3 Best Way To Get Rid Of Fleas In The House - How To Kill Fleas In 12 Hours

These wingless, creepy insects called fleas can give you sleepless nights!Here are some effective home remedies for fleas with which you can not only kill the fleas but can also control their recurrence.

Natural Remedy-1
Flea Trap Remedy to Catch Fleas with Dish-washing Liquid
You will need…
Dish washing liquid
Dinner plates or bowls
Tea candles
Warm water
Direction
At night, place a plate or a bowl in each of your rooms, preferably in the middle of the room. Place it on floor.
Now fill them with warm water. If you are using a bowl, fill it partly and if using a plate, fill it to the brim.
Now add dishwashing liquid to this water. Use a good amount of it, about a capful.
Place one tea candle in the center of each plate. If using bowl, you may not be able to place the candle inside it. You can place the candle near the bowl.
Now light the candles.
The fleas get attracted towards light. When they jump towards light, they will get stuck in the high viscosity of the liquid with soap. This way, fleas will get trapped and die.
You may dispose off the bodies in the morning.
If your house is badly infected with fleas, you may continue to do this for 3-4 nights.
As you are using fire at night when applying this home remedy to trap fleas, you should be extra cautious.

Natural Remedy-2
You will need…
Vinegar- 1 gallon (a little less than 4 liters)
Water- ½ gallon (a little less than 2 liters)
Lemon juice- 16 oz. (a little less than 500 ml)
Witch hazel- 8 oz. (a little less than 250 ml)
Fresh vacuum bag- 1
Home and Garden Sprayer- 1 (this sprayer should be able to hold at least 6-7 liters at a time)
Direction
You need to do vacuuming and then spraying with the flea spray.
Collect everything that cannot be vacuumed and wash it at the hottest setting of your washer. This kills even the larvae and eggs of fleas.
Now vacuum properly. Vacuum each corner, upholstery as well as cervices with the help of various vacuum attachments. Use the fresh vacuum bag. This ensures unrestricted air flow. Debris that collects from earlier vacuuming may hamper smooth air flow.
Now mix vinegar, water, lemon juice and witch hazel.
Fill this liquid mix into the garden sprayer.
Spray using a heavy spray.
Spray your carpets, furniture, pet bedding, window sills, floors, every nook and corner of your house.
Do this daily for at least 2-7 days depending upon how bad is the flea infestation in your home.
When fleas become less noticeable, you may then repeat every 3-4 days and thereafter once a week throughout the flea season.
If you start using this non toxic spray just when the flue season is approaching, you will need to spray only once a week throughout the flea season.

Natural Remedy-3
You will need…
Table salt or any of the sea salts (you will need a lots of it depending upon the size of area where you need to sprinkle salt to kill fleas)
Large spice bottle with a shaker top
Direction
See if your salt is finely ground or not. If not, grind it to get a fine salt powder.
Fill up your spice bottle with this salt leaving a little room on the top so that you can shake and sprinkle the salt from it.
Sprinkle the salt over your carpets in each room. The salt should cover the area evenly.
Leave for 12 to 48 hours.
After 1-2 days, vacuum thoroughly.

as i am reading this a flea jumped onto my screen ... ironic

[lindagray]

I put coconut oil all over my cats. It worked, haven't got bit. Also vacumned the furniture & rugs with a strong vacumn & decarded the bag. Sprayed Natural Care Flea & Tick spray all over furniture & rugs let it dry. So far do good. Going to do again next wk just incase any larvae missed. It has been a journey.

[redhytech]

yes, light candle and leave them UNSUPERVISED overnight. your house will probably burn to the ground as you sleep, , but you flea problem will be GONE or at least no longer your biggest problem.

[stinkfist]

I have flea bites all over my feet and legs it's so itchy it hurts

[kingsxkids]

Good information, but I cannot stand listening to a machine.

Alright guys, I tried the candle and dish soap method and it is phenomenal. I used extremely hot water, a candle that had been lit for more than an hour (I did this because the wax is melted and they’ll jump into it and die instantly), and salt. When making the soap, salt and hot water solution, avoid bubbles at all costs (they can jump off the bubbles). So when adding water slowly run it down the side of the GLASS plate/bowl so no bubbles appear and stir with your finger slowly and place it anywhere. Promise this works miracles. Please keep your pets away from it though.

I did this and in the middle of the night one of the candles fell over and my house burned to the ground. But the fire killed all the fleas.

[sheilacrabtree]

I bought a small desk lamp that you can bend down and an oblong plastic bowl. Only need a good squirt of dawn and hot water. Works well.

[Mochiiqui]

I’m not dirty or my house it’s just the pets and outdoors that they go to and come back. I really hate fleas

[terryshinneman]

if you have hard wood floors pine sol is the best of the rest i know tried everything this is the way they went away they hide in the cracks of the floor soak mop floor more than one time

It's not that THEY bother me, it's the all night parties, dancing on my butt, crawling up my nose...

[davidhefner]

If the fleas are attracted to light then be safer and use a small flashlight. Perhaps they are attracted to heat instead of the light.

[terimaue]

You can use a desk lamp instead of a candle.

Can I mop my floor with dish washing liquid? Will it kill them

[bevila]

If you have pets cats or dogs dont have any carpets that where the fleas eggs breed also have leather settees sofas not made with material

[theopalexpress]

Salt does work especially when you soak the floor with soapy water. Preferably use concentrated dawn dish soap with the salt still on the floor. It will trap those little bastards. Leave the salt for a couple of days on the floor, depending how bad the infestation is. After a few days of the salt being on the floor, leave the salt an start spraying the dawn dish soap water mix. Until you see light glaring off the floor or saturate but not too much. Leave that for a couple of days. This works. Sandfleas are a pain

If you have wall to wall carpet, good luck, but if you have hardwood floors, you have to find out where the fleas are breeding. A small area rug maybe. Once you get rid of the breeding ground, just mop up the area and the fleas are gone until your pet comes back in. My cat stays outside during flea season, and I can get rid of any problem areas pretty easy without all the magic tricks. The thing with the laundry detergent doesn't get at the root of the problem and wont eliminate the fleas if you don't get rid of the breeding ground. Any affected rugs/blankets/fabrics that you want to save that are flea ridden, submerge them in water... let them soak... use the laundry detergent in the water and drown the fleas for at least an hour or two; or put them outside for a week or so and they will die being exposed by the cooler air at night. Just some other options that work for me, that really don't cost anything and wont make a mess.

Ive tried allsorts. Foggers including doing my car. My face crawling at times and have no pets. I feel like I'm the pet for these horrid things. I wouldn't mind everybody else ok no bites just me. It's like an endless nightmare.
