Traps are considered to be an effective method for eliminating adult fleas indoors: They are attracted by the combination of baits and the adhesive agent won’t let them out. According to the scientists from the University of Florida, “Fleas will gravitate towards sources of warmth and light. Adult fleas are highly mobile and are attracted to the traps while foraging at night.” Let’s summarize our review and sum up which products are best for treating various indoor and outdoor spaces? NB. Mind that just like bed bugs, fleas mutate and certain types of them acquire the ability to resist insecticides. This is particularly evident in the research of the National Center for Biotechnology Information, which states that “Ctenocephalides felis [cat flea] resistance has been reported to: carbamates, organophosphates, pyrethroids, pyrethrins, organochlorines, and fipronil – more categories than any other flea species.” The UC IPM Program specialists add: “Products for eliminating adult fleas outdoors are somewhat limited because many field populations of cat fleas are resistant to pyrethroids such as permethrin.” Users report that the product can completely clean the yard of fleas in one application – but even in this case, there’s no harm to continue using it as a preventive measure. It would be particularly useful when you have a lot of pets at home that spend time on the street and you do not want to get fleas in your house again after their treatment.

You can determine how much spray you need by considering how often you plan to use it and how large the flea infestation is. If your pets spend a lot of time outside and you anticipate needing to reapply the flea spray monthly, weekly, or daily, opt for a large container. However, if you have a flea issue in a specific area, you can get just enough spray to treat it.
