Indorex Flea Spray

Product Information

In simple terms, you have to be patient. Maybe not what you want to hear if you’re being bitten every night, but patience is key to eradicating the issue. First of all, consider the flea treatment which you have been using on your pet up until that stage- why didn’t it prevent the flea infestation from occurring? Consider if you were using it often enough, and using it correctly. If you were, then you may need to look at the possibility that the product itself has proven to be ineffective. There are various forms of home flea treatments, and you may find that some suit lifestyles or levels of severity better than others: Sprays If you want a product you can use outside on plants and patio areas for full flea coverage this could be ideal, as it won’t harm your plants or other wildlife.

The team here at Petz also have experience using flea products, like many pet owners. Having used the Virbac Spray and Acclaim Household Spray within the team regularly and over some years, we knew they had to be our biggest recommendations. 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. It contains Margosa, Citronella, Eucalyptus and Peppermint. These all have their own job and can repel fleas as they don’t like the smells, so is a bit more humane. A type of fogger, that you use as a candle as opposed to spraying. This releases smoke, which may be better for some people who can’t have liquid particles around or are worried about staining from liquids. Electronic Devices A form of fogger, flea bombs are often more on the professional scale versus spray foggers – for those who really have tried everything else.

Approximate Dimensions (Product): 28 x 6.7 x 6.7cmA flea bomb is a smoke treatment that kills any fleas in the area once activated, and you may need several, one for each room of the house. Make sure any cupboards containing clothes are also treated, hot washed or disposed of too, and any cushions and soft furnishings are treated. You will need to remove yourself and any plants and animals (including fish) from the home while the flea bomb works and clears from the air- maybe a good opportunity to take your pets to the groomers for a flea bath! Flea sprays Several people have called this spray the best around, and we also found the Virbac Indorex spray to not only be one of the easiest to use, but also one of the best at actually eradicating the full problem. In our experience, the smell wasn’t overpowering and soon disappeared. It also worked to stop the problem within a few days. Natural flea repellents and products are often not recommended as they aren’t as effective and often just repel as opposed to killing the fleas. The flea spray from Vibrac is a great option for disinsecting living areas. It is one of the most affordable options in our list, yet, it provides impressively long-lasting results and outcompetes many other more expensive products. A bit of a rogue product on the list. Not a spray, bomb or fogger like the others, but rather a natural, electronic pet mimic (which is more sensible than it sounds).

If you are worried about these issues, opt for a treatment that doesn’t contain the ingredient, but when used safely and following strict guidelines, it shouldn’t have a negative effect on animals. Always air a room fully after application. Natural vs Synthetic flea treatments – which is best?

They come in aerosol or trigger options and can be sprayed anywhere that is needed, as and when needed. Sprays usually kill fleas at all life stages and can be used as often as needed. They’re best for targetted action as opposed to a room-wide solution, for instance spraying directly onto bedding and carpets. Fogger Sprays Home flea repellants should be used when you are sure or suspect there are fleas in your home, such as clues from your pet or if you are being bitten.

Detecting the presence of fleas

The sprinkle-on formula acts as a carpet cleaner, being left to work its way in before needing to be vacuumed. It kills fleas and larvae and also absorbs pet odours to leave your room and furnishings smelling pleasant which is an added bonus.

A flea spray can also be used as a preventative measure every so often, such as monthly at the same time as the reapplication of spot-on topical treatments for your pet. Summer is a particularly vital time to protect your home when the weather is hotter and fleas are more prominent in the heat. This is particularly relevant if you take your dog on walks in the grass or your cat is outdoors. Experience with fleas can differ from person to person. Some may have very bad infestations and others could be able to nip the issue in the bud early on. Therefore, taking on board a range of people’s experiences was vital. We spent hours researching and eliminating products that just don’t cut it.As versatile and fast-acting as it is, the spray is non-toxic, so, you can safely use it around the house and yard. It will do any harm neither to you nor to your pets. You can even spray it out in pet houses, cages, and barns to keep youк farm animals safe as well. Did you know that only 5% of fleas are actually on your pet at any one time? The other 95% are on soft furnishings, just jumping onto your pet temporarily to feed.

Eggs and larvae can also only be killed by home sprays and foggers.
