How To Kill Fleas With Salt

Pets : Dogs

One interesting tip that many people refer to as being cheap and effective is to salt carpets to help overcome a flea problem!

The theory is that the fleas and larva will come in contact and ingest the salt - this causes them to dehydrate and thus to dry, in the same manner that you might have seen with salt and slugs.

Apparently this works, and is worth a go because of course it is very cost effective and very safe - no nasty chemicals spread around the home, just some salt.
