Though we're in the dead of winter, Spring is just around the corner. And with warmer weather comes fair-weather pests. Fleas can be more than just a pesky nuisance for both pets and their owners but fear not! Sweet Natured Pet is here to guide you through effective and natural methods to get rid of fleas on your pets and in your home. Let's embark on a journey towards a flea-free environment and ensure the well-being of your furry companions.
Getting Rid of Fleas on Your Pets:
- Gentle Bathing Techniques: Start by giving your pet a gentle bath using a natural, flea-repelling shampoo. Look for products containing essential oils like cedarwood.
- Flea-Repellent Sprays: Use a plant-based flea repellant spray like No Bugs!. Lightly mist your pet's fur, paying special attention to areas where fleas tend to hide like the ears, near the back and base of the tail.
- Regular Grooming: Regular grooming not only helps in removing adult fleas but also detects flea eggs and larvae. Use a flea comb to comb through your pet's fur, focusing on areas like the neck, back, and tail.
Getting Rid of Fleas in Your Home:
- Vacuuming: Vacuum your home thoroughly, paying special attention to areas where your pet spends the most time. Dispose of the vacuum bag in an outdoor trash can to prevent fleas from reinfesting your space.
- Wash Bedding and Linens: Wash your pet's bedding, as well as your own, in hot water. This helps eliminate flea eggs, larvae, and adult fleas hiding in fabric.
- Natural Home Sprays: No Bugs! is great for getting rid of fleas in the home as well. Spray this solution on carpets, upholstery, and pet bedding.
