How Do You Kill Ticks & Fleas?

Fleas and ticks can quickly become a problem in a home with pets. Both species multiply rapidly and can turn the presence of a few fleas into an infestation in a matter of weeks. Proper flea and tick prevention is a multiple-step process that involves treating the home, the yard and the pets for the best results. Treat carpet and upholstery surfaces in the home using a canister of table salt. The properties in salt dry out flea and tick eggs that have been laid in the carpeting, upholstery and other soft surfaces. Allow the salt to remain in the carpet until the remaining steps in the process have been carried out. Treat pets in the home using a topical flea and tick preventative medicine. Advantage and Frontline are two examples of flea and tick preventatives that are applied on a monthly basis for dogs and cats. Both products require approximately 24 hours before fleas and ticks on the body begin to die, and up to a week to be fully effective. These medicines can be obtained at most
