- In this video I talk about natural flea and tick control and the products that I have found that work best. There are lots of products out there and I've probably tried them all owner a pet supply store.
Products reviewed in this video:
Wondercide Flea & Tick Pet+Home Spray
Vet's Best Flea & Tick Spray
Diatomaceous Earth
Beneficial Nematodes

From my understanding the Diatomaceous Earth powder doesn't suck the moisture out of fleas. What it does is it sticks to the exoskeleton of the fleas and suffocates them (because insects like fleas, ticks, and bed bugs breathe through their exoskeletons). But it still is a safe method of insect treatment. But just the DE powder alone will not eliminate an infestation. You'll also need to treat the animals (ex: flea combing and bathing with a safe wash like Dawn) as well.
I lived in a ground floor apartment with a small patio. I spread fresh cedar chips all around the patio. It looked nice and was quite effective in keeping fleas away.
Wonderful video!! Be careful with the DE though. As a pool guy I can tell U there's a huge difference between Food-Grade DE and DE for pools; but, one thing they have in common is that they are extremely dangerous to inhale. That said, I will now subscribe to your channel! Blessings!! P.S. Don't sweat it about the length of your video, U covered a lot of helpful information in a reasonable amount of time.
It can also mess up your vacuum cleaner if applied over a large floor/rug area. It is like tiny razors. If your pet doesn't have a thick coat, it might be painful, but I don't know.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this valuable information… I just recently got a recommendation from a nurse friend of mine that Vet’s Beat works great. I have had two gorgeous beloved German shepherds die from large tumors (belly & brain!)and finally got wise to the fact that the pesticide flea & tick chews probably caused them. So I’m determined to take care of my animals with all NATURAL NON TOXIC products

Sorry for your loss
I'm sorry for your losses but this just makes me so angry! It's just common sense, if you wouldn't eat a pesticide once a month, then why do people think it's okay to feed their animals pesticides!?
It's literally insane.
@@jennak.8541same happens with vaccinations too! No human that I know has vaccines every year!
Same goes also for the food we feed them! Natural and fresh! Biologically appropriate raw food, (BARF) IS BEST!
I had been fighting a skin problem on one of my dogs with natural products for 5 years. He finally did so much damage I took him to the vet. Was given Simparica 3/28 , by October he had his first seizure , lost the use of his rear legs, eyes were not registering and he was slamming himself into the wall and the legs of my work bench. It took 4 seizures and 6 months for him to go back to normal. I've fed him everything from kangaroo , fish and now we're on to pork. He gets a flea combing 3x a day with a slathering of sunflower oil. I bought food grade diatomaceous earth , yesterday! So I'm glad to hear you recommend it. Thanks for the information.
That’s why I don’t even want to try simparica.
Thank you so much!! We are fairly new to Texas and our dog is infected with fleas for the first time in his entire 12-years of life. We did not want to use chemicals in our home. Your information is valuable and I really appreciate you sharing this. There are three stores in the area that sell the products that you mentioned so after taking our dog to the groomers today I will be picking up one of these products to try. Thanks again for this...Blessings!!!!
Thank you. I live in Texas and the fleas are very bad here. This video is very informative and I really appreciate it.
having a toddler now I am all about safety for him and our dog, this video really helps me keep a safe environment for them thanks for the information!
Thank you for taking the time out to share this information... very helpful
I have used the first 3 and they do work. As for the yard, use a hose bottle attachment, add dish washing detergent like dawn or Palmolive and spray the entire yard. This not only kills the fleas but it makes your yard very green
Moni Mo
How often?
it opens the cells in the grass, as well as cleans fungus off of grass. And smothers small and larger bugs.
Moni Mo I'm going to try your advice. It sounds very good, easy and cheap. Thanks
Great video. Than's for the tips. I've used the Vets Best spray and it does smell good.
Thanks so much! This was very helpful!
Thank you SO Much for giving naturalistic options to get rid of fleas etc. I bought a large bag of food grade DE and unsure of how to use it. Thank you for your guidance and your informative review.!
