How to control flea and tick?

Always place a clean towel where your pet sleeps and wash it once a week. This is the best way to prevent a flea infestation because the eggs that are deposited on the host fall into the environment. In this way, the eggs are periodically discarded.

If the floor of the house is made of planks or boards, all existing openings must be caulked, as they can serve as a shelter for fleas in the environment. Periodic hygiene of domestic animals and maintenance of adequate coexistence in social housing must be maintained.

What flea and tick control?

The best control is to protect the animal, so it will not take fleas into the house. But disinfecting the environment also brings results, as only 5% of fleas are in animals and 95% in the background. The owner can opt for some products available on the market, usually in a spray, which is insecticides, and have exceptional safety for the animal but are not very useful. The control made by companies is more effective. However, it usually requires the absence of the animal for a few days. But some simple actions can help: do not accumulate garbage or organic waste and use a vacuum cleaner, as flea eggs are very light.

Most animals are infested on walks, having contact with infected dogs in squares, parks, home gates, or with unprotected cats that stroll around the neighborhood. Therefore, the best way to protect your pet during the summer is to avoid places with the large circulation of dogs and cats. But, to eliminate fleas, specific products for this purpose must be used in your pet, with reinforcement every 30 days. It is important to remember that the only possibility of repelling the parasite before biting the animal is the flea collar.

When to start flea and tick control?

Flea eggs become larvae in a circular shape of about 0.5 mm in about two to three days. The caterpillar has a period of about 6 to 11 days and feeds on flea dung and a part of the garbage, and when it becomes a pupa, it becomes an adult in about 6 to 14 days, and the life of the adult is about 3 to 6 weeks It is said that.

When it comes to adulthood, it seeks out the host and parasitizes it. It sucks blood within 10 minutes after infestation and lays eggs, but adult fleas lay about 4 to 20 eggs per day.
It is said that only one flea lays about 400 to 1000 eggs in a lifetime.

This means that fleas may increase in about one month.
