FLEA CONTROL PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

"PREVENTION not CURE is the best approach to flea control".

You could eliminate around 50 percent of flea eggs in a single pass with a vacuum. Vacuuming can provide a certain level of control at the pupal stage as some widely used synthetic pesticides can. You should vacuum your carpets at least once a week or every day during peak flea season, usually Spring to Autumn, remembering to clean underneath sofas and chairs. Your pet bedding should be washed on a regular basis. The vacuum bag should be replaced immediately after vacumming and disposed of in an outdoor trash container.

Flea combs can be another preventive method for controlling mild infestations of adult fleas. These combs have tightly spaced teeth which you should regularly comb your pet with, which in turn will out the fleas and their manure, this can serve as food for their larvae, but will still allow the hair to pass through. Constantly dip the comb into soapy water to dislodge and drown the fleas. You will probably find that pets usually enjoy the extra attention, and by combing regularly, you will have some idea of the flea population and use Flea Control Preventive repellants which are sold in safe liquid form if the numbers of fleas begin to swell.

In the outdoors, fleas can be highly susceptible to fluctuations in temperature and moisture. They prefer damp environments, fleas can be found most often in moist shaded areas like under porches and around dog kennels. By using effective Flea control products like, Frontline and Advantage you will be sure that all fleas will be killed and the liquid will continue performing to prevent further infestation on your pet.
