Flea Spray For The Home

I’ve been using this since last year after buying from a stall at a dog show so glad I can order on Amazon now! Smells great and I use it as it’s safe to use around children and pets, great to use on the dogs bed and doubles as a freshen up for the dogs bedding and rugs etc… has worked well and haven’t needed to use anything else.

No chemicals great product need to repeat every 8 weeks

My cats current have fleas and I have tried so many different products to try and get rid of them around the home this is by far the best product I have bought it works within seconds. I sprayed it directly on a flea to test the effectiveness and withing a one minute it was dead I will be stocking up great effective product

Doesn’t work. Very disappointing

We thought to try The Pet Guru 'Free From Fleas Household Spray' as we are a multi-cat household and fleas are a constant issue; trying to find effective solutions does appear to be a challenge.The product presents very well in a smart and professional looking black bottle of 500ml. The labelling is easy to read with good use of contrasting colours. It states that the use is for fleas, mites, and ticks, that it is powerful and fast acting, and it claims to be a pet-friendly and stain-free formula. It also claims to be a natural remedy using lemongrass, catnip, and quassia. It states it uses high quality essential oils, and plant and herb extracts, with a calming scent of lemongrass and lavender. There are contact details on the bottle for The Pet Guru.The directions for use advise to spray the product on soft furnishings around the house and to allow it to dry. The product should then be reapplied every third day for nine days to break the reproduction cycle. There also is a clear list of warnings. The product is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) free (these are surfactants / detergents), paraben free (these have similar effects as estrogen and disrupt hormonal balance), cruelty free, and vegan friendly.The manufacturers have also thought about end of product life with regard to making it with plastic that is apparently dyed in a particular way to help it get scanned and identified as recyclable rather than being missed and ending up in landfill.My first issue is that this product is described a pet-friendly and pet-safe, when it, in fact, contains ingredients which are highly toxic and potentially lethal for cats, depending on dosage and exposure—although this is addressed by Pet Guru in the questions section of the Amazon item page, I feel that the product description gives the false impression that nothing in this product could possibly harm pets and that it can be used liberally around them and where they lay, which is, in fact, not the case.The active ingredients are: Catnip and Lemongrass essential oils to repel; Rosemary and Lavender essential oil to deter; Quassia bark, which is anti-inflammatory and anti-parasitic. Essential oils are highly toxic and dangerous for cats, they can build up in their system and adverse effects may be delayed and not noticed until it is too late. Lemongrass essential oil, in particular, is considered fatal to cats.With the above in mind, we feel there is an issue with this product's directions. The warning states to avoid animal consumption (i.e. it should not come in contact with their fur as it will then be ingested), however, the directions do not explicitly state that this product should be left to dry prior to allowing your pet back in the vicinity of the treated area to ensure safety (as similar products do). Furthermore, there is absolutely no dosing guide i.e., how much to spray for a given area. Without this, it is difficult to ensure that the product is used within safe levels for cats (and to assess just how far the one bottle will go). This is especially important as the concentrations used are not specified. Ultimately, I find it hard to trust that any product with essential oils can be used fresh around cats and feel that there simply isn't sufficient specific information to give confidence of usage.At the time of writing this product retails at £19.99, which is a high price-point for 500 ml of product.This could be a safe and effective product for the elimination and prevention of fleas around the household, but is let down by the specifics in the directions to ensure the safety of pets.

No strong after smell and safe too use on furniture rugs carpet and bedding. Cat's are able to walk lay on the surface after applying

Bought for my daughters cats and she's said it worked initially but has failed, despite using as instructed, to keep emerging generations from hatching

Followed instructions, used other products in conjunction to assist rescued cat get rid of fleas. Tigger loved the product, might be the catnip, the spritzer contains great ingredients.
