IanB 0 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I've never had that much bother with fleas, but lately I've been bitten to hell off the little blighters, especially around my ankles, I've seen two in the house as well... so I've nuked the place... They've always made my skin crawl, nearly as much as ticks, Might give up rabbiting Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cold Ethyl 63 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I use acclaim plus every 6 months all round the house its not cheap at about £16.oo per tin but it does a 4 bed house and more.It also kills ticks slaters spiders etc and with the longer lasting insecticide stuff if fleas do get dropped theyre dead soon as possible so npo chance to breed and it inhibits the growth of the larvae as well so far its done my place very well indeed i use it everywhere.The dogs get frontlined reguarly as well as i hate the feckers with a passion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shamus 36 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 never known anything like this summer, done the dogs endlessly, set traps, must have been ideal weather for them, everyone seems the same, cat and dog owners. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I've not had any problems with Fleas but my mate has had a real bad problem with ticks on his Ferrets. They've been relentless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
