Control fleas with natural products
No Fleas... PLEASE!
By: Diane, Arbico Organics
August, 2007

Some of our most desperate calls here at ARBICO are from customers with fleas, and lots of ’em. With fleas in the house, on us, and our pets, we need a solution that will work fast and keep working. If you are just treating the inside of your home, you’ll keep getting fleas that are moving in from outside. With the right combination of treatments, both inside and out, you’ll win the war against the fleas.

Lets start with outside. Nematodes (NemAttack) are super flea killers. They will find the fleas, burrow inside (they’re microscopic), release a bacteria to kill the flea, and then multiply inside. Nematodes will also help with ants, termites and other pests. Get the combo (NemAttack & NemaSeek) pack of both species of nematodes if you want to fight off ticks, beetles, grubs and more. I even put nematodes in my house plants to keep out the fungus gnats.

Next, we’ll work inside the house. The Flea Trap can be tucked under furniture and can catch up to 10,000 fleas in just 3 months. Working Boric Acid into your carpet and using Diatomaceous Earth as a barrier around your home will be a tremendous help in killing fleas in the house and keeping them out. A plate with Boric Acid in the center with a ring of DE pushed underneath furniture is a sure-fire way to get kill the pesky fleas walking through.

Lastly, let’s work on the pets. Flea ’n Tick B Gone can’t be beat. It can be used as part of a preventative routine or to remove pests on your animal (also spray in and around pet bedding). No more plastic flea collars-instead try our Rechargeable Flea Collar. It is a cotton collar with a bottle of perfumed oils designed to keep fleas away (smells great!). You just add a few drop of oil on the collar twice a week. If you and your dogs spend a lot of time outdoors, don’t go outside without using Knock-Out Repellant to keep away the flies, gnats, mosquitoes, fleas, and other pests. While you are working on getting rid of the fleas, make sure your pets are comfortable. Try using our Veterinarian’s Best Hot Spot Itch Relief Spray. For cats try the Natural Animal Shampoo and Dip for Cats.

This might seem like a lot to do, but it does work. So, here’s a quick recap…. Nematodes outside. Flea traps, Boric Acid, and Diatomaceous Earth inside. On the pets, Flea ’n Tick B Gone to get the fleas off your pet, Knock-Out or the Rechargeable Flea Collar to keep new fleas from hitchin’ a ride inside, and use a soothing shampoo or spray to keep your animals from itching.

Then do the jig when you’re finally flea-free!!
