If you are trying to get rid of fleas, but you don't want to use dangerous pesticides, consider using Borax. It's cheap and safe enough to use around pets and children. Click HERE for instructions.
We have used this method a few times over the years and it works great. Sometimes you have to repeat the process two or three times and vacuum more frequently than usual. I've also read that Borax can help with roaches and ants.
Remember, anything that kills insects will also present a certain amount of risk to people and the environment. Click HERE for information provided by the Pesticide Action Network (PAN) about the toxicity and environmental effects of Borax.
