@@feliciawhite674 I know it’s rare, but that stuff killed one of my German Shepherds.
I'm sorry for ur loss but its impossible to directly link deaths to things like prevention. And hopefully i filed with SIMPERICA and they helped you out cuz they will take care of you. Ive been working in the veterinary industry for many years and the claims jst arnt backed up for any deaths being linked to SIMPERICA its the safest prevention out there and maybe a link was found to it and im so so sorry for ur loss but underlying conditions are a risk for everything and the risk of heartwork or flea and tick related diseases r eay heavier than a 1 in a million Chance. Again sorry for ur loss but any death and claim of death related to simp is jst not backed up by any science
I have done this before it works great❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@papajoeknows8355 use dandruff shampoo and leave on 10 minutes and then rinse
We tried that years ago and it only killed about half the fleas. The best, 100% guaranteed way to get rid of ALL your fleas is to sprinkle table salt on your carpet and place bowls of water in each room, the salt dehydrates the fleas, they jump into the water a end up drowning. The salt breaks down into a fine powder without ruining your carpet and all you have to do is vacuum it up when you’re done. We had an infestation that was so bad the exterminator wanted thousands to to take care of and we did it for less then $10.
Do the cats not lick at the salt?
Food grade DE works too maybe even better.
For how long we have to place the bowls
Do we also have to sprinkle salt in water bowls
How long did it take until they where all gone?

God damn fleas. Damn them straight to hell. Every time I scratch I just get madder, my anger grows deeper. They will pay.
I sprayed for them a few days ago and it seems my problem is mostly gone. Gonna have to spray again in a few days though just to completely wipe them out. When I was coming through with my can of Raid they must've thought I was the Almighty Himself. I felt like a machine gunner in Vietnam.
Yeah. Here I am battling them AGAIN after I got them under control. I don’t even have pets but we had company who has a dog who had fleas! Found that out AFTER the fact. Now I’m struggling and I’m so itchy and frustrated.
if ur dog is the reason u have fleas give it comfortis all the fleas will die in an hour

Fleas like warm, the detergent breaks down the surface tension of the water, fleas are so light they can jump off of clean water, with much less surface tension they drown, excellent trick.
I think theres something in Dawn that actually kills them. Ive washed my dog with it when $12 a bottle pet shampoo didnt do anything and the Dawn kills them in a couple of minutes.

I did something similar years ago. My place was infested with fleas. At night, I put a big glop of maple syrup into a paper plate. Then I put it in the middle of the living room on the carpet. I turned off all of the lights & shined a flashlight onto the plate. They all jumped into the syrup & got stuck. It literally got rid of them all. I didn't see any more after that. :)
Does it work with honey as well?

Borax laundry soap kills fleas, leave it in your car 3 to 4 day to kill the hatching eggs then vacuum up
Lucky bastards
"Thanks for posting this because I tracked fleas in my car. They been eating my ass up while I'm driving!" ..........Lucky ass fleas!!!!
LOLOLOL
Wow, this really worked great! I used a battery powered led lamp over bowl of water with dawn, turned off the ceiling light and within fifteen minutes had about ten of the little bitters. Have just been moving it from room to room, cats have not bothered it. No mess. And the fleas are almost gone. Thank you so much for posting this method.
Lady of Summers Hill glad to hear it... keep in mind that there are also unhatched eggs, so you need to go through a cycle. We put traps strategically around the house and kept them going night & day until we were no longer catching any. Happy to say we are flea free and hope you will be soon too! ✊🏻
where did you find the battery powered lamp? Please
@@jazziecat2354 I just looked on Amazon. But any hardware store should have them. I believe they are referring to rechargeable LED lamps.
Geez...order Bravecto from Joe's Pet Meds for your cats and your flea problem is gone.
Jane Cat3 after they taste the soap they will leave it. They are a lil more conscious than my poor potty