Thank You so much! I can't wait to get mine!
I appreciate all 9 minutes and 23 seconds...my pets/grandchildren are worth it. Thank you for this info...ordering some now.(=
Thank you so much for making this video! Ive been pulling my hair for the past couple months trying to figure out good products!
You are very welcome! I hope you have better luck now. :)
from all the products is best and work fast
Me too...this video was a God send!!!
So once again,. WHERE CAN I PURCHASE THESE PRODUCTS BESIDES IN CALIFORNIA
She said online
Thanks! I'd never heard of nematodes, but that sounds like a good idea. Going to look into that.
Hi, there!! 😊🌸 I'm right down the freeway..San Diego .. I''ll have to try your pet store one day -
I tried to use that diatomatious earth a couple of times, but I have copd and massive allergies from pollen so I had to stop using it in my dog's food.
Thank you for your video!! Have a nice day!! 😊🌸
The hazard of DE is inhalation hazard cause lacerations in aveoli. Be sure to read on on routes of exposures and safe handling.
Thank you for responding to my question
Thank you for taking your time to share this with us , 10 minutes is not too long when you think you are explaining properly your idea ,thanks again .
Cesar Aguirre I agree! Needless to say, it's FREE advice!

Good thing for home is the flea trap with light.. sticky pads once it's time to replace simply use water with tiny bit of dish soap and not waste money on the replacement sticky pads. Can get the tiny lights even at Dollar store with 3 bulbs. Trying to use the cookie sheet with light over it is asking for pets to get it spilled etc but buying the actual flea trap ONCE u can then have perfect light not having to worry if light and heat is correct distance to draw fleas toward it. Just check each day to be sure it keeps water in it.. I got flea trap for $15 at Home Depot but it's a one time purchase for perfect container for water n soap from then on to add in the tray
Thank you for the information. Sorry I didn't watch your video before I put Advantixx 11 on our dog. He is having a real hard time. I just gave him a bath with mild shampoo with Lavender oil. Will definitely use all natural products in the future.
Thank You! Obviously, you TRULY CARE about what's BEST for our ENTIRE family (both 2 & 4 legged members)! I sincerely APPRECIATE & RESPECT you for CARING & sharing your knowledge! Best Wishes 2u & your family!🤗

We use this. It has a strong Oder that is sometimes a little overwhelming but it works.
Awesome video! I just purchased Vets best and I do like the smell. Not sure if its working yet, but I am definitely purchasing the wondercide as a backup.

I have used the Natures Best and it works really good. Also my cat loves the stuff, they roll in it.
Very nice video, good info thanks for sharing.
aphotowarrior too long . Get to the point.
Thanks for the information. The Nematodes sounded fantastic! I Subscribed and will check out your website.
HI. Thanks for sharing. Very nice video. - Only thing Id add is that diatomaceous earth works by scratching, slicing through the waxy outer layer and then they dry out. So might want to be careful when breathing.
Thank you. Your video has been very helpful.
Thanks to take your time to share this with us. Can i use it on my sofa, mattress, couch?
Thank you for making this great video thank you for taking the time and explaining everything appreciate it from a local person here in San Diego will be in your shop soon thank you I don't know if it's still open let me know thanks
Thank you for this video. Very helpful. I have used the Vets best but my dog seems to have a problem with it. He may be allergic to it his skin seems to get very hot after I put it on him. I will try one of the products you talk about here. Thank you
Thank you, very helpfull!
thank-you - enjoyed your presentation. I totally agree with "natural methods". Both pet and human need to cover nose when applying - it will help. You can mix salt with DE, and apply. It is safe. Instead of it "blowing in the wind" (dusty), I find mixing it with water, in a spritz bottle, does the trick as well - without harmful breathing issues. It will dry quickly. (oh - a little in water mixed - will help pets internally as well - not muddy, just tsp in 2 cups - mixed? - should be fine. It will settle below. You can stir periodically as you add water daily.) thanks or sharing...

Thank you for a great informational video! :)
Great vid! Thanks! Careful on you or your pets, inhaling the diatomaceous powder!
