It’s not buoyancy. The soap acts as a surfactant allowing the fleas to get covered in the solution and reduce the surface tension and sink.

Just a friendly heads up - it breaks the surface tension. Water likes to stick to itself, but when there is soap, which likes to stick to all kinds of things, it makes it harder for the water to stick to itself. This causes all manner of small insects that normally walk over water to get dunked.

You do know this doesn't kill the eggs, correct?...

😱 no..... I thought once they drown everything dies. Wait but wouldn't the eggs hatch and they die too?

The eggs are in your carpet and or on your pet. After a couple of weeks you will have another generation. Persistence pays off.

@@gearhead_automotive2031 The flea trap is to be used in conjunction with treating your pet. The beauty of the flea trap is its nontoxic nature. Actually if you set it between the sofa and the television, you can watch them leap to their deaths.

So do I wash my dog with it

Fortunately for me my dog loves water so I bought a kiddy pool where he enjoys laying there. Most fleas die. We have a lot of cats in the neighborhood so he picks fleas up when we go on walks. I used to treat him with a flea treatment i bought at Costco but have not found it as of lately. So the answer is yes you can as long as you rinse the soap off after you're done.
