Getting Rid of Fleas In Neighbors Yard

RE: Getting Rid of Fleas In Neighbors Yard By Joshua (Guest Post) I came across this site about getting rid of fleas and tried a few of the suggested methods there. I got some good ideas that worked like a charm.

Each year I purchase cedar chips and place it like mulch all along my fence line. I also sprinkle it lightly throughout my lawn. I don't like chemicals on my lawn and this has always worked for me. My neighbors all have outside dogs and I've never had a problem. Good luck!

We have used flea preventatives for over 18 years. We never have a problem. It keeps the fleas off the dog no matter where they are outside. It would be nice if the neighbors would, however, you just keep doing your thing and your dog will be OK. I am highly susceptible to flea bites and MUST not have them in the house and I don't! Also, we are surrounded on two sides by woods, and as I said, we have never treated outside and it is OK.

It will not hurt humans or pets, but will kill fleas, or any insect. Most garden supplies or Home Depots will sell it. Also depending on the fence, on a windy day the wind can carry the sulfur into the neighbors yard. I always put mine out just before taking a bath and washing my hair because it does smell.

My indoor dogs are on Advantage all year and Ive never seen a flea nor have I ever had to treat my yard. I would be curious to know if that is a form of animal cruelty as fleas suck the blood, then the pets come anemic and can die. You might want to look into this with the local humane society and I wouldn't care one bit if I had a neighbor like that and they knew it was me who reported them. Those poor, poor dogs. They must be miserable. The neighbors sound like they are too cheap to treat them, and if that's the case they should never be allowed to own a pet. Keep us posted!

Unfortunately, you cannot tell your neighbor's what to do with their property, especially if they have a reason for not wanting to use pesticides. Their poor dogs must be miserable.

If they aren't treating their pets then you are never going to get rid of the fleas. What was their reasoning why they aren't protecting their pets and yard? I really feel for your situation. Good luck resolving this unfortunate disagreement. Posted on 09/26/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Getting Rid of Fleas In Neighbors Yard By Sue (Guest Post) I, personally, have not tried it. But, I have heard many, many people say that they sprinkle a thick layer of borax (Found in the laundry aisle) on their property line. They also sprinkle it on carpets, let sit over night, then vacuum. Will not harm children or pets. But they swear by it for killing fleas. Posted on 09/26/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse
