Pet owners know that fleas multiply fast. But one adult female flea can lay up to 50 eggs per day. So one flea can turn into thousands. It isn't difficult for a home to become overrun with fleas. If has become so infested that regular cleaning isn't accomplishing anything. then you need to take drastic measures by purchasing a fogger, which will get rid of tons of fleas.
Instructions
Instructions
1. Read the instructions for the fogger you purchased. Pay close attention to the fine print. Remember you're dealing with toxic fumes, so use caution. Also make sure you purchase enough foggers. Each fogger will cover a specific amount of square feet. You need to cover each room in your home.
2. Turn off all heating pilots or lighting pilots. The gases used may be highly flammable, this will help prevent a fire from occurring.
3. Find a place to take your pets and children. After you have set off the bombs, you will need to vacate the premise for at least three hours. However, three hours is just an estimate. Some foggers may suggest a longer period of time, so follow the directions for the fogger that you purchased.
4. Vacuum your home before setting off the bombs. There are dormant larvae that could live after the bombing. Vacuuming will eliminate the chance of fleas turning up again after the home treatment. After vacuuming throw away the vacuum bag in a sealed plastic bag.
5. Turn off the air intake valves on your fish tanks or aquariums. Seal the tank and turn off the tank lights. You do not want toxic gas to enter the fish tank.
6. Remove any plates, silverware, food dishes, pet dishes or anything else you use for food. You do not want your plates to have toxic residue.
7. Set off the foggers and vacate you home.
8. Air out the house as soon as the fogger is completed. Open the doors and windows before letting pets and children back into the house. You should also vacuum your house again after the fogger. Throw away the vacuum bag in a plastic sealed bag.
