A convenient form provides coverage of a large area of the apartment, penetration into the most secluded places, cost effectiveness, efficiency.
The composition and principle of operation
The active substance of the Raid aerosol is an insecticide from the pyrethroid group, cypermethrin. Synthetic insecticide is resistant to light and other external factors, which ensures its long-term effect.Reid against fleas retains its high activity for 26-28 days.
Cypermethrin is a complex of 8 isomers, each of which act on a particular type of insect. This is due to a wide range of aerosol. Cypermethrin belongs to the 3rd class of danger. The raid against fleas has low toxicity to humans and warm-blooded animals, but is a strong poison for insects.
Interesting!
Scientists, studying the effect of insecticides on humans, noted their toxicity to children under 3 years old. This is due to an imperfect immune system and the curiosity of babies. If the rules for treating the apartment are not followed, the insecticide enters the child’s intestines. Metabolites of pyrethroids were found in the urine of children. Insecticides reduce speech perception in a child, and the insect repellents that are part of many preparations for treating an apartment from insects negatively affect spermatogenesis and increase the risk of developing leukemia.
When it hits the surface of the body of the insect or into its intestines, the drug blocks the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles. Paralysis of the muscles leads to the rapid death of adult insects and their larvae.Reid has no effect on egg laying. Therefore, in order to exterminate the entire generation of fleas, it is necessary over time to repeat the processing of the apartment.
Since the aerosol is used for the treatment of residential premises, the manufacturing company introduced synthetic fragrances with the smell of lavender, spring greenery, or orange into the Reid product. They additionally have a repellent effect on parasites.
Instructions for use Reid
A flea raid, the instructions for use of which are written on the surface of the balloon, should be used when a flat is slightly contaminated, since the concentration of insecticides in the aerosol is low. With a strong defeat is better to use professional means of dealing with fleas and other parasites.
One can of Raid is enough for single room processing. The drug should be sprayed, having a spray for 20-30 cm from the surface. It is necessary to treat the accumulation sites and possible finding of fleas before the appearance of droplets of the product on a hard surface and until the tissues are slightly moistened. Carefully sprayed the places where the parasites accumulate, the area where the litter of the pet is located.Then you need to handle upholstered furniture, carpets, floors, walls, baseboards. For the construction of the "barrier", the tool must be sprayed around the window frames, the door frame, the cracks in the floor, around the perimeter of the pillows, to avoid the penetration of fleas from basements and attics.
Important!
Raid after drying leaves a greasy film on the surface, preventing the rapid destruction of the insecticide. You can remove it after a wet treatment with an alkaline solution. Therefore, all surfaces to which the tenants of the apartment touch their hands, should be wiped with soap and soda solution and rinsed thoroughly with water. The tool does not stain the fabric, which makes it possible to use it on upholstered furniture and carpets, but it is better to wash textiles after soaking the products in an insecticide solution.
The treatment of the room should be carried out by closing the windows and doors to eliminate the high consumption of the drug and its weathering. The spray forms tiny droplets in the air that can get into the respiratory tract of the person who is processing. Therefore, you should use personal protective equipment - respirator or cotton-gauze bandage and goggles.Cypermethrin irritates the skin and mucous membranes, so the body must be closed from getting Reid.
The room should remain closed for at least 2-4 hours. The same time is required for its quality airing.
Cypermethrin negatively affects the condition of birds, aquarium fish. Therefore, they should be removed from the premises for the period of disinsection of the apartment from fleas and other parasites. If the aquarium cannot be removed, it is covered with glass and the compressor is turned off. At the time of treatment to remove from the room animals.
Re-processing is carried out a week after the first. This time is necessary for the appearance larvae of eggs. If necessary, a third treatment is done 21 days after the first procedure.

Over the two years of using the tool, I’m just convinced that Reid is what you need at the dacha.He exterminates flies and mosquitoes at the same time.

Our dog lives in the yard, but sometimes runs into the house - the children run. After each visit, we were attacked by fleas. Than only did not fight with them! And Ryzhik was treated, and the house, but the fleas returned with enviable persistence. It turned out that they "nest" in a dog house. Only after they had treated her with a raid, did the dog stop carrying them into the house.

After they made repairs at the grandmother's next apartment, all her “lodgers” came to us. In the morning I began to collect my daughter in the garden, and on her bites. They were afraid that the bugs, but it turned out that the grandmothers fleas and cockroaches moved to us. I bought Reid, processed everything only once - and all this “evil” disappeared. Now, just in case, I have a couple of cans in stock - in the apartment of the neighbor-catwoman, too, they will soon make repairs.

I live in an old house, where a crude basement is located under my apartment.What kind of "little animals" from there does not resort to me! If it were not for Reid, then I would probably have to give the entire salary and the guide on insects to buy. And so I bought a couple of Reid cans in a nearby store and struggle with all the jumping, flying, crawling and biting parasites by the same means. Very successfully, they all die.
