How to remove flea from the House

Introduction

When you have a furry friend, you’re bound to run into some issues. And among the most annoying and difficult issues is fleas. Fleas are little parasites that feed on blood from various animals, including pets. They can make your dog or cat itch, causing them discomfort and even making them lose hair. If not dealt with promptly, fleas can reproduce rapidly – a mother flea can lay up to 50 eggs per day! Fortunately, there are a few simple measures you can take to get rid of these pests without spending too much time or money doing so. Once you’ve taken action to prevent future infestations by taking steps such as giving your pet regular insecticide treatments and vacuuming furniture regularly, follow the steps below to eliminate any existing critter problem in your home:

Clean your dog or cat with flea shampoo

A good flea shampoo will kill the adult fleas on your dog or cat and prevent them from hatching. You can buy a flea shampoo at the pet store, but you can also make one yourself with ingredients such as vinegar and baking soda.

If you’re worried about chemicals in commercial products or just want to be cheap, baby shampoo or dish soap are also effective at killing fleas. It’s best if you clean both the dog and its bedding after bathing.

Try using a flea comb.

A flea comb is a metal comb that can be used to remove fleas from the fur of dogs and cats. You can also use a flea comb to remove fleas from carpets.

Flea combs are very sharp so they should be used with care.

Squeeze lemon juice or vinegar on your carpet to kill fleas.

Lemon juice and vinegar are natural flea killers. You can use either one to kill fleas on your carpet, but lemon juice is much more effective because it’s more acidic than vinegar and kills the pests immediately upon contact. Simply squeeze some lemon juice or vinegar onto a sponge or cloth and wipe over your carpet until the stain is gone. This should kill any fleas that are stuck in the fibers of your carpeting, as well as their eggs, larvae, and pupae hidden in other fabrics throughout your home (if there aren’t any adult fleas around).

You should also make sure you vacuum up any dead bodies after using this method—the smell will attract more pests if left alone!

Wash the mattress in hot water.

To wash the mattress, start by vacuuming the entire area. Next, spray the mattress with hot water and allow it to soak for at least twenty minutes before you begin scrubbing. If needed, you can use a wet/dry vacuum to remove excess hair and flea eggs from the surface of your mattress.

After removing all loose debris from your mattress, prepare a solution of hot water and vinegar in a two-to-one ratio (two cups water for every cup of vinegar). Mix this solution together in an easy-to-pour container and sprinkle baking soda over the stained areas of your mattress before pouring on this mixture. Then let everything sit for at least twenty minutes before moving onto the next step: cleaning with hydrogen peroxide

Run the vacuum cleaner over floors and carpets.

Vacuum at least once a week. Vacuum carpets and upholstery to remove flea dirt, which consists of the dried blood, skin, and excrement of fleas.

Use a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter if you have one; this will capture more than 99% of all particles in the air including dust mites and other allergens, bacteria, viruses and mold spores that cause asthma attacks. Use it on bare floors as well as rugs where possible to get rid of any stragglers that may have been missed when you cleaned up after your pet last time (if they are allowed on those areas).

Vacuum all around furniture including underneath sofas and chairs—an easy place for fleas to hide is under furniture where there is less airflow around them which can help prevent them from drying out during their dormant period.

Treat your pet-friendly lawn with insecticides.

• Treat your pet-friendly lawn with insecticides.
• Keep pets out of the yard until it dries completely and repeat the treatment in three weeks to kill off any eggs that were laid by fleas after the first treatment.
• If you have children or fish, do not use insecticides labeled as “harmful to humans,” as they may be harmful to them as well

Fleas are difficult to eliminate, but it’s possible with a little bit of work.

You’re probably thinking, “Surely there’s no way to get rid of fleas in the house.” After all, they’re tiny—you can’t even see them with the naked eye!

But if you have pets, you know that fleas are a persistent pest. And if your pet has recently been exposed to a large number of fleas, it’s possible that some will lay eggs in your home and yard. If these eggs hatch, you’ll need to take action quickly before an infestation occurs. Plus, some people are allergic to flea bites and may develop rashes or other health issues if bitten by one or more fleas on their body.

Conclusion

As you can see, there are a variety of ways to rid your home of fleas. We recommend trying several different options and seeing which one works best for your home. Don’t give up if the first method doesn’t work – there are plenty others! Remember that these bugs can live in both carpets and hardwood floors so make sure to treat both surfaces when trying out different methods.
