Eco-Friendly Flea Remedies

For a carpeted room: Use 2-3 cups of dry 20 Mule Team Borax in a colander to sift it in carpeted rooms. Leave it for 2 weeks for their life cycle to finish before you vacuum. I had no fleas for at least a year and a half. In the late 80's Flea Busters was charging $250 to go through a small house with this very same 20 Mule Team Borax, guaranteeing it to be non toxic. For an average yard: Scatter cedercide granules (a natural product). A little goes a long way. Five pounds lasts more than a year and you can order it online.
