How Do I Treat Human Flea Bites?

Flea is a fully metamorphic species belonging to the order Siphonaptera. Commonly known as leather, fleas are small, wingless, jumping parasitic insects. Adults usually live on mammals, and a few are birds. Short antennae. The mouthpiece is sharp for sucking. The abdomen is wide with 9 knots. Hind legs are developed and stout. The tadpole is surrounded by cocoons. Adults are small or small, wingless, hard and flat, parasitic on mammals and birds, with stab-sucking mouthparts, both males and females suck blood; larvae have a cylindrical shape without feet, and live freely with chewing mouth Devices that feed on adult blood or organic matter.

General treatment of fleas

Female fleas

1. If bitten, you can apply some toilet water, wind oil essence or soap to have antipruritic and anti-inflammatory effects.

2. If you have a pet, you must first do a good job of pet hygiene. It's best to stay away from cats and dogs.

3. Pay attention to the hygiene at home. You can also spray some disinfectant on the wall. Pay attention to the instructions and precautions before spraying. Avoid being hurt.

4. Bring the intimate clothes to boil, and the large clothes and mats are boiled with boiling water; then expose to the sun.

5. Insecticides: It is generally recommended to use public health drugs, spray bed boards, dormitory floors, corners;

6, the most critical step: 10% sulfur ointment, sold in pharmacies, a very cheap 5 hair 10g, evenly spread on the body, mat, for several days in a row, do not be afraid to stain your clothes. The sulfur in the sulfur ointment is harmless to humans, and it can only play its biggest role when it comes into contact with the human skin surface. The taste is a bit bad, but it is not poisonous after application, basically kills all surface parasites. Sulfur soap is usually used for bathing. ^[1]

Fleas prevention

Fleas are difficult to completely cure in a short period of time, so precautions are especially important.

First, citizens of cats and dogs must properly trim their pet's hair, bathe the pets with flea-free detergent every week, and it is best not to use carpets in the home.

Second, do well in home ventilation, and place the bedding in the sun regularly.

Third, keep the indoor and outdoor environment clean and tidy, and do not accumulate debris inside and outside the house, underground garages, and other places. In the prevention of fleas, we must pay attention to rodent prevention, while avoiding stray cats and dogs.

Fourth, when cleaning, the wall gaps, bed linen carpets and other places should be thoroughly cleaned, it is best to use a vacuum cleaner, and timely clean up the garbage in the vacuum cleaner.

Flea control measures

Management of flea on sheep surface

Eliminating fleas on the animal's surface is one of the goals of control, and another goal is to inhibit the breeding of fleas. Persistence is the primary indicator of pesticide selection, and it is also effective to kill fleas or use compounds that inhibit reproduction before flea breeding. The more commonly used are avermectin and prothiobenzamine gel tablets, which are dewormed twice in spring and autumn. At present, long-acting avermectin has been developed, and the blood concentration of sheep can be maintained for 3 months after being administered, and the effect is good.

Governance of pens and surrounding areas

Most of the worm eggs are scattered in the soil of the pen and pastoral area, which can not be controlled because of the pasture area. Therefore, the pen and its surroundings have become the focus of control. April is the best time to control fleas when flea has just entered the breeding area in Liaoning. Clean up the sheep dung in the pen as soon as possible, and store the sheep dung in a uniform place. Water it thoroughly. Then cover the top with a plastic sheet and compact it. After one year of fermentation, sheep manure can be used as farm manure in the next spring. This is the best way to treat sheep manure in the breeding area, which can effectively kill the eggs and larvae of fleas and prevent the field from being polluted by sheep manure.

It can be controlled by smog-containing drug technology outdoors. The use of smog has good diffusivity and spreadability, and can reach places that are difficult to control by other methods. The smoke from the washing machine or hot smoke machine can penetrate the gaps between the articles and cracks in the walls and floors to kill pests. Due to the poor effect of outdoor drug control on insect eggs, 7-10 days can be used as a pesticide application cycle to kill newly emerged juvenile fleas. In severe areas, spraying can be continued for 3 days, and then repeated application for 7-10 days. This method is limited to the management of sheep sheds, fences and activities. The management of pastoral areas and surrounding large areas is difficult.

Governance indoors

Flea Fossil

The indoor closed control effect is obvious. Flea killers can be used to kill adult fleas. The window is opened and ventilated after 3 hours of spraying to prevent poisoning, and the toxicity of the agent to the environment and people, especially to young children is fully considered. Vacuuming the infected room can reduce about 60% of eggs and 27% of larvae. At the same time, it can remove foods (organic matter such as adult blood and animal debris) and the dust used for hiding. However, the effects of drugs sprayed on the surface of different objects are quite different. On the glass surface, the virulence is dichlorvos in order from high to low> Erhounong> Desperate Bee> Jia Caiwei; on fiber fabrics and carpets, organophosphorus insecticides> urethane insecticides> Pyrethroid insecticides> Natural pyrethrum [s].

In the breeding area, this work is best done by the local government, which organizes households to implement drug spraying at a uniform time, so that fleas have no place to hide, to ensure that the source of fleas is cut off, and the flea is completely eliminated. Otherwise, there is a constant flow of fleas and it is difficult to achieve the goal of eradication.

Governance of feed warehouses

Grain insects can be sprinkled in the feed warehouse. This medicine has no toxic side effects and is not harmful to sheep. ^[2]
