Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and Answers

Q1: How do I apply the Beaphar Flea Spray to my pet?
A1: Always read the product label fully before use. Wear gloves and use in a well-ventilated room. Comb your pet's fur against the natural lie to expose the skin. From a distance of about 15 cm, spray the product onto the roots of the coat and onto the skin, working from the rear to the head for even coverage. After application, comb the fur back into place and remove any excess spray by drying the coat with a towel.
