Indorex Household Flea Spray – Complete Home Protection Against Fleas

Fleas are a persistent problem that can quickly infest a home if not properly managed. They not only cause discomfort for pets but can also bite humans, leading to irritation and allergic reactions. Effective flea control requires treating both the pet and the environment where they live.

Indorex Household Flea Spray is specifically designed to target fleas and their life stages within the home. It provides a long-lasting solution that helps to prevent re-infestation, keeping your home safe and comfortable for both pets and family members.

Understanding Flea Infestations in the Home: Fleas are resilient parasites that thrive in warm, humid environments.

Indorex Household Flea Spray – Complete Home Protection Against Fleas

Fleas are a persistent problem that can quickly infest a home if not properly managed. They not only cause discomfort for pets but can also bite humans, leading to irritation and allergic reactions. Effective flea control requires treating both the pet and the environment where they live.

Indorex Household Flea Spray is specifically designed to target fleas and their life stages within the home. It provides a long-lasting solution that helps to prevent re-infestation, keeping your home safe and comfortable for both pets and family members.

Understanding Flea Infestations in the Home: Fleas are resilient parasites that thrive in warm, humid environments. Once they find their way into a home, they lay eggs in carpets, upholstery, bedding, and cracks in flooring. These eggs hatch into larvae, which then develop into pupae before emerging as adult fleas. This life cycle can make infestations difficult to eliminate without targeted action.

While treating pets with appropriate flea medication is essential, it only addresses part of the problem. Approximately 95% of a flea infestation exists in the environment as eggs, larvae, and pupae rather than on the pet itself. Therefore, environmental treatment is critical for effective flea control.

How Indorex Household Flea Spray Works

Indorex Household Flea Spray is formulated to kill adult fleas and prevent the development of flea eggs and larvae. It works through a combination of active ingredients:

  • Adulticide: The spray contains permethrin, an insecticide that kills adult fleas on contact. This rapidly reduces the number of fleas in the home, helping to alleviate the immediate problem.
  • Insect Growth Regulator (IGR): Indorex also includes pyriproxyfen, an insect growth regulator. This ingredient disrupts the flea life cycle by preventing eggs and larvae from maturing into adult fleas. By stopping the development process, it helps to break the cycle of infestation.
  • Long-Lasting Protection: Indorex Household Flea Spray continues to protect the home for up to 12 months. This extended action ensures that any new fleas introduced into the environment are quickly dealt with before they can establish a new infestation.
  • Targeted Application: The spray is suitable for use on carpets, rugs, soft furnishings, and pet bedding. It is important to treat areas where pets spend most of their time, as these are the locations most likely to harbour flea eggs and larvae.

Indorex Household Flea Spray is odourless once dry and does not leave a sticky residue, making it convenient for household use. It is important to note that it should not be used directly on pets.

How to Use Indorex

Effective use of an environmental flea spray involves a few key steps to ensure maximum results:

  • Preparation: Before applying Indorex Household Flea Spray, vacuum the home thoroughly, paying particular attention to carpets, under furniture, and along skirting boards. Vacuuming helps to remove some of the eggs and larvae and stimulates flea pupae to hatch, making them more vulnerable to the treatment.
  • Application: Shake the can well before use. Hold the can approximately 50cm away from the surfaces and apply a light, even spray over all carpets, rugs, soft furnishings, and pet bedding. Do not soak the surfaces. Focus on areas where pets frequently rest, such as sofas, beds, and warm, dark corners.
  • Ventilation: After application, leave the treated areas vacant and allow them to dry for at least an hour. Ensure good ventilation by opening windows and doors.
  • Follow-Up: Vacuum regularly after treatment to remove dead fleas and encourage any remaining pupae to hatch and come into contact with treated surfaces. Re-treatment may be necessary after 12 months or sooner in cases of severe infestation.

It is important to remember that while Indorex controls fleas in the environment, pets should simultaneously be treated with an appropriate veterinary-recommended flea product. Treating both the pet and the home ensures the best chance of eliminating an infestation and preventing future problems.
