Flea bombs are among the best way to get rid of fleas, ticks and other pests that may be living in your home. Both humans and pets can carry the fleas into the home where they nest in the rug as well as in any type of upholstery. Not only do the fleas nest and live, they also bite any pet or human that may come in contact with them.
We will discuss a little bit about flea bombs for use in the house and keep those fleas away for a long time.

What insects do flea bombs target?
Flea bombs for the house usually target both young and mature fleas, flea eggs as well as cockroaches and mosquitoes. The thing about flea bombs is that if for some reason the vapor did not spread to an area inside a wall or inside a couch, any insect that was exposed usually carries the chemical back to the nest. once the chemical is inside the nest, it is easily spread to other insects that may be living there.
How long do flea bombs last?
The flea killer sprays and bug bombs usually will remain effective for about half of a year. Obviously some bombs work better than others as far as how long they will remain effective. They remain effective in the home so long because the chemicals remain in a powdered form and create a nice protection against further insect outbreaks.
What is the typical coverage area for a flea fogger?
Unlike common flea sprays that you make pickup at your local store such as the raid flea aerosols, flea foggers will cover an average area of about 750 square feet per unit. It is quite common to place a flea fogger in each room up to 4 rooms and fog the whole house.
Flea sprays do work well, particularly the raid flea aerosol that I mentioned, but if you have a full outbreak in the house, you really need a lot of coverage to do the job correctly.
What is the typical usage?
Generally you will want to make sure to cover any food for you or your pets and make sure that no chemicals can get into them. Make sure to unplug any electrical devices that you are not going to be needing for at least a day, such as tv’s, cable boxes, microwaves etc.
Flea bombs are quite easy to use and anyone can use them really. You simply place the bug bomb in the middle of the room, with the windows closed, turn it on and walk away. You generally want to stay out of the house for about half a day, or 6-8 hours. Now, that may seem like a long time, but you will be destroying any chance of any insects living in that home for at least 7 months to a year!

Measures to prevent fleas in the home
Once you’ve flea bombed your home, you will want to take a couple of easy measures to prevent the fleas and other insects from returning to your home. They are very basic, but really can mean the difference between bugging you house in another couple of months.
Also, cleaning your floors with some sort of good antibacterial, you have to really pay attention to cracks and connection points where cabinets join the floors, fleas love to lay eggs in these hard to reach areas.
Flea bombs are great for getting rid of all kinds of bugs and insects as well as giving you peace of mind in knowing that you are living in a safe home for both your family and your pets. It is such a clean and fresh feeling coming back to your newly de-bugged home for the first time. You can buy flea bombs online at many places, I recommend it over your local store because of price as well as quality.