What I have been using is a large flat metal pan that you can get at a feed store or farm supply that is used for feeding livestock or chickens. It is about 18" in diameter and 3 inches deep. I put about an inch of water mixed with some dish soap, and a candle in the middle. Set it in the middle of the room at night. The candle attracts the fleas, they jump at the candle, land in he water and sink. Works 100%.
I would just be real careful of the candle, if it was to fall over, it could burn your house down, and I would hate for that to happen. I'm sure you've taken precautions, but with an open flame there isn't enough precautions. Take it from an ex firefighter
@@ptxlvr7150 If it fell over it would fall into the water and be extinguished. I use a pan that is about 18" in diameter and a candle that is in a glass jar that can burn for days. As soon as one of the F'rs hits the water they sink like a rock to the bottom. It is so satisfying to watch them run around in a circle as they drown.
@@acdii Ok, if your sure, then I'm satisfied. but like I said, I've seen too many houses burn down because the residents weren't careful enough, I'm not trying to get in your business, just make sure you don't die in a house fire.
@@ptxlvr7150 if the candle fell over it would fall into the bowl of water
Maui Randall 10 inch candle in center of 18 inch diameter pan and the flame could hit the carpet. Candles are just flat dangerous. Cat could run by and knock it over and it doesnt fall like a tree but is projected. Flames get away from many people who lost loved ones saying “it was just a candle”.
Thanks for posting! had it on for about 9 hours & got about 50 fleas!!👍👍I'll use it for termites come termite season here!! Update: within several days i must have got several thousand fleas!!
Thank you sir! I've never dealt with them. It's been a monthly battle with these forsaken creatures. I have had a blood infection due to bacteria in my right leg from them. Definitely gonna try this!
You don't need Dawn, any dish soap/detergent will work. The detergent works in 2 ways. The first way is it breaks down the surface tension on the water. Fleas can be light enough to float on top of water, but the detergent makes the water wetter in essence and thus the fleas fall right into the water rather than being able to float and be dry. Now they can't breathe.
The second thing the detergent does is break down the waxy coating fleas (and other arthropods) have on their bodies. Insects and arachnids don't breathe through their face like most animals do. They have tiny holes in their abdomens called Spiracles. Their abdomens move in and out to exchange air much like our lungs expend and contact to do the same thing. With arthropods the waxy coating is supposed to protect the body from too much water absorbing through their exoskeleton and spiracles. The detergent breaks down that wax letting water seep into their body and spiracles so they drown.
I suggest you get some diatomaceous earth and finely sprinkle that stuff all over your floors, esp the carpeted ones. Diatomaceous earth is a fine gray/tan colored powder that is naturally mined from the earth. It is comprised of fossilized diatoms which were single celled creatures that lived in the oceans and still do. When fossilized their bodies are sharp, like broken glass though harmless to us. However, this dust is harmful to arthropods (insects, arachnids). When arthropods walk through the diatomaceous earth it sticks to them. As it coats their bodies it literally cuts through their exoskeletons letting air getting in where it's not supposed to and dries them out. It does the same thing to the eggs of the offending creatures.
Sprinkle this earth all over the floor using a fine sieve and close off that room for about 3 days. Keep pets out of rooms with the earth on the floor. Even though it's non toxic and natural, you don't want it in the eyes of your animals because their heads are much closer to the floors than ours are. After 3-4 days, vacuum the heck out of that room.
If you can seal the doors with tape, the fleas can't get out of that room. Try to do as many rooms as you can at once to kill as many fleas as you can at once.
I kind of miss having pets, but I do not miss flea infestations, or ticks.
SpiritBear12 wow, all very good information... thanks so much for taking the time to share!! 👍🏻
If you can't find diatomaceous earth, you can use plain old Borax. Definitely keep pets away from Borax even though it is also a product of the earth, you don't want your pets rolling in it and licking it off of their fur or getting in their eyes. Use it the same, sprinkle it all over the floors. What it does is it acts like salt and pulls moisture out of the bodies of the fleas and dries them up, same with their eggs.
You may have to do cycles of this as the fleas lay eggs, hatch, grow and do their life cycle again. It will take time to wipe them all out, so you have to be diligent! Bedding must be washed in really hot water and dried the same. The hardest thing to free of fleas is soft furniture like couches with fabric coverings. If you have vinyl or leather upholstery, it's easier to wipe out the fleas. Wash the animal's bedding in really hot water too. You have to wage an all out assault/war on them! If you slack in your attacks, they'll be back.
SpiritBear12 I’m a vet tech and dawn is the best one Because it’s the absolute safest for your pets. I would not recommend anything else than dawn.
I was waiting for the "Just kidding I made this all up, please like" at the end lol
Damn, what a great post... Thank you for taking the time to share this. Very useful and educational.
I have done this, but a bit differently. Instead of using a plate, I used a large bowl. And instead of using a lamp to make heat, I just used hot water. I used any kind of dish soap. I had great results. I trapped even more fleas than in this video, and in a shorter amount of time. I change out the water three times a day. It works very well.
Thanks will definitely try this out
I wonder if combining the 2 methods would work even better?
Wont the water go cold

