Goodday Wonderful Nairalanders , hope you guys are enjoying your day? So for sometime now, I have been involved in a war, A war against ticks and fleas and it has proven to be an unending one and it's really tiring and am pretty much fed-up with those tiny creatures. I am the owner of four dogs ,a male GSD and three other female dogs. I didn't know how bad these ticks were not until I had my very first litter few months ago of seven puppies ( I was so happy) and lost five of them to tick fever. It was very painful. Now I have decided to have my whole everything fumigated and sprayed. Enough is enough. Plan on landing the fatal blow that Lets me win the war. Now the issue is, this fumigation I want to do, I really don't want there to be any complications. Complications in form of my dogs getting poisoned by the chemicals, sniffing it or any other way possible. My question now is, How long do I need to take them away?? Please note that I don't really have a place I can carry FOUR dogs to stay overnight so as to let the chemicals dry off. Is it possible I could return them within a day and I wouldn't have any complications? ?Please oooo.. .Nairalanders, what's your opinion ??

Experienced cynophiles should please respond

From experience, please don't try it. I lost one of Caucasian due to it....I will advise you wait for two days to dry adequately and wash the kernel VERY VERY well before returning them...

Seven hours, minimum.

Check the container of the insecticide used, it's written on it most cases.
Or ask the seller.

excellent advice. In addition it is unlikely that the insecticide will be able to kill tick eggs and maybe some of the other stages of the tick lifecycle, so i advise that you spray again in 2-4 weeks. to kill off any ticks that may have hatched post initial spraying
