Are you looking for a homemade flea killer for cats? Apple cider vinegar is a popular home remedy that has been used as a flea killer by many cat owners over the years. It is a natural product also referred to as ACV or apple cider.
Apple cider vinegar is a home remedy you can use to get rid of fleas on cats. It’s also good for many other skin issues and helps maintain overall skin health. But what mixture you should dilute it at, whether or not you should bathe the cat, and how often are all up for debate. I’m going to lay out what I think is the most effective way to use apple cider vinegar to treat an infestation of fleas and ticks on your cat.
Apple Cider Vinegar For Fleas On Cats

As a lot of people are choosing to go for more natural solutions when it comes to their pets. Apple cider vinegar is a great solution for fleas on cats, but you can also use it to treat other things in addition to fleas.
For example, if your cat is suffering from worms or parasites, apple cider vinegar can help with that too!
Apple cider vinegar is one of the best natural solutions that you can add to your regular flea control regime.
Apple cider vinegar is one of the best natural solutions that you can add to your regular flea control regime. It has many uses, and it’s also very easy to find at most pet stores or online.
- Fleas: You can use apple cider vinegar in a 2:1 ratio with water as a spray or bath for your cat. This will kill off any fleas on their fur or skin. You can also use apple cider vinegar as an additive when washing their bedding and other surfaces in the house where they spend time (such as furniture) to kill any fleas hiding there too!
- Hot spots: If you have an area on your cat’s skin that looks redder than normal, consider using acv as a treatment by mixing 50/50 with water in a spray bottle and spraying it on this area regularly until it clears up completely! If you’re unsure whether this would work while treating an active case of mange mites, try applying some diluted apple cider vinegar directly onto affected areas – if there are no adverse reactions after 10 minutes then continue applying until all signs disappear completely!
It not only kills those nasty fleas and ticks, it also helps treat hot spots and other skin conditions, as well as helping repel mosquitoes.
Apple cider vinegar is also a great insect repellent. It’s one of the ingredients in many commercial flea collars and sprays, due to its ability to kill adult fleas and ticks on contact with the animal’s fur or skin. The acidity of apple cider vinegar will kill these parasites by burning through their exoskeleton, allowing you to remove them easily with a comb or brush.
But don’t stop there! You can use this same acetic acid for other purposes as well, including:
- Treating hot spots, dry skin patches and other skin conditions in your cat
- Removing warts, calluses and corns from your pet’s paws
- Relieving itching caused by allergies
Here’s how to use apple cider vinegar for fleas on cats.
To use apple cider vinegar to get rid of fleas on cats:
- Make sure you buy organic, raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar. This will be labeled as “Braggs ACV” or something similar. It’s not the same as the stuff in most supermarkets that has been pasteurized and filtered with heat to remove nutrients like enzymes and probiotics, which helps give apple cider vinegar its healing properties.*
- Mix 1 part of unfiltered ACV to 2 parts water (if it’s a sensitive cat). A teaspoon is equal to 1/4 cup so if you have a small cat use less than half an ounce mixed with 8 ounces of water or add more if necessary!*
- Apply this solution after you have bathed your cat but before drying them off fully.*
You an use apple cider vinegar to safely rid your cat of fleas!