Totally gonna try this..
How much of lemon & lavender to spray bottle???
Thank You😸😸😸
Really I gonna try this
LaughingblueSu lavender can be toxic for dogs. FYI
Doses are usually 10 drops of essential oil to 1 oz of water or Carrier oil but if you're using the spray bottle the kind that you get at the dollar store usually about 20 drops and the rest water.
This will not be harmful to pets if you don't directly spray it on them.
@@valmcturner where did you hear that from? I've heard only great things about lavender. I've not heard one thing about it being toxic to dogs
Very informative video ! Most people would prefer not to know how many fleas that their pets bring into their homes or they might be inclined to get rid of them !
Facts!!! I was thinking about buying a cat welp not anymore!
To prevent your pet from drinking it, you can remove the front grid of a fan and place over the plate of water. I also have a plant basket that worked well. Added benefit, it prevents the fan from accidentally being tipped over into the water dish
Are you undercover MacGuyver? :D
Great tip
Even plain old water works too but I'm going to give the dawn dish soap a try
Totally worked. Faith in youtube diyhacks restored. Thankyou.
I love effective non toxic solutions like this, and it's great to actually see the little pests that make life so miserable for dogs floating belly up in the soap and water. Two thumbs way up. Best flea control method I have seen, thank you.
This isnt a solution at all. A bowl of liquid isnt going to solve your houses infestation problem not even close to it.
@@eraldorh how do you solve it?
@@ethang9712 Hoover the floor to wake up the fleas that are in cocoons and then put flea powder all over the floor and leave it for 30 mins then come back and hoover again and proceed to hoover everyday for a week. Do this at the same time as you deflea your cat/dog with the pills which work best i feel.
These non toxic methods are total bullshit. There are far too many fleas and flea eggs in your carpet for a bowl of water/soap to fix the issue.

I just watched another video about washing clothes & the lady said fleas cannot drown or die from the detergent. Thanks for clearing this up for me & making this video!
Hi Joe! I just wanted to thank you SO MUCH for putting this video together for us! I have a pretty big house, and a 20 year old niece with a huge soft spot for homeless and unwanted cats. We currently have 9 (anyone want one?) and for the first time in 20 years, a HUGE flea problem. We started herb boxes at every window and door. After hours of research I found your video!! In two days our bowls have more fleas than water. We can't thank you enough!!!
Love from Florida - Michelle and family
Hey Michelle, I’m in Florida too, Orlando area. Sorry to hear about your flea problem, but glad to hear it’s working... we tried everything, and to be fair, everything did help. But when we started doing the traps it really started knocking them out. We kept the traps going day & night until they were gone. Another thing that seemed to help was to sprinkle baking soda on the carpets, then use s broom to sweep it in. Then repeat after every time you vacuum. The baking soda acts as a “desiccant” which dries out the eggs and fleas.
@@papajoeknows8355 Great! Thanks!!

Oh..
if those 20 fleas got blood they will live longer than 3 days
and those that bit you can lay eggs if they got blood from you they can lay upto 30 eggs each day.
You have to find the 30 eggs those 20 fleas that bit you laid.
they look like grains of sand.
600 grains of sand each day after they bit you
it will start all over again if you don't get the grains of sand
You can't just use the plate method you have to find the grains of sand- try vacuuming every where to get those grains of sand
You have to
or it will start all over again..
So once you did that, all the fleas were gone?
Been doing this for years. Only difference is I use an aluminum pie dish and any dish soap. It works great!
OMG YOU SAVED MY LIFE. 100% works guys....I just got a cat and she got flea when she went to the park....Now my room have fleas and I did this and as soon as I put down the plate a flea jumped into it... Amazing. Thank you so much Joe.

