Home Pest Control : How to Kill Fleas in 24 Hours 

im just a dude working to stay alive and no fuckin kidding fleas are the hardest battle yet

U never had to deal with bed bugs yet. Fleas ain't shit compared to bed bugs

Luis Z that’s rude. you’re the “fuckin loser” for commenting such a thing

@@snowfauna what

@@renameagain5808 i think they deleted their comment lol

Back in the day, we used to cut a piece of a new flea collar off and put it in our vacuum cleaner bag. idk what the equivilant of doing that today would be.

yup

Nothigng like a guy with all jokes and no results huh?

Char Fox I would be remiss if I did not stop and write a huge THANK YOU for you taking the time to explain all this. Out of nowhere, we have fleas everywhere and it's the worst! Thank you so much for your step by step advice. I'm to the point where I'm ready to abandon the house and all my belongings and start a new life somewhere far away from these horrible little monsters. Thank you so very much. I'm doing everything you said today. Please, cross your fingers for me that it works for us too!

Anna Grace Did it help your problem? I'm still dusting with flea powder occasionally. But I haven't had the itching anymore nor seen any fleas.

Char Fox I just found fleas on my strictly indoor cat today. They were all over her. And she sleeps primarily on my bed right next to me. After watching several vids and reading numerous comments I find yours the most practical. I will try this. Bc I'm at a complete loss how she got them. She's 7 yrs old and been indoors since she was 6wks old (when I brought her home). And have never had a problem till now. I usually bathe her two to three times a year and have never seen fleas until today. She has never been around other pets or has been outside. I don't want to sleep in my bed now haha.

D Goody All it takes is one of the pests coming in on your clothes. And if you have carpeting, they will overrun your house. I tried flea bombs, flea powder, etc. When I used bedbug bombs instead of just flea bombs, and added the Dawn solutions, it's the first time we got relief.

D Goody Try food grade diatomaceous earth. It is safe to put a light dusting on your bed, carpet,furniture and pets.

It was 4 years ago -- just wondering if it got rid of them?

@@flower-the-earth he probably moved or something

@@iVerzed 😂😂

Cut flea collar ? That sounds extremely stupid since a vacuum sucks air in NOT out plus no need to waste extra cash on a wasted flea collar since the vacuum itself destroys fleas at any stage. The suction alone can destroy them but just to be safe empty the vacuum filter down the toilet and watch the live ones get flushed to HELL.

Oh noooo! RIP neighbours ! The fleas got rid of this family. ☠️

Have you seen a difference in the past week since trying it?

Yes please. Did it work?

I'm there right now. Seriously is enough to send you over the edge. I moved into a flat, my dog has had the odd flea over the years, but this was unbelievable. THE WORST FOR ME IS... just moving in most furniture in storage, bags of clothes every where. As my plan was to decorate and then get my carpets fitted. Then this hit me, at least my carpets weren't fitted. The fleas weren't the problem, it's the next stages, that keep cropping up. There are days I sit and cry as I don't know what to do next.ive 2 fleas in these 4mnths. My dog is protected. She has always slept with me. I bought a little power steamer. I've hovered. I think my room is the hub because I had clothes and other things all on a sofa in my room. Washing bedding I've boiled on 90degrees wash with bleach. It's the lava stage. I think it's that stage.

Ive had no success.. after spending countless cash on things, I almost went bankrupt. Almost ended up putting my house on the market untill I realized this video. Came back months later. Same problem persisting. I NEED this product so I can at least try and find some kind of relief..

@@dogtagz_2849 hows it going now?

Sophisticated White Man is that the actual name? My daughter has them bad! I'm visiting from.CA and getting bit like crazy! I bought stuff from.petco...seems to work, but they are still here. WHAT EXACTLY DID U BUY? DID U HAVE TO DO SOME HOME MIXING? IF SO, WHAT EXACTLY AND HOW MUCH!!??

Going through it now I had my dog with the seresto collar and I guess it want tight enough so it didnt work I bought the advantix drops and I hope they work I seen some on him still though now I have the fleas in the house i bombed all the rooms and it didnt kill all of them yes u read it didnt and work so now i went oldschool and used Clorox in the wooden floors but theres a few still around hopefully i win this war its 2 wars my dog and the house i havent been sleeping well because of this anxiety

@@paulappleton1085 Did you win?

@@flower-the-earth I love the data gathering. If you ever won, I would like to hear about it as well

I don't understand when these videos are made you ask them questions for help and they never answer you back just don't understand that🤔 very frustrating

NO!!! Permethrin belongs to a pyrethroid family of chemicals commonly used to control insects. ... While permethrin is frequently used as an insecticide and is safe around many animals, it is highly toxic to cats. One of the most commonly reported poisoning in cats is permethrin. These products are NOT safe to use on cats. AND FLEA COLLARS ARE TOXIC POISON use generic cat Frontline if $ an issue.

