Hiki i nā ʻīlio ke loaʻa nā ʻauʻau i ka hoʻoilo?

Ke anuanu ke anuanu, ʻo ka mea āu e makemake ai e hoʻomoe me kāu ʻīlio. ʻO ka mea pōʻino, makemake paha nā ʻauʻau e noho i kou home mahana. Make anei ka peʻa i ka hoʻoilo? ʻAʻole pono. Inā ʻoe e noʻonoʻo inā hiki i nā ʻīlio ke loaʻa i nā ʻauʻau i ka hoʻoilo, ʻo ka pane ʻae. Hiki ke emi iki ka nui o ka peʻa, ʻoi aku ma waho, akā ʻaʻole e nalowale loa. No ka ʻaoʻao palekana, e hoʻomau i ka mālama ʻana i ka peʻa ʻoiai i nā mahina hoʻoilo anu.

ʻAʻole make maʻalahi nā ʻauʻau i ka hoʻoilo

ʻOi aku ka nui o ka make ʻana o nā ʻauʻau inā hiki ka mahana i ka hau a noho ma laila no kekahi manawa.¹ Akā ʻaʻole lawa kēia i nā manawa a pau. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke maopopo e make nā ʻauʻau i ka hoʻoilo, ʻoiai inā ma waho.

ʻO ka pōʻaiapuni o ke ola o ka ʻauʻau e kōkua iā ia e ola. Hiki i ka peʻa wahine ke hoʻomaka e hoʻohua i loko o 24 a 36 mau hola o ka nahu ʻana i kāu pipi a hiki ke hoʻomoe i 10,000 mau hua i loko o 30 mau lā. Hiki i kēia mau hua ke hoʻopau i loko o kou kapena a i ʻole nā ​​wahi ʻē aʻe o kou home. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā ʻōhua peʻa i niu a ulu aʻe i loko ma ke ʻano he pupae, i kekahi manawa noho i loko o ka niu a hiki i 30 pule ma mua o ka ulu ʻana a lilo i ʻōpala makua.

Hiki i ke anu ke hoʻolohi i ka pōʻaiapuni o ke ola o nā ʻauʻau, akā hiki nō ke ʻō i ka hoʻoilo.² ʻOiai inā lōʻihi ka lōʻihi o ka wela e pepehi ai i nā mākua, ua loaʻa paha i kēia mau ʻauʻau kahi wahi mahana e waiho ai i kā lākou mau hua.

Hiki nō ke ʻeleu i loko o ka hale

ʻO kahi o nā wahi mehana kahi e "lele ai" i ka hoʻoilo ʻo kou home. ʻOiai e lohi iki ka ʻauʻau i ke anuanu ma waho, hiki nō iā lākou ke ʻeleu a hoʻomau i ko lākou ola maʻamau i loko. ʻO nā mahana o 70-85 ° F me 70 pakeneka haʻahaʻa e hāʻawi i nā kūlana hoʻohua kūpono no nā ʻauʻau, no laila i ka wā anuanu hiki iā lākou ke peʻe i nā wahi mahana.³

Loaʻa paha, ʻaʻole ʻoe e mālama mālie i kou home e hoʻolōʻihi i ka laha ʻana o nā ʻauʻau. No laila, inā ho'ōki ʻoe i ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻauʻau i ka wā hoʻoilo, hāʻawi paha ʻoe iā lākou i ka manawa e loaʻa ai kahi paʻa i kou home.

ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o ka pale ʻana i nā ʻauʻau ma mua o ka hoʻopau ʻana i kahi infestation.

ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o ka pale ʻana i nā ʻauʻau ma mua o ka hoʻopau ʻana i kahi infestation.⁴ Ma muli o ka paʻakikī o ka ʻauʻau a hoʻohua wikiwiki, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻopilikia pinepine i kou home a i ʻole ka pā hale ma mua o kou ʻike ʻana i ka mea i hana ʻia. Hoʻopilikia ʻia nā pilikia ʻē aʻe, e like me ka tapeworms.

No kēia kumu, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻauʻau a puni ka makahiki, ʻaʻole wale i nā mahina mahana. No ka mea, ʻo ka ʻauʻau makua e noho ana ma kāu pipi he ʻelima wale nō pakeneka o ka nui o ka nui o ka ʻauʻau ma kou home a puni.⁵ ʻAʻole pono ʻoe e kaupalena i ka mālama ʻana i kāu pipi. Manaʻo ʻia hoʻi e mālama i ke kaiapuni o kāu pipi i mea e hoʻopaʻa wikiwiki ai i ka infestation.

Koho Lapaau Pua

ʻAʻole pono ka mālama ʻana i ka puaʻa i kāu pipi wale nō, akā i kou home a me ka pā.

E mālama i kāu ʻīlio me ka shampoo flea and tick shampoo a me kahi kola pale. ʻO Adams Flea a me Tick Cleansing Shampoo e pepehi i nā ʻauʻau makua a pale i nā hua mai ka hāʻule ʻana no 30 mau lā. Hiki i ka Adams Flea a me Tick Collar no nā ʻīlio ke pale aku i kāu ʻīlio a hiki i ʻehiku mahina, he mea kōkua nui inā hele pinepine kāu ʻīlio i waho.

Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻāʻo i ka lāʻau topical. ʻO Adams Flea & Tick Spot On for Dogs kahi huahana e pale ai i nā ʻauʻau a me nā ticks mai ka "hoʻokomo hou" i kāu ʻīlio a hiki i 30 mau lā. E kamaʻilio me kāu kauka lapaʻau inā makemake ʻoe i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo i kūpono i kāu ʻīlio.

A laila, e noʻonoʻo e mālama i kou home no nā ʻauʻau. He nui nā koho e like me nā lumi lumi, nā'ōpala kāpeti, a me nā'ōpala home. He mea nui ka mālama ʻana i kou home no ka mea e hoʻohana nā ʻauʻau iā ia i puʻuhonua i ka wā hoʻoilo.

E noʻonoʻo e pili ana i kou pā hale. Hiki iā Adams Yard & Garden Spray ke pepehi i nā ʻauʻau i ko lākou ola a pau a pale i kou pā, māla a me nā kumu lāʻau a hiki i ʻehā pule.

ʻOiai i ka hoʻoilo, pono ʻoe e hoʻomau i ka mālama ʻana i kāu ʻīlio, home, a me ka pā no nā ʻauʻau. Hiki i nā ʻīlio ke loaʻa i ka maʻi ʻauʻau i ka wā hoʻoilo no ka mea hiki i nā ʻupena liʻiliʻi ke puʻuhonua i kou home mahana e kōkua iā lākou e ola. Inā makemake ʻoe e mākaukau hou, e kākau inoa no nā mākaʻikaʻi e ʻike ai i ka wā e puka mai ai kahi maʻi maʻi ma kou wahi.
