Fleas
Before the Treatment
First clear as much floor space as possible, to ensure that
treatment is as thorough as possible.
- Vacuum all areas as this helps to remove any debris, eggs,
larvae and adult fleas. The vibration of the vacuum cleaner also
helps to stimulate adults to hatch from their cocoon stage. Pay
particular attention to areas where your pet may sleep.
- Remember to remove the bag from the vacuum cleaner and dispose
of it in an outside bin as you may have collected eggs, larvae and
adult fleas.
- Pets must also be treated with a product approved for
veterinary use and their bedding thoroughly washed at a high
temperature.
After the Treatment
- The insecticide will be applied to all floor surfaces and these
areas must not be vacuumed or washed for at least 14 days after the
treatment or longer if possible.
- New adult fleas may still emerge up to a month after treatment
but there should still be sufficient insecticide present to kill
them off.
