    5 Ways To Protect Your House Against Fleas (Naturally)

    Diatomaceous Earth

    Food-grade diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic, fine powder comprised of diatoms or fossilized organisms. DE breaks down flea egg exoskeletons, so they dry out and die before they hatch. 

     

    DE is safe to be used both indoors and out, so spread some on your lawn, and apply the powder wherever you have floor covering, then vacuum up after two days. Repeat monthly throughout flea season.

     

    You can find DE at garden centers and holistic dog supply stores. (Note: DE dust can irritate lung cilia, so keep your dog safely sequestered, and wear a mask while applying, until the dust has settled.) 

     

    While we’re talking about lawns, it’s best to keep it cut short.

     

    You can also protect your outdoor-indoor transition zone with a container garden featuring naturally flea repellant plants like rosemary, lemon balm and sage.



    Brush, Brush, Brush 

    Keep your dog groomed between weekly baths with daily head-to-toe grooming sessions, starting with his face, working your way down to include ears, neck, torso, underbelly, legs, and all areas of the tail.

     


    Lather, Rinse, Repeat

    Wash your dog with all-natural citrus castile soap every week, and rinse with apple cider vinegar. You can also spray his skin and coat (avoiding eyes and any open wounds) with a solution of 4 ounces filtered water; 6 ounces raw, organic ACV; and ¼ teaspoon pink Himalayan or sea salt. 



    Defend The Fort

    Get the jump on them by steam cleaning your carpets every Spring. Keep up the combat by vacuuming weekly (don’t forget the upholstery!), and immediately emptying the bags or canister into outdoor bins. 

     

    Finally, launder all your dog’s bedding (and your own, if he sleeps with you!) weekly in hot water using naturally derived, scent- and dye-free detergent. 


    It’s What’s Inside That Counts – Making Your Dog An Inhospitable Host  

    Fleas are parasites, and parasites, by nature, are designed to prey on the weak and infirm. Most dogs who are plagued by fleas are not fed a health-promoting diet. 

     

    Conversely, the best way to send fleas elsewhere for dinner is to provide your dog with a firm foundation for good health from the inside out, by feeding him a fresh, raw based diet. 

     

    Be sure to give him lots of muscle meat, organs, oily fish and eggs to provide B vitamins. You should also pay attention to good quality fats. 

     

    Flaxseeds, hempseed and their oils, as well as poultry, provide lots of omega-6 fatty acids; while mackerel and sardines are good sources of omega-3 fatty acids.

    Sardine snacks

    Hi, As I have a cat with few teeth remaining, I mash a sardine into her wet and small kibble dishes. She loves them.
    Unfortunately the two TPs don’t like them… but thankfully love the other snacks I’ve bought in Pet Snacks range. Cheers Sue.

    Sardine Crumble

    I found the snacks to be quite broken up on arrival. Also very messy in the house. Not sure I’d order them again, Bronson (the critic) isn’t that fussed on them unfortunately 😕
