User questions & answers

Question:	Is it safe to spray this on my bed
Answer:	I can't speak for the manufacturer nor am an exterminator, I haven't nor would I. Instead, I wash all of my bedding. As one who always uses extreme caution, I wouldn't think it is safe to use on a bed. I hope this answers your question.
Question:	I'm so confused. So spray it on the carpet then what..wait an hour then vacuum it all up? When can you let your pets back on the carpet
Answer:	You just spray it (on the carpet, furniture, bedding, etc) and you're doneI put our pets in another room while spraying. When the entire house is done, i give our petd the run of the house again. I generally have to repeat the process every 1 - 2 weeks. Did this all last summer and just started again this week...Aren't fleas a royal pain? !!!
Question:	Do i have to leave my house for hours or days if i sprayed every room? I used a whole 16 oz can
Answer:	You do not need to leave your home. The spray has a pleasant smell. I sprayed my house to two consecutive days and didn't have any problems.
Question:	Is this a spray or fogger? on the can it looks like a fogger
Answer:	It is a spray. If you spray all of your rooms at once then it looks like a fogger. It works.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a fogger or an aerosol spray? Conflicting customer comments so I need to clarify
Answer:	I bought this product, but regretted. do not buy it, unbearably strong smell that remains strong for a few days after application, impossible to use indoor. Product doesn't work, flea will come back after 2 week or so. In the end, I bought dermatology earth power, and all fleas are gone. ps. to kill fleas, you must get a product with residual effect, which dermatology earth has.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do i need to wash off the carpet after spray? Or I only need to vacuum it
Answer:	I have 3 cats and I would put them in the basement when I used the spray. I learned the hard way that fleas can live inside your vacuum after you vacuum the rugs. I must have purchased 10 cans of Raid before the fleas were all gone, but this product worked when nothing else did.
Question:	Is there anything special i need to know for my cat
Answer:	I did not have to leave the house. What we ended up doing was one room at a time being careful to keep the cats locked out of the room(s) and also keeping at least 1 window open to air it out. After about 30 minutes we were able to open the room back up. Depending on your carpet's thickness you might want to wait a little longer.
Question:	do you have to leave the house during use
Answer:	I would recommend after. The process of cleaning should get rid of most of the eggs and fleas. Then I would use the flea spray just to catch whatever is left over
Question:	I am getting my carpets cleaned soon. Should I use the flea spray before or after the carpet cleaning
Answer:	Aerosol. It really works .

User questions & answers

Question:	I dont plan on spraying it on my cat but will she be ok if i use this on the rugs in the house
Answer:	one can, can help keep fleas down if you are proactive but they are in the yard too. I prefer to use the pills now.
Question:	How many cans come with this price of $16+? Seem pricey for one can (used to buy it in store
Answer:	Looking at the ingredients , it will probably attack the cats nervous system. Never use a product on cars unless it specifically states that it’s safe for cats.
Question:	Can this product be used on cats
Answer:	Seems Raid FLEA KILLER is effective against "Fleas, Crickets, Roaches, Silverfish, ticks" Raid FLEA KILLER PLUS CARPET & ROOM SPRAY is effective against "Fleas and hatching eggs, Ticks" which means it will control or inhibit some egg growth. Raid BED BUG & FLEA KILLER 1 is effective against "Bed Bugs, Bed Bug Eggs, Fleas, Dust Mites, Lice, Clothes Moths, Carpet Beetles" Each seems to be set up differently on how it's dispensed. Be it the sprayer focused on straight regular stream, the upside-down for carpet stream, or the pin-pointed directional sprayer for application on bed corners. Hope this helps, I had to go looking at the Raid . com site because of the differences in what they sell.
Question:	What's the difference between this and the Carpet and Room Spray
Answer:	It's a spray so it's going to set in the carpet, it would be counter productive to wash it off. But I would recommend vacuuming after about an hour. I mostly used it on non-compete surfaces

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the ingredients
Answer:	Under "Important Information" it states: "Active Ingredients: Peppermint Oil...0.20%, Eugenol (from Clove plants)...0.46%, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (plant-derived)...1.78%, Inert Ingredients* ...97.56%, *Water, Sodium Benzoate (preservative widely used in foods)." I believe the ingredient list given by "anonymous da" is for the dog version (https://www.amazon.com/Vets-Best-Natural-Flea-Spray/dp/B003PRI6OC). I haven't purchased either, just going by the information given on the product pages.
Question:	Would this work for rabbits
Answer:	I am not sure I would call your vet, just on a side note this did not work on my cats.
Question:	I read that pepperment oil is harmful to cats-what is everyone's take on this
Answer:	Most essential oils are toxic to cats. Normally we, and other animals, have an enzyme in our liver to break down the components of essential oils. However, cats do not have this enzyme. So, the toxic components of the oils biomagnify (build up) over time, and cause severe liver damage, neurological issues, immune system failure, and eventually death. Think of it this way, dogs cannot have too much chocolate for a very similar reason. Their bodies were not designed to digest and break down cacao like ours is. Eventually, too much chocolate will kill them.
Question:	What is the difference between this product (for cats) vs the same home spray marketed toward dogs? And why is this one so much more expensive
Answer:	Brittany's answer is not exactly correct. Close, though. The "cat" version simply reduces the amount of clove oil (eugenol) and the surfactant, sodium lauryl sulfate. Thank you to Vet's Best for being on top of that. The "cat" version will work just fine on dogs and as a spray for bedding and carpet. It is cedar oil that is toxic to cats (and who else?) and this product does not contain that.

User questions & answers

Question:	Hello. Does this kill flea eggs too or juts adults
Answer:	Yes! this product DOES kill flea eggs also! Now, I will say in my experience, you may need to apply this product to the animal as well as floor, furniture, and bedding a second time in order to be sure the eggs are really treated and to catch any "sneaky" ones that may slip by. It is really very effective and economical.
Question:	what does it contain
Answer:	the flea and tick home spray is a great smelling spray that is safe to use.it can even be sprayed directly on your pet!! it contains only peppermint oil,clove extract and sodium lauryl sulfate.i had a bad experience spraying other chemical flea preparations,and found this which is safe and a more natural mixture.i really like it and have had good results.
Question:	ticks
Answer:	YES!!!!. When I was new to this tick infested area I had more than 10 attached to me (slow learner). The dog also had many but since he was on tick control the ticks died. I knew that he had to have brought live ticks to my bed......I sprayed the "dirty" spread and left the product on for 24 hours. After that I sprayed myself and the dog every time we went out. NEVER since the spraying did he have any nor did I any ticks attached and there was no tick infestation in the house (I was concerned about that). The only product I used was Vet's best.
Question:	can this be used on cats
Answer:	It clearly says it’s for home and DOGS. It even states after what age the dogs should be sprayed. It does not state it can be used on cats. They do have a cat version of the spray.
