Beaphar DIMETHIcare Environmental Spray 400 ml for the living environment

Beaphar DIMETHIcare Environmental Spray 400 ml is a spray for your pet's environment. The spray physically immobilizes fleas, ticks, and other parasites such as mosquitoes, mites, and lice. The product is ideal for use in areas where animals stay, such as carpets, upholstered furniture, baskets, rugs, resting places, and other resting spots.

DRD always considers the correct application when it comes to parasite products. This spray is intended for the environment, not as a standard skin spray or coat spray for direct use on the animal. By treating the environment specifically, you tackle areas where parasites may hide, without immediately resorting to a chemical insecticide.

How does DIMETHIcare Environmental Spray work?

Beaphar DIMETHIcare works on the basis of dimethicone. This is a silicone that applies an adhesive layer around parasites. As a result, parasites can no longer move properly. The action is therefore physical and not chemical.

Because the product contains no chemical insecticides, Beaphar states that no resistance can develop due to this mechanical action. This makes DIMETHIcare interesting for pet owners who want to treat their animal's environment specifically for fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, mites, or lice.

The spray is primarily intended for areas where animals frequently lie, sleep, or rest. Think of baskets, rugs, upholstered furniture, carpets, shelter corners, and other places where parasites may hide. For rodents and rabbits, it usually concerns the area surrounding the enclosure and not for direct use on the animal.

For which animals and situations is this product suitable?

• Mouse: particularly relevant as an environmental spray around the enclosure, for example at hiding places, edges, or materials where parasites are suspected.
• Dwarf hamster: suitable for the enclosure area. Allow treated surfaces to dry completely before your animal can access them again.
• Hamster: suitable as an environmental spray around resting places, enclosure corners, and materials out of direct contact with the animal as long as they are still wet.
• Gerbil: suitable for the area surrounding the enclosure, for example around furnishings, digging boxes, or corners of the enclosure. Let everything dry thoroughly before returning the gerbils.
• Dwarf rat: suitable for the enclosure environment, such as platforms, hiding places, or fabric materials. Dwarf rats can vary in size, but for this product, the enclosure environment is the primary factor.
• Rat: suitable for the vicinity of rat enclosures, for example around hammocks, platforms, rugs, and resting places. Also check group members for parasite symptoms.
• Guinea pig: suitable for the enclosure area, toilet area, rugs, and hiding places. Ensure treated materials are dry before guinea pigs sit on them again.
• Rabbit: suitable for the area around the enclosure, run, rugs, baskets, or resting places. Do not use on wet surfaces that rabbits can directly lick or gnaw on.
• Chinchilla: only carefully introduce into the environment, with extra attention to dry surfaces and fur sensitivity. Allow everything to dry completely.
• Degu: suitable for the enclosure environment and furnishings. Also check group members and places where animals frequently rest.

Do not use this spray as a substitute for veterinary advice if your animal has severe skin problems, bald patches, sores, severe itching, or clearly abnormal behavior. Parasites can look alike, and sometimes targeted treatment of the animal itself is necessary.

How do you use Beaphar DIMETHIcare Environmental Spray?

• Use the spray only on areas in the vicinity of your pet.
• Treat carpets, upholstered furniture, baskets, rugs, resting areas, and sleeping places specifically.
• Remove animals, feed bowls, and water bowls from the immediate treatment area.
• Allow treated surfaces to dry thoroughly before animals can access them again.
• Ensure adequate ventilation during and after use.
• For sensitive substances, test on an inconspicuous area first.
• Repeat use according to the instructions on the packaging when necessary.

For rodents and rabbits, it is advisable to treat the enclosure environment primarily, rather than the animal itself. Consider resting places, corners, rugs, hiding spots, or materials around the enclosure. Allow everything to dry thoroughly before your animal comes into contact with it again.

When to see the vet?

Contact a veterinarian if your animal is severely itchy, develops bald patches, has sores, is lethargic, is not eating well, or if symptoms worsen rapidly. Professional advice is also advisable if you are unsure whether it is fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, mites, lice, or another problem.

In cases of recurring parasite symptoms, treating only the environment may be insufficient. Sometimes, the animal itself must also be treated with a product specifically intended for the species and weight.

When not to use?

• Do not use as a direct skin spray or coat spray for rodents and rabbits, unless the packaging clearly indicates otherwise.
• Do not use on eyes, nose, mouth, ears, or damaged skin.
• Do not use on wet surfaces that animals can directly lick or gnaw on.
• Do not use without ventilation.
• Do not spray directly on feed, hay, water, feed troughs, or drinking troughs.
• Do not use if you are not sure whether the product is suitable for your animal or situation.
