Because pesticides are harmful to cats, if the owner wants to kill insects at home, he or she must first isolate the cat or take the cat directly away from the home to prevent the cat from accidentally eating pesticides and being poisoned. Secondly, because the concentration of pesticides just after spraying is very high, long-term inhalation is also harmful, so the owner must open the windows in time for ventilation. Finally, after the pests are basically killed, the owner needs to clean up the corpses of the pests and clean and disinfect the entire room to prevent cats from accidentally eating the insects sprayed to death by pesticides.
1. Isolate cats
Due to the strong toxicity of pesticides, cats may suffer from poisoning, kidney failure, and liver damage if they inhale or lick them. Therefore, when preparing to kill insects, the owner can first isolate the cat and keep the cat on the balcony, toilet or other room to prevent the cat from inhaling or licking the insecticide.
2. Open windows for ventilation
Before spraying insecticides, the owner needs to open the windows in advance for ventilation. After spraying, the owner also needs to open the windows for about 6-12 hours before letting them in. The cat cannot enter. Otherwise, letting the cat enter immediately after spraying may also lead to poisoning.
3. Do a good job of disinfection
In order to reduce the chance of cats being infected with parasites and skin diseases, owners need to use pet-specific disinfectants on cats after killing them. Disinfect the living environment and deworm the cat regularly, which can not only effectively prevent some diseases, but also contribute to the healthy growth of the cat.