Boric acid is banned in the UK even for pest control. So that should make one wonder how safe it is. Boric acid , it is claimed, is toxic to humans and pets but "only when ingested in large quantities".

Yet another reason to go MGTOW

I though you meant bastards as in your kids lol

I havent got a good night's rest in a week of two

@@saddx2813 3 Months for me

@@JSharpie I feel you its been a while since I have rested.

You wake up with new bites every morning? I have so many, there isn't a spot on my ankles that isn't bit. They are driving me insane!

abdi yusuf same here! I have tried everything! I’m finally having an exterminator come in a few days!

have you won the war on fleas yet?

You are not alone with this nightmare experience, for you was 4 yrs ago, for me I in battle with these creepy insects from the last 4 months. My husband and my son, they don’t feel them , but for me ?, always find their way to attached to my clothes , they invade my whole home 😔., and affect my emotions and my energy, I only want to run away and start from “0”, I’m tired to be washing clothes and putting in plastic bags for don’t be contaminated?, and even in the plastic bags , Can find a way to climb ., I don’t see on TV programs or something, to help us with preventive Information about plagues, and how much affect the living. Hope you doing better , let us know , what’s happened.

@@carmenv.mateos4586 Hope you’ve won the war! I heard some ppl just use a steam cleaner and steamed everything every day for like 2 weeks. Someone used a shop vac - she didn’t give details, but I’m guessing she vacuumed every day for a week or two.

@@Laurenski67 thank you 😊 Yes I Did 🙏 And also , Thanks to God and all the tutorials related to fleas, I managed to get rid of them without knowing it ?, I called two exterminators 4 months later and when they checked my house they did not find fleas, but they did smell the insecticides, so my work was excellent and exhaustive!, but I kept feeling itchy and I couldn't even sit on my sofa, recliner, my bed and more,,, I saw little black dots on my bedspread, towels, clothes, etc., I was invaded by these insects that apparently already They weren't fleas! And it was impossible to take a piece of clothing from my closet that was free of these bugs? They entered through the roof of my house, when a branch of my nearby tree hit the edge of my roof after a storm, making a hole, through which thousands or millions of mites entered! They only affected me, I saw it as impossible My war, which according to me were fleas? mites after the fleas continued, I stopped using flea insecticides and started using Diatomaceus earth powder, apple vinegar spray, alcohol spray, baking soda, and all clothes washed in hot water, and stored in plastic bags so they wouldn't get contaminated with these mites! I had to put a sticker roll over my clothes and they stuck there, no one believed they were mites, I kept cleaning and by April of this year, they stopped feeling them, Right now I can say that patience and perseverance are the keys to victory against these insects! And my faith in God gave me the strength to overcome everything! I didn't have to escape from my house, I thought it was a hopeless case 😞, but little by little everything was returning to normal. The products that I used first for fleas were; Raid flea carpet & room, Raid flea fogs, Orthon insecticide spray against fleas, Martin IG regulator, bifetrin insecticide and carpet washing and vacuuming a lot of sofas, beds, carpets, I wish you good luck, Patience and faith for those who are currently dealing with these horrible insects.

@@carmenv.mateos4586y Were the mites biting you under the clothes in the back and stomach area? Sorry, I'm trying to understand your problem. Wasn’t it fleas, was it mites ? We have been bitten for seven months, and we used all kinds of fleas control, also I only saw fleas once at the beginning of the problem, but I noticed that there were mites on the windows from the outside in abundance and they had like nests inside the edges of the windows. Is this insect the reason for my suffering and not the fleas?

Oh my gosh these things are a nightmare! I treat everything and vacuum and my cats and dogs are still covered with fleas! I don't know what to do anymore! I use advantage on my animals for topicals but not working still fleas. I'm beginning to think they are indestructible! I feel so sorry for my animals 😢 has anyone used anything that really works?

I have one cat, it was full of fleas one week ago I was desperate, then I found out about coconut oil, it works amazingly for my pet, they die quick because they get suffocated …but then now I have them on my bed everywhere but not on my cat at least 😂 so noow I need to figure out what to do for my house 💀

@@susan4981 i have two cats and i'm currently in a battle with them, one had advantage flea treatment and the other had frontline. They seem way better and not irritated at all currently, its trying to catch them everywhere else. The best advice seems to be hoover everywhere everyday multiple times, I also have this spray that people swear by called Indorex, I'm in the UK so unsure if you can get this stuff elsewhere but that is meant to kill them off. Just don't let your pets near where youve sprayed as it can be toxic to them. I'm also washing loads of clothes, bedding, cushions etc on a high temperature to try and make sure theres none on there. Duvets/mattress' and rugs are hard to wash, I would advice spraying them with Indorex if you can get it

Good luck getting an answer, he's not answering anyone's questions!

