By Heidi Carver


There are really tiny parasites called fleas. Everyone find it hard to see them. They also find it hard to kill and get rid of these parasites.

When fleas infest our floor covering, all of us would really have a hard time on removing it. All of us should be getting rid of it to be able to protect ourselves and our houses at the same time. There is a guideline you could follow to know how to get rid of fleas in carpet.

One thing a person must do is to vacuum the floor coverings completely. An appropriate nozzle should be used and attached to the vacuum machine instead of moving it back and forth. Begin on one side of the room and vacuum that completely until the time that you have cleaner the entire floor covering. Concentrate on cleaning corners of the area. Fleas always like hiding on places which are dark and are humid. A person should include cleaning beneath their furniture. When you have done that, throw its vacuum bag. It would be better to throw it at the trashcan outside your house. This is to ensure the parasites will not return.

If there are any upholstered furniture in your house, you should clean it as well. Fleas often jump into our furniture. So, it is better to clean them especially at the base and the seams. If they are not removed from there, they would just come back to your carpet.

To be free from them, a person can use a steam cleaner on their carpets and their furniture. If no steam cleaner is available, one can just borrow from his neighbor or rent a machine. Follow the given instructions on how you could use the machine. Hiring an expert from the steam cleaning company is another option for you. Steam cleaners is capable of exerting high temperature that could kill fleas and the eggs.

Use an insecticide and spray that directly to the carpets. The spray could kill the eggs. If ever you do not like using chemicals, you may use salt and some borax. Borax is really safe for humans and pets so you have nothing to be worried of. Sprinkle its mixture on the carpet and allow that to penetrate for twenty four hours.

You should also throw away the rugs and your pet bedding. This would help in removing flea. If you do not like that idea, you should wash them carefully. If you have a pet, you must also have them treated of flea. Go to a veterinarian and ask for the proper medication for pets. One must also change the diet of their pets.

If that guideline is ineffective, contact the extermination company. They are capable of doing flea treatment for your place. They will also give you some advice on what you can do about this problem.

That is the guideline on how you could exterminate fleas. If you have parasites like flea at your home, it would have a negative impact on your health. A person should really be sure that their house is completely cleaned.
