Find a dewormer that is carried in the pet stores or through your Veterinarian. It would be best to take your dog in for a check up along with a sample of his or her stool so that the Vet can check it out for internal parasites.
Many people believe that feeding their animals a garlic supplement will kill fleas.
Baby powder does NOT kill fleas.Get your pet Frontline,wash all bedding and flea powder the animals bed.
No garlic powder is not good at all for plants because it can harm the plants and kill them. P.S. Try using water instead of garlic powder. Sincerly, MoonlightApplesause@yahoo.com
yes baking soda is safe, as is talcum powder or baby powder. Both substances are good home remedies for killing fleas on your pet ... the powders will smother the fleas. When applying either powder, apply to the animals head first, which will prevent fleas from running towards the head as the powder is applied elsewhere.
Why not try flea powder or give your dog a bath using flea shampoo to get rid of your dog's fleas?
Garlic is not recommended as a flea treatment for pets as it can be toxic to them in large amounts. It is best to consult with a veterinarian for safe and effective flea control options for your pet.
No, it is not safe to feed garlic to a dog as it can be toxic, especially in large quantities. Garlic can cause damage to a dog's red blood cells, leading to anemia and other health problems. It's best to avoid giving garlic to dogs altogether.
Might be possible. I know for sure that by means of a very fine talcum-like powder (based on silica) you can kill fleas. The powder acts dehydrating both onto living fleas and their eggs, they dry out. It also cloggs the breathing orifices of the fleas. I use such powder from time to time for my cats (occasionally fleas are "leaving the sinking ship" and move from a mouse to the cat just eating the mouse...). It is no poison, but acts biologically - so I prefer it. The powder is applied both onto the cat and its favourite sleeping place. Just ask a veterinary, whether you can use it also against bedbugs.
Yes, you can do this treatment on your yard and it will kill fleas. The soap will coat the fleas and therefore kill them.
Baking soda can help dehydrate and kill fleas when applied in its dry form, as it can absorb moisture from the fleas' exoskeletons. However, when mixed with water, its effectiveness is significantly reduced since the moisture prevents it from having the dehydrating effect. For best results, it's advisable to use baking soda as a dry powder sprinkled in areas where fleas are present.
Get some nematodes, s. felitae are the ones you want. I've heard you can find them at garden centers, but I've had no luck so far. It's easier to find them online. http://www.arbico-organics.com/1220310.html I'm gonna try a mixture of garlic powder and cinnamon. Fleas and tick hate garlic powder and ants hate cinnamon. I'll let you know how it goes. Take care and good luck! Thanks for looking for natural options!
DEET is not typically used to kill fleas. It is a common insect repellent for mosquitoes and ticks, but there are more effective products specifically designed to kill fleas.