I read that adult fleas can only live a few days without a blood meal, It's the eggs that can take a long time to hatch?
Eggs can stay in a type of stasis for 154 days.

@@raeboyd5596 your neighbors may have them.
You don't have to use Dawn. Any soap or detergent will do as it breaks the surface tension on the water, the flea sinks and drowns. You only need a few drops of it too. The first one I set up there was a splash as I set it up! No bites since then. Simple and brilliant! I've used little battery operated floating candles and these work too.
I tried this idea and really works, I did it for about one month and catched about 500 fleas from the place I'm renting!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

AllgoodthingsXZ 1 The diatomaceous earth helps allot it gets them while they're still in the larval and egg stage.
So does washing your linens drapes throw pillows whatnot in borax
Oh my goodness!!! I cannot thank you enough for this video!! Thank you a million times. I only layed the plate down for 30 seconds and I already have 10 dead in it!!!!!
EmanuelFamilyVlogs glad it’s working for you! We kept the traps going day and night until they were gone... you have to go through a cycle where the existing eggs hatch and then head for the traps as well. Also it helps to sprinkle salt or baking soda on the carpets and use a broom to sweep it in. Wait a few days, then vacuum and repeat. The sodium dries out the fleas and eggs. Hang in there, you’re gonna beat them! 👌🏻
Papa Joe knows thank you so much again! Will do!
Hi Papa Joe, I just read all the comments below and it is surprising how people can be so mean. I will give this a try. I just found orphaned kittens and they brought fleas into our home. Thank you for this little tip.
Any person that records "how to" vids while at the wheel on random drives, gets my attention 100% of the time...You rock.
bombay067 lol ✊🏻
Thank you, thank you and THANK YOU!!! This REALLY works, and it's non-toxic to people and pets. Kudos to you, Papa Joe! I think you really DO know.
Tumble Bug happy to say we are finally flea free and hope you will be soon too! ✊🏻
It worked really good, its been almost 4 days with this project and everyday is less and less fleas in the plates. Love it thank you.. but I hired a pest control because it was too many fleas..I think the plate with soap works for occasionall fleas and my house had a plague.
You bet, glad to hear it! 👏🏻
How much did the pets control charge you ???
Flea control said I need to give them $329 dollars
I can recommend this. It's works. Plus if you vacuum everyday it's a bonus, trust me!
Thank you, fleas are very annoying.
ikr
people are more annoying than any bug pestilence👍
Great share. Really important to use same solution and wipe down all the floor base boards in every room. Cedar chips are also great to add to pet beds. My kids were always bringing home stray pets. So glad that compassion started there and moved onto helping people with sock's, blanket's and jacket's. Love the little things that grow big hearts.
Too cute
Years ago when i got my first puppy my house was so infested with fleas that when you went to crawl in bed it felt like static on your legs. I bombed the house 4 times. The fleas partied...lol...didnt kill one. I used raid flying insect spray...hold your breath and spray the entire room on the floor as you back out. Then shut the door. Repeat once aweek for about 4 weeks. All fleas...eggs...larvae gone. And i treated the dog
which raid, is it the one for fleas?
@@astroboy0383 he literally said 'flying insect spray'
I went over board with the flea and bedbug raid, waste of money
It works!!!! Tried last summer . Flea infection started at work ( wood workshop) they do love the saw dust. Took 1or 2 of them home in my socks while commuting on my bike . I have also at home a wood workshop 😊 and 3 cats. This trap works very well. The plastic tray I used with a candle in the middle was 40x30 cm and there was like hundreds of them!!! Thanks!!!!!!
It's important to use a white plate for more reflection. Mix the Dawn in a cup before pouring, it's a bit easier. You can just add a little water when it evaporates.You will have to move the plate from room to room or use more than one plate and repeat the process in two weeks as that is the cycle of reproduction. We have 7 indoor cats and it works, believe me! Be careful not to have the lamp too close to the plate, if the water gets too hot it will discourage the fleas, about 12 to 18 inches with a 40 or 60 max. watt bulb. Don't worry the cats won't touch it, they will stay clear! Good post, thanks!
