Natural Flea Remedies

I've read about a few different natural flea remedies, but which one to use? Which actually work? Which are safe? Which have you used with success?

I did it for about 10 years when I had indoor outdoor kitties, now only indoor, so no need any more but it was a life savor!!

How I got rid of fleas and bugs from my home

You will need to purchase a simple bug/fly zapper; the type you use on a patio to kill flying insects. You can buy a small one that will cover a large area of your house at most home improvement stores for as little as 20.00-30.00 dollars. For faster results you can use one bug zapper for each room. However the fleas do gravitate to the bug zapper’s light once night sets in and all the lights in your house are out. So one should work for a small home, just make sure to place it in the room where the most fleas are seen or felt. Place the zapper on the floor in a corner behind a piece of furniture so kids and pets won’t play with or bother it. Set it on a plate or pie tin for easy cleaning up of the zapped bugs, you will be killing all bugs in your home as well, and then plug it in. Remember, it is a piece of electrical equipment. You have to use caution in where you put it. At night the fleas automatically want to go to a light, when they hop in to the bug zapper light they get fried! You can actually hear little, zits, zits when the fleas are getting zapped! All GONE! Keep the carpet vacuumed daily until your flea problem is under control, this will help tremendously in getting the fleas eggs out of your home and carpet faster!! I am not responsible for misuse of the above item. Use full caution in placing your bug zapper to the safest place. It will work for months, even years; it will continue to kill bugs in your home as long as the light is on. The bulb can be replaced once it burns out. The light bulb can be purchased at most home improvement stores. http://www.samstores.com/_images/product s/FLOWTRON_BK15.jpg

Kills and repels fleas
Flea and tick spray for cats and kittens
Natural ingredients

I cannot afford the expensive stuff from the vet, and the Hartz and Sargeants just aren't working well.

Have any of you tried home-made or natural remedies that worked for fleas?

I found Sulphur Tablets,are VERY effective,so have many other dog owners. This will relieve Itchiness & will Kill,Fleas,Mites,lice & any other external Parasite.These Tablets are fairly cheap(£5.99 for a 100 tablet bottle).Or Tea-Tree Oil is incredibly effective too. So far i have found *Listerine Mouthwash* to be THE BEST at this job,its the cheapest out of the lot & is probably the most effective. So is Apple Cider,mixed together they are unstoppable!

I have used products from my vet for fleas, however would like to use something natural instead. What are the best combinations of herb or essential oils to use?

brewers yeast is a good flea repelent and cedar chips
