1) Be sure the BRD isn't giving the critters refuge or transportation around the house.Originally Posted by shais_mom
2) You need to check the HOUSE!
YEARS ago somebody (2 Dawgs or a Kat) brought home some flea critters!
We made the Animals flea-free with new "Flea Collars" (don't laugh -
that's the way we did 'flea control' back in the Dark Ages!)
A week later *I* was getting bit up whenever I sat in one of the living room
'kliner chairs. Some research (without benefit of the I-net) suggested
that the HOUSE (carpets) or FURNITURE ('kliner chairs) were able to host
the critters if there wasn't a warm-blooded meal to enjoy.
We got some "spray" from Farm Bureau and sprayed the furniture and all the
places the Dawgs liked to lounge in - locked da poor KAT in the bathroom
so she didn't breathe the fumes, and vacated the house with the Dawgs for a day.
The Ranch *STUNK* for a week or more; but the critters stopped eating
2-Legger legs and ankles!
Call the OSU Extension Service (in Upper) at (419) 294-4931 -
They should have some info and ideas.
Happie Hunting!