Good advice thanks
Thanks I will try it today.
May i know specific kind of bulb . Led or normal bulb and what the exact color . White or transparent bulb ?
Thanks for this further information ❤. I was worried if my cat would want to drink it.
@@nhat6371 I would assume an LED wouldn't be hot enough
I read that 5% of the fleas are on the animal and the other 95% are in the house.
God no! Take it back
@@Iron_Thunderstorm well if you think of it, your animal IS inside the house as well, meanin 100% of the fleas ARE inside the house
@jorge hernandez Lmao, check mate
Oftin Wong dude are you fucking for real? Let’s leave you outside and say why would you leave IT outside pets deserve a warm bed too bitch
UNDERGROUND MUSIC lmaooooo
Sending positive vibes from Houston Tx
Thank you sooooo much
You bet, also look down in the description for other info & vids. 👍🏻
Thank you for sharing your awesome tips. Fleas are nasty to have in the house or on your beloved pet.
Thank you, the fleas are bad this year. Gotta try this.
Jenncam AMERICA FIRST they really really are
@@kiera3578 , i did try this and it worked great. They were all gone within a few days.
Yes they are extremely bad...ive never seen em this bad. Flea meds arent even working on my animals either. just too bad
Yeah this is strange you think it’s the global
Warming or is it Satan?
@@MissQOS i think they just had a good breeding year lol.
This does work really well, any dish soap works and you don’t need as much as he uses either. All the soap does is brake the surface tension of the water so the fleas sink to the bottom
I was just gonna post a question about soap, if it could b any kind...thank u for the answer!!...gonna get started with this now!!...it's been crazy this summer for fleas!!...and someone up above mentioned a spray solution for pets, so I'm gonna try that, too...
plz help me this method i m very worried
Thank you so much for this video. Much appreciated.
I've done that many times. Works very well.
This works! I've done this before. Thanks, for making this video.
Fwiw- l started treating our yard along with the dogs 15yrs ago and could count on one hand the low amount of fleas our dogs had since. Remarkable how much treating dogs & the yard both made, seven in the slow release form was a blessing.
Amazing video, weird how Dawn kills them so fast because I worked in a grooming parlor (bather) and it took awhile for any flea dip to kill them. Easier on skin than Dawn I guess? Great vid!
Update: Like to add you should always avoid eyes and ears when bathing animals.
Start at the neck, then quickly do their hind end and work your way to their mid section and let it soak several minutes before rinsing. Fleas will run inside every orifice as soon as water hits them so you have to be fast here.
Just remember:
1) "Never soak their head" to avoid water in ears. Water causes ear infections!
2) "Never" start washing one end and go to the opposite end". Never do that, as this chases fleas inside them that come back out later, nasty sorry but its true!
Rinse very well, dry soap makes them itch as bad as fleas did.
What did you treat your yard with. Fleas get worse every year. They are building a strong immune system 🤦♀️
Denise Wright I have to agree, in fact I spent $170 to get 3 months worth of topical frontline at petsmart for my dog & cat a few years ago & it didn't begin to get rid of the issue in theend I went to the vet & spent about $400 to have each of them treated they had to use a chewable tab that was even more expensive than the usual topical stuff I got at the vet because I'd already put frontline on them & that was one of the ingredients in the topical they normally gave me. I also sprayed the entire backyard & every baseboard doorway window in the house as well as putting off flea bombs in every room of the entire home. The vet said the fleas are mutating every year they are coming out with a new med to kill them it's insane & especially awful & expensive. It's definitely better to justthrow down at the end of summer & get the strongest chewable or topical the vet has to keep it fromever happening again, living in the city was the worst half the people don't ever give there animals the proper care they need & are just running around with animals covered in fleas & filled with worms it's extremely disheartening.