Lovely- thank you!❤️🐾❤️
Thank you for all the information can i use it on my mattress, couch?
Wondercide is amazing! I have 5 indoor dogs and this stuff works great. I actually like the scent.
@IBPet Thanks for the info! I have a flea problem right now and its driving me and my family up a wall. Regarding the Diatomaceous Earth, would ground salt have the same effect or not as well?
I used DM earth on my dog a few years ago. It was horrible, she was so itchy for a long time. Too drying, for her skin, it works, well for other suggestions you made.
Thanks
Hi and thanks for the information. Very informative. I have been asking my vet, and she only tell me the most expensive things on the market. Which is the toxic crap, LOL
I really appreciate your information and thank you so much.
I think this is a good video overall except I wish people would quit saying Demetrius earth is "completely" safe just because it's food grade. It is NOT!!! It is NOT safe to inhale! It's also not good to get in their eyes. Please do your homework thoroughly people. Dogs sniff around on themselves all the time and may even sniff Demetrius earth they find around the house or yard that you put out for pest control. If animals were given the same value as humans there would be people getting sued for saying it is safe to put on them.
BTW, if it's not food grade it can very easily be deadly! Non food grade (like is used for pools for example) should NEVER be eaten or inhaled in any quantity! Just because it's "natural" doesn't mean it's safe! There are 100's if not 1000's of "natural" things that are bad for us and our pets and in many cases deadly!

It can Irritate the lungs. But... it would not kill you!!! Lol.
@@jeffroid_tv yes it will kill you! It is a silica which absorbs moisture and turns into a cement type of consistency and cakes the lungs causing suffocation. It will also cause one hell of a lung infection so perhaps you should educate yourself a bit better.
@@jeffroid_tv it's common sense you fool and I refuse to try and prove a negative. Exactly where is your proof that refutes my facts? Why not spend an afternoon working in the ER like I do on a daily basis and then spew more of your toxic knowledge!
@@zebfox011 Lmao! Yea... I did not think so! Bye Felicia!!! NEXT!!!
i've come upon your video quite late here as i am just now having flea issues in my yard because of stray cats...i did use the vets best lawn and yard spray before seeing this, and that has helped a lot, so far only third day. i have also vacuumed my house daily, and spray a homemade spray that i made with peppermint oil, clove oil and a little neem oil all over my house daily (i know the vets best has two of those oils). i was, however, wondering, if i could still get the nematodes for the yard and garden, or if the vets best would kill them too? thanks so much for such an informative video using natural and safe products!!!! :)
Would you happen to know if VapoRub is good for ticks, mosquito's, etc ???
Thanks for sharing.
Diatomaceous earth is great But breathing it in can cause lung problems for us as well as our pets, so when applying it to them or to bedding, yard, etc. it must be done carefully as to not breathe the dust!
My friends and I purchased food grade diatomaceous earth and I put half teaspoon per cat in cat food with "gravy" every morning. My friend puts it in her dog's water. I also drink it in my tea daily. Her 15 year old dog has zero issues with parasites or skin. Vet says DE is amazing for her.
It's so important that people understand this, especially for people who already have breathing problems
Will it wash away in the yard when watering the yard (applied to the yard)?
I've had great success with diatomaceous earth. I mix it with water and spray it where needed. Once dry, it leaves a nice film of the D.E. - this meeting works great for carpet, walls (inside and out), bushes and even the yard. It wakes away with rain, but normal morning dew doesn't seem to affect it. I've also applied it directly to my cats using a very wet washcloth, which worked pretty well. D.E. is very, very safe to eat and in fact has a lot of benefits if you do (kills parasites, detoxes, helps with digestive issues like IBD in cats, and several others). It's cheap and it's arguably the safest method that actually works to get rid of insects (ants, fleas, ticks, spiders, cockroaches, slugs etc, etc)
@@dsandoval9396 Yes
I am about to buy the Vets best flea and tick now.
I hope it works for My Puppy.
Great info.