And so far, I'm losing.

@@EfrainRiveraJunior same 😐

@@nostalgia3767 - it took us a while, but we eliminated our bed beg problem.

Chickens and ducks eat fleas and ticks

UKmedicFRCS what is hoovering?

@@Here12years Vacuuming

@@ukmedicfrcs oh, ok. Learn something new every day!

@@Here12years I should have realised that not everyone is going to know what " hoover " means. Sorry about that.

Boric acid is not an acid at all and it is not a chemical. It is found in nature, in sea water and in healing waters. It was in the natural water supplies before dangerous chemicals were introduced and are now universally used to public water supplies. Boric Acid is Boran and hydrogen peroxide, that is Boran and water with an extra hydrogen molecule. It is less toxic than salt, that is, it is perfectly safe and non toxic and in fact is does have healing qualities. Look up Boric Acid in healing water.

How the hell you want us to eat it but not inhale

@@Empress_Von probley bc when you inhale things it goes to your lungs and can cause mucus membranes to fight and produce mucus to build up around the particles that were inhaled causing inflammation now you got you a case of pneumonia.

Please do not put diatomaceous earth ON yr pets or where they might inhale it. It severely dries the skin and cats lick it and breathe it in off their coat. It causes calcification in the lungs.

That helps a little but won't eliminate them. Also if you use too much and vacuum it up it can break your vacuum. You will need to vacuum first with a shopvac then use your good vacuum. I tried Diatomaceous Earth and Borax and it didn't really help. It sure was difficult to clean up. You've been warned. Make sure you treat your pets and spray an IGR on your carpet, and drapes, and use some on your hard floors. Spray some in your pet bed too. It makes it so the eggs don't hatch.

@donnah what is IGR?

Marc Bergeron dealing with that now. So annoying

For the cats and the dogs: Advantage II, for the environment have you tried the steam machine ?

Marc Bergeron Advantage 2 didn't do jack for my cat. Big waste of money.

I tried steaming everything but it didn't work unfortunately. However, according to your experience looks like I'll have try it again! Wish me luck, 2 months in & I'm So over this!

@@cat5457 It may be necessary to repeat the steam treatment once or twice especially in cracks. Some eggs and even imagos may have escaped and they will unfortunately reappear. Probably in lesser numbers. Steam is the most efficient tool I've experimented but that doesn't mean the others are useless. Like vacuum cleaners, insecticide bombs (provided that they don't only kill adult fleas but at all stage of life of the insect). Flea traps with soapy water will not get rid completely of the fleas, but if you install many of these, they will indicate you where the infestation is at its worse and you will priotize these places.

Best thing to do is when you treat to get everybody out of the house and come back 4hours later.

He must not care if his dog is killed

But this only catches the adults, what about the eggs and other stages?

I have a bad infestation and I bought indorex I’m hoping that would work

@@violenciaprimus6863 Exactly! I don’t see adult flees in my bedroom, but I feel the littles tiny ones , ready to jump over me ! I’m constantly spraying and vacuum, but inside the closets are other amount attached to my clothes, specially in the seams of clothes., hard to see them, but is time to wear one of my blouses or sweaters?, they’re there !, ready for food. I’m beginning to feel exhausted and give up !, it’s too much ! 😣

I did this it called. Any e 15 .. pt alpine has growth Excelerator so you can pack him up. I’m in the process of it and it got me a couple days rest were they weren’t jumping on me anymore but I know it’s a process and it’s gonna happen again as soon as I start vacuuming, but I am definitely going to keep those bottles in stock and when I called the exterminator, that’s the bottle he had in his hand and you can’t inhale it eat for 2 to 4 hours gotta go buy a vacuum cleaner and I’m standing in there staring at 50 million of them wondering which one is good for Pflanze station not just for vacuuming that’s fun, OCD and anxiety

Flea's don't die in water, you need to add dish soap to make that routine effective

How much did she pay ? And what did they do ? Did they fumigation the entire home ? I’m search for something more extreme, apart From exterminator treatments. Let us know Thanks

I have heard Boric acid/borax is more safe than table salt

Far safer than diatomaceous earth. Borax in the laundry section is 99.9% pure.

Did u get help

World Class Athletes I had the professionals come back in and spray again, but am still seeing live fleas. That was only two days ago, so I’m not sure how long it takes for them to die. I’m still cleaning as often as I can and doing laundry frequently.

Sorry you didn't get answered back. I don't understand these people that make the videos, won't answer anyone's questions. I'll ask, and no answer, makes no sense, but they want supporters.

oliviaD It might not be fleas but dust mites or bed bugs, etc. There are a lot of things that can cause welts.

Guess he doesn't answer questions.
