How to get rid of fleas in your house with a common condiment

How to get rid of fleas in your house with no cost

Fleas can be one of the most annoying creatures ever and if your'e reading this, I'm sure you know that!  Believe it or not, all you need is a salt shaker!  Yes, plain old table salt!

I had fleas that were apparently brought in by my precious pets and I tried everything to get rid of them.  I started leaving the house every weekend so that I could set off bombs and chemicals and my chidren would not be exposed.  It became very inconvenient. I had used every chemical/bomb that you could imagine to get rid of them and nothing worked.  It was becoming a very real problem and I  wasn't about to get rid of my pets.

Come to find out, all you need is salt.  Sprinkle salt (with a salt shaker) on your carpets before you go to bed.  Sometime the next day vacuum the carpets.  Once again, before you go to bed, sprinkle the salt on the carpets and vacuum the next day.  Repeat the process until you see no more fleas.  This only took me 4 days.  It is best if you can change the vacuum bag after each usage but not an absolutely necessity.

This might take a little bit of time but it really does work!  The theory is that the fleas will eat the salt that will ultimately cause them to implode.  This is so much cheaper than all of the bombs and pesticides that don't work and it is absoutely safe.  I had main concerns about the feel walking around on salt and it sticking to my feet but it doesn't!
