But mess works after a while

Have it for my two Viechers bought (dog and cat) and for use on the animals, it is less suitable. The problem is that the powder all very dull making it almost impossible to distribute the powder in the coat at least not to the skin. Of course, it depends on the fur, with a wire-haired dachshund there are no problems with a fluffy cat on the other hand ... no chance.

So it's more likely to make suitable to berths insect free. Act quickly, it does not. A flea has survived at least 3 hours in the compact after 6 hours he had a terrible putt. Dog and cat, it does no harm. At least not on the fur, not dry skin (at least not in the long term) or eruptions or the like. Inhalation should be avoided, of course, best dusting out in light winds.

Oh yes, 3 kg a proper quantity of powder I recommend for individual pets rather smaller packs, on the other hand, the powder is naturally stored indefinitely. So for a dog are 3 kg a lifelong reservoir.
