Johnson’s Veterinary Products has expanded its range of pet healthcare products with a new flea spray line.
Guardian Home Flea Spray is designed to kill fleas and other flying and crawling insects such as flies, mosquitos, cockroaches, ants, and bed bugs. The UK-made trigger spray can be used on surfaces where insects walk or land and can be safely used inside domestic premises. It is not designed to be applied directly to animals.
The water-based, micro-emulsion insecticide can be used as a crack/crevice and spot treatment, or as a direct spray on areas such as carpets and soft furnishings. The spray will control fleas for up to six months and other crawling pests for approximately eight weeks, the manufacturer claims.
Paul Gwynn, managing director at Johnson’s Veterinary Products, said: “As a water-based product, the Guardian Home Flea Spray represents the steps we continue to take as a business to deliver products that meet pet owner’s expectations with regard to being environmentally sustainable and affordable, by providing an attractive alternative for those who are not comfortable with aerosol products.
“As the seasons change and the weather gets warmer, some pets will naturally want to spend more time exploring outdoors, which will increase their exposure to bugs and insects that latch on to pets and make their way inside. The warmer months also bring about an increase in flying pests that love nothing more than to make themselves at home in domestic households.
“As such, owners must be vigilant to ensure their pets do not become infested or suffer from any uncomfortable bug and insect bites that could later get infected. The Guardian Home Flea Spray will prevent such a scenario; ensuring pets are properly protected at home. It is also important to remember to treat all pets with a suitable flea treatment to minimise the risk of a flea infestation.”
