Hi guys I had a flea infestation in my house, and I scoured online for the best way to kill fleas, and I honestly really did not want to resort to a chemical alternative, and in my search I came across this thing called food-grade diatomaceous earth.
It's been about five days since I sprinkled this stuff all over the hotspots of my backyard, and inside my room, and on the dogs themselves and I gotta say this stuff works! Not as fast as chemical alternatives, but I rather use DE which to those who don't know is non-toxic to dogs and gets the job done.
I bought a 25lb bag of DE locally for $32. And I used it to treat 4 large dogs, 1 medium, and 3 small, total of 8 dogs. Sprinkled my entire yard, and im only close to half of finishing the 25lb bag. Considering the retail price for advantage/advantix/frontline which is about $55-70 per dog, i saved a grip using this stuff for my backyard and all the dogs here.
Sorry just happy I found something cool to kill fleas with, and wanted to let people who never heard about this product before to take it into consideration before using chemical alternatives.
