Flea season is starting up! 😵💫
While your pets can get fleas all year round it becomes more prominent in the warmer months!
Here are some tip and tricks to keep up your sleeve
- Carrying some home sprays can help deter the fleas from coming into your home. They really hate lemongress, cedarwood, and peppermint! 🌲
- Having a bag of diatomaceous earth in your home could help with multiple things! It is great for getting rid of fleas but it is also okay to ingest ( if you have food grade ) so you dont have to worry if your pet licks it! Most people will sprinkle the powder in their yards, carpet, and even on the pet themselves. Diatomaceous earth is very finely ground of fossils that when we touch is does no harm to us but if insects touch it they will die from being shredded from the outide. I know that sounds a little brutal but it really does help keep those fleas at bay. 🚫
- Flea medication! 👩🔬 There are a few options out there but the most popular are usually topicals, collars, and chewables. Every brand is a little different when it comes to doses and what they kill. There are even some that do extra and repel certain insects such as misquitos or certain flys!
There is a lot out there to choose from and every household is different. Stop by our store to see which flea treatment is right for your situation 🐜🐈⬛
