Help! I have a Flea problem in my yard!
by

I live in The middle part of Floridaand with all of this lovely sand I also have a lot of fleas in the yard. How can I get rid of them so my dogs can have some peace? I also have them in my carpeting. And if I need to buy something, where would I purchase it?

Rake the sand daily and the sun will kill sand fleas. You could also set up sprinklers, cause the water kills the flea eggs.... that hatch every 9 days.
For your carpets, buy some 20 Mule Team Laundry Borax and put in a jar, poke lots of holes in the lid. Sprinkle all over the rugs, leave 3 hours, and vacuum up..... vet says it won't hurt you or the pets. And must work cause I've been doing for years and cats still alive. When fleas are bad, I repeat in 9 days, vacuum often. Then I use Greenerways yard spray when they are bad but I got lots of grass.... its non-toxic. https://www.amazon.com/GREENERWAYS-ORGANIC-Insecticide-Repellent-Concentrate/dp/B07219KKNL/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1528789685&sr=8-4&keywords=greenerways+organic+insecticide
Get your dogs some cedar filled beds with zip off covers so you can wash them regularly. I also add the borax to the laundry to kill the eggs.
