Wondercide Flea and Tick and Mosquito Control Spray for Cats Dogs and Home - Cedar - 32 oz

I have NEVER written a review before, but I wrote a very similar one about VETS BEST as well. This past month and a half of dealing with a severe flea infestation has been one of the most challenging times I've ever experienced. I have spent so much money and tossed out so many things. I feel like we all need a support group. Did WONDERSIDE totally magically fix my issue, no, but did it help immensely, speed the process up, and help with my state of mind? Sure did! Side note: HOW is there no easy way in the year 2023 to get rid of fleas?!? I don't want to get my hopes up too much that I am completely rid of Fleas, but I think I am for sure on somewhat of the other side of it. What I found most helpful during this process was reading everyone else's experiences, so I'll share mine in the hopes it helps at least one other person. My indoor (never outdoor, untreated) cat had been leaving this blackish dirt everywhere. I really had no idea what it was, I usually have my windows and screen door open and there was a lot of construction around my apartment, silly me just figured it was that...Well, I was scrolling through TikTok one night, and this woman is talking about how she noticed 'flea dirt' on her foster kitten, at that moment, everything just clicked into place for me. I checked my poor cat out, and sure enough I saw the little buggers. The next morning I woke up and my life has not been the same. Called the vet and they couldn't get him in for a few days (because of course), so I attempted a flea bath, but nothing is going to work until you treat the animal and start seriously treating your house. I have been vacuuming every single day, twice a day. I start with my big vacuum going around each and every wall of the house with the hose, and then I do a big vacuum. I then send the Roomba around. I did ultimately decide to toss my rugs, which some say was an overreaction, but anyone who is deep in the middle of this I think can understand. I vacuum the couch every other day. I did lay a sheet down over it, so the cat would have less contact. It took me about a week to start using the spray. I bought WONDERSIDE, I bought both the Lemongrass and Cedarwood sent. I genuinely liked the smell of the Cedarwood. The Lemongrass was a little too pungent. However, I will take any strong smell for 5 mins than have fleas running wild. I attempted to spray my cat down with it, which he HATED, but had to do it. Just a note, he started drooling at the mouth, which is normal and should stop in a few seconds. I poured a bit of it in a bowl and let him chow down on treats while I rubbed it into his fur. The only downsides about WONDERSIDE is that it is on the pricier side. As I was bleeding money, I was looking for a cheaper alternative, and I started using VETS BEST. Again, I cannot directly know for sure if this has done anything more than give me a little peace of mind, but let's put it this way, I just placed 3 orders. And I will say that I do think that it has 100% sped up this never-ending process. So, what would I say to someone just starting this terrible journey? 1. Treat your animal. My indoor cat will never be off flea meds for the rest of his life. I never want to go through this again. 2. Start vacuuming daily, and if you have a roomba, send that around too. Empty the vacuum OUTSIDE every time. It's also a good way to check your progress. 3. Brush your pet daily. I had a bowl of hot water with Dawn Dish Soap so they would die a hot soapy death. 4. Wash bedding every other day at least. (This has been the hardest, as I live in an apartment and have to pay for laundry, but you HAVE to do it) 5. Spray around the house every few days and then don't vacuum to let it sit. 6. If you can get rid of your rugs, I would...truly whatever gives your peace of mind, that's important. 7. CapStar! You can get it from your vet or way cheaper on Chewy. I wish I had known about this pill sooner. 8. I spoke with exterminators, and they said that they can come 'treat' the house, but given the life cycle of fleas, they'll have to come back again. Really the only thing you can do is vacuum. I like to think that over a month in a half in, I am almost on the other side and now am just maintaining to keep the next cycle at bay. But I cannot recommend this product enough. Good. Luck.

its good but its difficult to keep spraying it lasts for just so long i live in the south, and i am from the north, and long story short, i live in a old home and there coming up from the crawl space, do i recommend, yes absolutely but i have things hindering the steadyness of it lasting for long, it works yes but my dogs hate that spray down lol, i do recomend if you dont have a crawl space and floor vents for air and heat that once worked and no longer do, its a unending battle, it kills immediately when applied but anyways my factors are not the norm, it works as it says and i recomend 100%, i just have added issues that need to be fixed to do its job affectively ...thank you wondercide :)

This seems to work well. It’s hard to tell if there is less fleas but after vacuuming they at least seem to be all dead. I like that it is made of safer ingredients and not super strong and toxic chemicals. I only used this on carpet, no furniture and not directly on my cat. My cat has sensitive skin but she did not seem affected by it. It is oily however and takes a while to dry. I recommend doing one room at a time, don’t allow any people or pets in the room for 2+ hours to allow it to fully dry. Opening windows helps it dry faster and the smell is not bad but really strong.

I have cats that are indoor, outdoor cats with cat doors. I have found it extremely efficacious to spray the doors ,and the door flaps coat the cats fur when they come in and out. I spray the doors daily not a lot but I can smell it on their coat. I only have two acres but I find this method is better than spraying the entire yard. So far so good.

I have 8 Great Pyrenees that protect livestock and cover acres of pastures and woods. I was skeptical that the collars would work on double-coated 100+ dogs. It has only been two weeks of using the spray and collar combined, but I am encouraged. I did spray on my own jeans and arms before going in the woods and i had no ticks when i returned! My hope is to completely remove chemical flea and tick help from my guardians. Fingers crossed.