im seriously about to do this in every room of my house. i went to the vet and got flea medicine, so i gave all 4 of my cats a bath in their flea shampoo and put the medicine on them. i washed all of my bedding, vaccumed my carpets twice and washed my carpets, and now fleas are jumping off of my animals instead of dying from the medicine. thankyou so much for this i really hope it helps!
Zoë Rimel oh it’s works, just make sure you don’t use LED bulbs because they don’t put out any heat... fleas are like heat seeking missiles. We used the curly CFL bulbs and they worked great. Keep the traps going day and night until they are gone. You have to go through a cycle where the existing eggs hatch and then head for the traps. Also sprinkle salt or baking soda on the carpets and use a broom to sweep it in. Wait a couple of days then vacuum and repeat... the sodium dries out the fleas and eggs. Hang in there, you’ve got this. 👍🏻✊🏻
@@papajoeknows8355 How many days do we wait for before we vacuum the baking soda up?
@@heavensangel7882 wait a couple of days, then vacuum and repeat.
WOW! I have spent at least $75 in the past few weeks trying to get rid of my flea infestation! I don't even own a pet, it was from the previous property owner.
Thank you for sharing the video! I'm going to try this!
You bet. 👍🏻
Right on! Thank you for the tip . ❤
White vinegar and a flea comb work also. I also sprinkle borax on my carpet. My pets roll around safely while the fleas dehydrate and expire. Lol
Careful, Loba, if you have cats, as borax is highly toxic to them.
We need this as we have foxes and cats on our gardens. Again thank you
Just found out today that Tic Tac have fleas ☹️😱. Put coconut oil on him and see what happens tomorrow. As I search for more I found this video and would be a really big help to get rid more of those monsters! Thank you so much for sharing! 🙏
Thank you so much for posting this! The fleas have been so bad this year and our cats are chewing themselves raw. I can't wait to try this method. Hopefully we can nip this flea epidemic in the bud 👍🏻
@Jay You'll get through this. I know how hard it can be. I've lived with fleas all my life. Just gotta keep trying. What I recommend is putting salt on the carpet and doing what this video tells you. The fleas will dehydrate and will look for a host to quench their thirst. They'll see the warmth coming from lamp and jump into the dawn
BlackFur does table salt work??
Thank you for posting this video. I am from Turkey we enjoyed seeimg them drop dead in the water. We have 3 cats who caused the flees in the house. Suddenly they were everywhere, mainly in the room cats slept. Your method really worked for us thank you so much God bless you
Very glad to hear!!
hey
This remedy actually works!
This helps a lot. I've had a burning hatred of fleas since I was a teenager, after seeing half a litter of kittens die from fatal anemia. They belonged my girlfriend's family, who didn't know what the cause was until it was too late. The last kitten that died had passed away in my arms when we were trying to find an animal service to call.
The point is, I currently have an 18 year old cat, who is generally pretty healthy, but had been acting strange lately. She's old, but her loss of energy was unusually sudden. I checked her for fleas, and there they were. After administering a dose of flea medicine and cleaning my home, they came back within the week.
I really don't want to lose my cat to these parasitic creatures, so I'd like to say thank you for the great advice. I'll be going to the store to look for some lamps
Giovanni glad to hear you’re going to do it. One thing, do NOT use LED bulbs, because they don’t put out any heat... fleas are like heat seeking missiles. We used the curly CFL bulbs and they worked great. Another thing... sprinkle salt or baking soda on the carpets, use a broom to sweep it in. After a couple of days, vacuum & repeat. The sodium in the salt / baking soda dries out the fleas and eggs.
Hello I know whe you mean. I had a sick cat and she died in my arms I was very young and will never forget it. I just love animals.
This really does work. Done this before, first night had about 30-40 fleas. 2nd night about 10. Just keep doing this, use a warm light/ night light which attracts them
Really what if I don’t have a night light ?
@@jesuslover5968 buy one at a dollar store, but make sure that if you buy one that uses LED light that it's a warm/soft white color and not a cool/daylight color. If u buy a regular incandescent bulb type you should be good
Hey Man I Really Appreciate You For This Video Bro Frfr
This is most justice moment i've ever seen.
