Keneler ve Pirelerle Mücadelede En İyi 5 Yöntem

 

Have ticks and fleas got you down? Having trouble keeping them away from your pets or your house? Would you like some free veterinary guidance on how to permanently get rid of fleas and ticks?

 

Here are my top five suggestions for overcoming flea and tick infestations.

 

1. Use products that are effective in killing fleas and ticks quickly.

 

Today, both over-the-counter and prescription flea and tick prevention medications are widely available, but how can you know which dog flea and tick control is the best?

 

Three important things should be considered when selecting a flea and tick prevention product:

 

Good lingering activities (which means it keeps killing fleas and ticks over time)

Quick and effective eradication

Heightened safety
 

 

Isoxazolines, such as Simparica, NexGard, and Bravecto, are the current flea and tick treatments available for dogs that I advise. All of these prescription medications to combat flea and tick infestations are only accessible with a prescription from your veterinarian.

 

Within two to four hours, isoxazolines begin killing fleas and ticks, and they continue to do so for weeks.

 

Simparica and NexGard are available as chewable tablets and are intended for monthly dosing. Bravecto is available as a chewable tablet and a topical solution, and its label calls for dosage every 12 weeks (or three months).

 

Isoxazolines may have negative neurological effects, according to a warning the FDA issued last year, but most animals are still thought to be safe from these medications. Always seek your veterinarian's advice on the top flea and tick remedies for your particular pet.

 

 

Pet owners also have the choice of prescription flea and tick medications like Comfortis, which employ spinosad.

 

The chewable tablet form of these prescription flea and tick preventatives is also given monthly. Both dogs and cats can use flea and tick preventatives containing spinosad.

 

The fact that spinosad treatments kill fleas quickly—within 30 minutes—is one of their main advantages. But are dog flea medications safe? Vomiting is a frequent side effect of spinosad flea and tick products. For this reason, it is advised to take the tablet with food.

 

Imidacloprid and Flumethrin

 

Dog and cat flea and tick collars may be preferred by certain pet parents. In order to protect dogs and cats from fleas and ticks for up to eight months, Seresto sells flea and tick collars that combine imidacloprid and flumethrin.

 

The eight-month lifespan and ease of upkeep of these flea and tick collars are advantages. Additionally, gloves are not required to be used when handling the collars.

 

But this might not be your best choice if you like to take your dog swimming. According to the manufacturer, Seresto's ability to control fleas is lowered to five months for dogs who swim more frequently than once per month, while its ability to control ticks is reduced to seven months.

 

As you can see, the options are plentiful. Your local veterinarian is the best source for information in your area because they can advise you on what works and what doesn't.

 

2. Select a tick-and-flea prevention method that eliminates all stages of the flea life cycle.

 

It is not sufficient to only eliminate adult fleas; you must also prevent their reproduction. Given the brief flea life cycle, it makes sense to choose flea and tick treatment that can eliminate fleas at all stages of development.

 

In as little as 48 hours after feeding on a pet, a flea can begin laying 40–50 eggs every day.

 

If you have a severe flea infestation, you'll want to know what rapidly kills fleas on dogs. You'll need a flea and tick preventative in this situation that also kills flea eggs and inhibits the development of fleas in their larval and pupal stages.

 

Products containing lufenuron, such as Sentinel, are a suitable option for dogs. Flea larvae cannot develop into adult fleas because lufenuron stops their growth.

 

Bununla birlikte, evcil hayvanınızın pire istilası varsa, en iyi hareket tarzını belirlemek için veterinerinize danışın.

 

3. Evdeki Tüm Evcil Hayvanlara Bakım Sağlayın

 

Yeniden istilayı durdurmak için pirelerin her bir aktif konakçısını ve potansiyel konakçısını mücadele etmelisiniz. Bu, evinizdeki her evcil hayvana ona gösterdiğiniz özeni göstermeyi gerektirir.

 

Köpeği tedavi ettikten sonra bile kedi, evinizi ve köpeğinizi yeniden istila edebilecek pirelere sahip olabilir. Sadece bir tanesinde pire fark etseniz bile, tüm ev hayvanlarını tedavi etmek en iyisidir.

 

 

4. Locate flea dens and treat them right away.

 

Evcil hayvanınız bir pire inine girerse veya içinden geçerse ara sıra pire kapabilir. Pire bulaşmış bir hayvan, bir yaprak yığınının üzerinde veya bir sundurmanın altı gibi bir yerde kaldığında, bir pire yuvası oluşur. Hayvan uyurken pireler ve yumurtaları yere düşer.

 

İlgi çekici bir kokuya sahip oldukları için köpeğiniz veya kediniz doğal olarak bu bölgelere ilgi duyacaktır. Köpeğiniz veya kediniz bir tanesine rastlarsa, araştırıp eve pire ile gelebilirler.

 

5. Evinizdeki pire istilasıyla mücadele etmek için elektrikli süpürge kullanın

 

Evinizdeki bir evcil hayvan pire istilasıyla mücadele ediyorsa, pire yumurtaları evinizin içine ve çevresine girmiştir. Pire yumurtaları, hareket ettiklerinde konakçıları tarafından dökülür ve sonuç olarak halılarınıza, mobilyalarınıza ve döşemelerinize sarılırlar.

 

Bir araştırmaya göre, elektrikli süpürge, kullandığınız elektrikli süpürgenin türü ne olursa olsun, her yaşam döngüsünde evinizdeki pireleri toplamak ve ortadan kaldırmak için etkili bir yaklaşım olabilir. Ek olarak, evcil hayvanınızın yatağını, taşıyıcılarını ve diğer dinlenme alanlarını süpürün.
