Acclaim Household Flea Spray, Aerosol, 500 ml, (Pack of 1)

Product Information

Flea treatments do work as long as you use the treatments regularly, correctly and you remember to treat your pet AND your home. However, if the hack regarding washing up liquid and a candle in your room appeals to you, but you are concerned about fire hazards, it is a safer version. Letting your pet into all rooms in the house as the presence of a host will encourage fleas to hatch out. 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.

Once approved, there are four classifications and routes to market, with POM-V (Prescription Only Medicine – Veterinary Surgeon) being one. Because it should probably be used alongside sprays as it will only cover low areas, we can’t say how effective it would be by itself, but it was easy to use and good to try alongside other products for peace of mind.Fleas will also only die if they bite your pet and ingest the product in their blood but can live for up to two weeks without a meal. A study by the Veterinary Poisons Information Service (VPIS) found that as a many as one in 10 cats referred to them had died after being exposed to flea treatments containing permethrin and as many as 88% suffered convulsions and spasms and can need two to three days of intensive treatment to recover. Staykill is a bit sticky and seems to leave a residue, RIP Fleas smells the nicest and comes in a big can. It kills fleas and larvae and also absorbs pet odours to leave your room and furnishings smelling pleasant which is an added bonus.

So if you do find fleas boogying down on your floors and furniture, there are many times more as eggs and larvae, just waiting to take their place. If your pets spend a lot of time outside and you anticipate needing to reapply the flea spray monthly, weekly, or daily, opt for a large container. However, in their pupal phase, none of these treatments will affect them, and they can remain like this for many months.Chemical sprays may be “unscented,” but people often complain of the smell anyway, saying it reeks like “kerosene” or “chemicals. You can repeat as necessary in two or four-week cycles to remove any recently hatched fleas which were at the pupae stage previously. We found the smell to be quite potent when compared to Indorex, like a fly spray, but it soon disappeared after being left for half an hour. If you’re looking for a product that can get to the base of your carpets and deep into the fibers of your upholstery, consider a spray bottle that puts out a fine mist.

It is odourless, however, so if you find it impossible to do this, the product is still safe to use. Acclaim contains Precor, a long acting insect growth regulator which prevents flea eggs and larvae from maturing into adults - this breaks the life cycle and gives continuous protection for 12 months when used as directed. can protect the room for seven months after application, ensuring no eggs or larvae develop into adult fleas and that pupae will die once hatched.With all-natural ingredients, we love that this flea spray is one you can feel safe applying directly to the fur of your dog or cat for flea treatment or tick treatment. For example, some flea home sprays also eradicate other bugs, such as mosquitos, flies, ticks, and cockroaches. There are two primary types of flea sprays: those with chemicals and those with 100% natural ingredients. Hoover and spray the whole house in the morning and get the windows open in the after noon to air it and you will be grand. The Health and Safety Executive has found that there is no data to indicate any risk to pregnant women, babies, young children or mothers who are breastfeeding.

The active ingredients in Indorex are toxic to many pests, but also some pets including cats, birds, reptiles, spiders and fish. They give out heat and light to attract the fleas, which then stick to pads that they can’t jump off.Then spray your home evenly, following directions on the can, making sure you spray under furniture and on the pets’ bedding. 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.