I use diatomaceous Earth but ( here in Vermont ) only early spring and late fall and careful where you put it!...It kills ANY insect that comes in contact with so: even beneficial ones like bees, caterpillars/butterflies etc.
Thank you for this video very informative but can you let me know the name of the powder. Thank you
Thanks for posting. I just found a flea on my little boy, he was scratching like crazy and I've gotten a few bites myself. I definitely like the natural remedies. Thanks for the suggestions.
I add green clay powder and neem leaf powder to my DE . Great video.
Thank You that was very informative 😇
Thanks for sharing the informative video.
I could watch more of your videos. You're easy on the eyes. 😉
I had a cat, and found out I was allergic to her. I had to get rid of her, but she had fleas. I just bought vets best. I was wondering how it smelled. Thanks for the video.
I am curious about the last product. Do you apply just once, and they will live in your yard for ever?
thanks for the video! I've been to imperial Beach!
Very helpful and informative video...
Thanks a lot for sharing ....
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS INFORMATION WITH US! This is going to be able to help so many animals from being poisoned like many stories I've heard in the past from harsh Flea and tick topical chemicals. It was very interesting and you should have made it a 20 min video just to piss off the dumbed down miserable dimwits who are probably impatient with everything and anyone.
I love your attitude! What a joy!
Thank you for this video! What do I do for my dog if the food grade DE makes her skin dry? I plan on using a small amount but I am scared that her skin will become too itchy and dry.
Putting the DE in their food can make them constipated so watch for that. I have put DE in the fur in places around the neck or back of my cat but not too much and not rubbed into the skin. It can also be sprinkled around baseboards where insects tend to crawl. It cuts through the insect exoskeleton and they die of dehydration.
I have a 3 Mo. GSD mix. I’ve had many GSD previously and haven’t found anything to keep flies off their ears. Do you have any suggestions.
I live in Greater LA area.
Thank you. Great info.
Houston skimming by. Just started DE on my boxer an working great. Been a month an no fleas. I advise using a glove while putting down the back to the tail then around the neck. Less is more. Rub in under hair. Done. Nice video info. TY
Btw, if buck mountain's product is called something dust. I can't recall. If diat dehydrates how is it safe to ingest? Nitenpyram does not interrupt the lifecycle . Sorry, that was a typo.
how much water do you put in benificial nematodes. thanks. what a great video
Is it possible to dilute this with water and spray it around my garden for the same affect
Thanks for the info! Also the laughs. I'm going to UPtalk, in almost every SENtence, and sound like I'm asking endless QUEStions. LoL
I've used Diamateous Earth on my pets & they scratched more than just from the fleas. So it really must have a drying effect or could it be from the tiny shells in the product?
The sprays work great for my dog that has a shorter thinner coat but my other dog is a pom mix and the sprays dont penetrate his fur enough. Have you tried supplements or the liquids you add to water?
How to get rid of fleas that's in the bedroom? My cat sleeps at the foot of the bd!
Do you spray it on and comb through?
can i use this spray on myself?
Great video, what are your thoughts on dog and cat vaccines? Which ones are harmful and which ones are good for pets?
great info... thank you.
I have used wondercide on my pet floorboards and bedding. I find it works well in combination with capstar or fastcaps, both of which have nitenpyram (a chemical, the active ingredient). Nitenpyram kills fleas n ticks on your pet but does by intercut the life cycle. I like it because you can give it as often as once a day and even to puppies, kittens and pregnant dogs n cats. I am 'assuming' it can't be that bad because of this. Very helpful if you're feeling very desperate and do t want to opt for the ultimate poisons. I've tried diatamaceous earth/silica which is made with yarrow by Buck Mountain. Not very effective for my dog which hikes in the deep woods and likes get really dirty. Btw, I was told that if using Nitenpyram, the con is that if your pet does have a bad reaction there is no antidote, but I have used it with no problems so far. Nothing really works, not Vets Best, nor any of the 'naturals' unless combined with effort on your part to recognize this will be a long process over time of cleaning, washing, washing and cleaning over and over and over. It's exhausting. Spray, sprinkle, treat or what have you, your car, all bedding (yours and your bestie's) the corners of your dwelling and anywhere your pet spends time in, such as under that couch or on the kitchen mat where they live to hang out. One thing I have yet to try which worked really well a few years ago was Kleen Green. It's an enzymatic killer which works on the exoskeleton of the insect. Harmless to mammals, it somehow kills insects. I was weeding deep roots with bushes up to my waist, initially having sprayed myself with Kleen Green, and hours later emerged tickless! This product can only be ordered online. Do your research and try it out. I keep planning to get it but haven't yet. Can't wait to see if it works it's wonders again.
