
- clean and vacuum the floor, carpets, walkways;
- remove excess items in places.
Only after preparation can the apartment be treated with chemical preparations. In addition to the disinsection of the room itself, you need to redeem all the animals in the house. If they are not completely destroyed, then the fleas will begin to multiply again, and after 1-2 months the problem will reappear.
For animals buy special antiseptic shampoos and products for the treatment of wool. Shampoos are used for bathing pets, and drops are dissolved in water and the skin and coat are treated with a prepared solution. Its residues can be processed plinth or under the sofa.
Chemical methods
So, what is the best way to process an apartment from fleas? Chemicals are the most effective way to get fleas out of the living room. A group of insecticides with active substances that have an antiseptic effect is used. Strong remedies are capable of destroying all insects in a single application.
Of course, safety precautions must be observed, since the products can pose a threat to human health. Be sure to wear glasses, gloves and a respirator so that the chemical compounds do not get on the skin or respiratory tract.
For processing surfaces in rooms, you can use "Dichlorvos", "Centre Hom" or "Tetrix".
"Dichlorvos" is an effective means, but after its use in a residential premise, it is desirable for the owners to move out of the apartment for a few days. The product is hazardous to health if inhaled particles of active substances. You can use the "Belfo", which is sold in specialized stores.
Using chemical means, it is necessary to carefully spray all surfaces to a height of one meter from the floor. It is imperative that the skirting board, the corners of the rooms, under the sofas or beds, slots between large furniture and walls be well worked.
It is necessary to spray the flesh to the front door, from where the insects appeared. This will create a barrier to prevent the penetration of new parasites.
"Entomozan" is an insecticidal drug for the destruction of ectoparasites.It is produced in ampoules of 2 ml of solution or bottles of 50 ml, has a sharp, specific smell. After dissolving the liquid in water, a white solution is obtained. “Entomozan” has a low level of toxicity, therefore it is safe for warm-blooded animals.
Observing the recommendations specified in the instructions, you can avoid side effects of the drug. Exceeding the dosage or improper treatment of the animal, the pet may manifest: vomiting, apathy, convulsions, trembling in the body, itching and rash on the skin.
Entomozan can be used to bring out fleas not only in cats or dogs, but also in cattle, pigs, rabbits, horses and even birds.
Widely used means "Butoks." It retains its effect for two weeks.
Folk remedies
Flea processing in the apartment can also be carried out with folk remedies. They are less effective, but they are suitable if there are only a few insects in the house.
There are situations when chemical products cannot be used at home - individual intolerance, increased skin sensitivity, little children or elderly people, there is no way to leave the apartment after treatment with harsh chemicals.
Essential oils from these plants or citrus are more effectively used, since they are concentrated and can be used to treat the surface or bathe animals (a few drops of oil are added to the shampoo).
The procedure can be repeated several times to achieve maximum effect. Garlic and brewer's yeast may be used. These are well-known folk remedies used in the fight against bloodsucking insects. The combination of these ingredients is absolutely harmless for pets.
Fresh Caucasian camomile. The stems and leaves of the plant need to be laid out around the premises, once a few weeks it needs to be changed.
Sawdust pine. Pine sawdust is usually filled with animal bedding.
Baking soda and salt. In order to process an apartment from fleas, you need to mix two hundred grams of these food products and sprinkle carpets, soft furniture with this powder, and thoroughly vacuum after 12 hours. You will need to repeat the procedure a few more times.
Beer yeast and garlic. Ingredients must be mixed and treated with a mixture of floor, carpet. After half a day, you need to vacuum them.
There is another effective remedy - kerosin. It is effective in the processing of rooms, but it has a very sharp smell and is also fire hazardous. Processed rooms with kerosene must be left for a few hours, and then checked. The smell will disappear for a long time, therefore it is advisable not to be in this room.
Professional processing
Flea disinfection in the apartment can be carried out by special services. If you didn’t manage to get rid of insects on your own, then professionals will be able to do it. They use highly toxic insecticides, after which fleas are guaranteed to disappear.
After the procedures, the cleaned house from parasites needs to be thoroughly washed, having done the general cleaning with detergents.
Prevention
Insects can always reappear in your home, so you need to take preventative measures. During the year from the moment of the processing, it is necessary:
- at least once a week to conduct quality sanitary cleaning of rooms, to clean the floor, carpets from dust and pollution;
- regularly change and wash bed linen;
- apply to specialized services on time for deratization in basements;
- after the treatment of rooms from fleas has already been successfully completed, do not remove the anti-collar collars from animals for a month (minimum);
- use folk remedies to deter parasites;
- periodically lubricate the ventilation hole and the door box with insecticidal pencils or small pencils - “Agrometrin”, “Mashenka” or other preparations;
- air the apartment every day;
- time to take out pillows and mattresses in the sun.
Processing the apartment from pests
Basement fleas can also penetrate the first and last floors in houses and apartments if there are too many of them in the basement or in the attic and sanitary rules for deratization and disinsection are not observed there.
If you do not carry out deratization work at the time and allow a large concentration of rats and mice in the basement, namely they are the main carriers of fleas in the basements, then soon these insects will breed so much that they will go up to occupy new territories for living.
In old houses, unfortunately, basement fleas in an apartment are not uncommon. In this case, urgent disinfection from fleas is needed, which can be done on your own or call the sanitary service, which will quickly arrive and carry out professional destruction of fleas in your home.
The processing of an apartment from fleas is somewhat different from the processing of non-residential premises, such as basements and attics.
Fleas have some features that you need to remember when working in the affected area. Fleas live up to 1.5 meters above the floor. These are mainly carpets, bedding and rugs. Happens, and jump on upholstered furniture, but this is rare. For greater certainty, we treat the entire territory up to 2 meters in height with the most effective flea control products.
Fleas are very tenacious insects, can do without water and food for more than a month. For them, you need to select special drugs, because many have protective immunity.
Why they appear
Often fleas appear in apartments along with animals. Fleas also live in basements and attics of residential buildings. The lower and last floors of apartments, private houses are the most frequently affected residential objects. Fleas also live on rats and pigeons.
The flea bite site turns red and sore. It is not recommended to cope with this type of insect on its own, as this rarely helps to completely destroy them, only exacerbating the already difficult struggle with them.
Calling professional disinfectors is an effective solution for fleas. Our disinfectors have special facilities and all the necessary equipment to destroy fleas forever.
How to eliminate
For a positive effect when destroying fleas in an apartment, be patient, because this is not an easy task, as it might seem at first glance. You can, of course, catch several fleas and crush them on the animal, douse the fleas with a flea spray, but it is unlikely that all fleas can be removed from the apartment in this way.
In addition to fleas, in their habitats, there are also larvae swarming under the litter of animals, under carpets and in baseboards. The flea development cycle is long, worm-shaped larvae first hatch from the eggs, then they turn into pupae and only after that a real flea is born.
Larvae do not feed on blood, and adult fleas can do without blood for a very long time. At the same time, they can hide not only in the hair of animals, but also outside it, hiding in the secluded corners of your house. All this complicates the processing process from fleas.
A few subtleties
Fleas must be poisoned simultaneously on the animal and in the entire apartment.- Do not leave pets while hounding fleas in the apartment. First process the animal, then take it out of the room and process your house from fleas.
After destroying fleas in the house, there is a high probability that the larvae will survive and require repeated processing.
