This is something you can do easily. You can make one yourself or you can go to the hardware store to buy one that is already ready-made. If you plan on making one at home, what you have to do would be to prepare a dish to put some soapy water in. Place the dish on the ground and be sure to put a light source such as a lamp. Leave the dish with soapy water overnight.

The fleas will be attracted by the light and the warmth and they will go into the water where they will be trapped. This is one of the most effective and easy ways to get rid of the fleas and protect your dog.
