Should you use Precor 2000 for cracks, woodwork, carpets and yard prior to using the Precor foggers?

Answer:

Precor Foggers would be used if a flea infestation indoors was very severe and you needed a quick knock down before going in to complete a full flea treatment. You can use products like Precor 2000 or Ultracide to spray carpets, rugs, hardwood, baseboards, and pet bedding for flea control. These are not outdoor products so you will want to use concentrated insecticides you mix with water to treat outdoor areas frequented by pets. Both of those products contain a residual insecticide that will continue to kill any fleas that touch the treated surfaces after its dry, along with an IGR to stop the reproductive cycle of the fleas. A thorough vacuuming should be performed throughout the entire home first, then apply an even light coating of the product to the infested surfaces, then vacuum daily or every other day for 14 days at which time you would complete a second treatment. You can see detailed info as well as other product options for flea treatments in our Flea Control Guide. We have info and how to videos that go over indoor, outdoor, and on pet treatments.
