GENERAL QUESTIONS
Gaps in protection can occur when flea and tick treatments are not administered at the correct treatment interval.
BRAVECTO stops the flea life cycle with one dose by killing fleas before they can produce fertile eggs2-5.
Monthly products will not stop the flea life cycle with one dose2.
BRAVECTO products assist with treatment compliance for an extended period with just one dose, offering you peace of mind.
Fleas love warmth and humidity. The combination of recent warmer winter temperatures, along with heating in our homes, creates an environment conducive for fleas to sustain their life cycle across all seasons, even in winter.
Just 10 adult female fleas can produce 500 eggs every day.
This is why consistent and effective flea control is necessary to break the flea life cycle throughout the year – no matter the season.
BRAVECTO is not a repellent. Adult fleas must jump onto your pet, bite and consume a blood meal before they are killed.
BRAVECTO breaks the flea life cycle by killing the female flea before she is able to lay eggs.
However, the adult fleas that you see on your pet are only the tip of the iceberg. 95% of the flea population (eggs, larvae and pupae) exists in your home environment, and it can take many months for these immature stages to develop into adults.
Just one dose of BRAVECTO will break the entire flea life cycle, however, patience is required whilst those immature stages develop into adults.
Some tips to speed up the control of environmental flea stages include regular vacuuming, steam mopping, hot washing of bedding and ensuring all pets in the household are treated regularly with an effective flea preventative product.
When fleas are in the process of dying their movements become uncoordinated. This may cause a skin sensation which can result in increased scratching of the pet. However, this phenomenon is quickly resolved once the fleas are dead.