good video, but have you tried any of the products?
I would like to know your opinion on ultrasonic flea and tick repeller?
Where can I purchase the little worms and the natural powder flea that dries out bugs?
do you know if all wondercide tick and flea varieties also kill mange or is it only the "Cedarwood" scent that you were reading on the back label?
I just recently got a terrible flea problem, and I have 3 cats, and carpet! help! which one is the total BEST? I need something that will get rid of as many as possible as soon as possible!
WAS JUST WONDERING,CAN YOU PLEASE ALSO DO A VIDEO ON AT HOME CARE FOR “WORMING” A 3/4 MONTH OLD KITTEN? Thanks For Sharing
You should get paid for all the things you have to sale here! I love the effort! Just not what I wanted to watch, or looking for!
I will pass on the Comfortis. My dog is now 14 and doing well, I was using Comfortis because he didnt get sick from it however.... a year ago I gave him his Comfortis tablet and he had some seizures. My vet worked on him and got it cleared up but she said this is a very strong and aggressive chemical in Comfortis. So I stopped using it and threw out the remaining tablets. Now trying any natural flea control I can find.
Q: What works for CIGGERS ? Preferably for humans and cats ? Local VET said ciggers don't bother cats ?
Thank you! These days I have a feral cat visiting me. :) I will use diatomaceous earth -thanks! How many tsp/tbsp do we mix with the food?
I asked my Vet last week about DE Food Grade and they said they would not recommend it. I’m doing research on the Wondercide now.
Hi I have 2 huskeys thick fur n one rat terrier..so if I apply DE on them will it dry out their skin.how often do I use this.n once applied do I give them a bath after his long does it stay on pet
I heard of NexGard killing dogs, is that true? we use to apply my dog K9 advantix for fleas and ticks, it worked well, but we have a toddler now at home, and want to give him
Are these products ok for dogs with allergies
What is the shelf life of the wondercide spray? (is there one?) THanks
Does anyone know which of these products are safe to use on cats?
If Diatomaceous Earth can dry out a himans hand and hair while applying it to a pet how can a pet eat it? Wouldn't dry out there insides?
Great information on natural pet products. Thank you!
what are the inhalation risks of diatomaceous earth?
I use frontline plus on my cat and DE on floor and furniture. I have DE dust everywhere and it is visible. Once a week I vacuum and spray with pets+ vet. I've been doing this almost a year and no results.
please be careful with pets+vet lot of people allergic to it. I wear mask and gloves when I spray it and leave the room for a couple of hours until it drys otherwise my eyes, lips and tongue swells up.
Can you use diatomacious earth and nematodes at the same time? Wouldn't the DE kill the nematodes?
Hi what was that product on the Ziploc bag again and where can I get it at? I am having problems with ticks not only on my pup ,but they are also coming in the house and. I don't want them getting on my baby. I've tried so many things from store to natural and nothing works. It's driving me crazy.
I sprayed wondercide on my dog (lemongrass scent) and she started salivating and running. I may try a different scent to see if she is allergic to lemongrass.
Yeah I got this natural care + flea and tick home spray and it took me almost a week to get an answer to if I could spray it on my dogs and if it would hurt them if they licked it off smelled good but did nothing as far as getting rid of fleas I went and got some Happy Jack at tractor supply and yeah after one application I’m seeing fewer fleas ...
What do you think about coconut oil uses?
