Hi Paul,
I recently found your flea control page, and it was a major mental helper for me. I never realized that a flea problem can become some mental (and mentally exhausting). I have a question which can hopefully be answered quickly. My wife and I just bought a nice bag of Food Grade DE, and we have started applying it to the carpets. I really just would like some validation that we are doing it correctly. Here's the process:
1. Sprinkle it on the carpet
2. Get down on hands and knees and rub it into the carpet (this creates a huge amount of dust)
We just got it, so we haven't gotten to the vacuuming stage yet. Is this the proper procedure? Is all the dust I'm kicking up by rubbing it into the carpet mean that there is less dust that stays on the carpet? I would hate to go through the hassle of doing our entire apartment only to realize I stupidly did it incorrectly.
Thanks in advance,
Shane
