How long of wait to vaccum the carpet after application of Fleabusters? can this powder be sprinkled inside the kitchen cabinets or bathroom vanity?

My understanding was to rub the product into the carpet, then vacuum any excess powder that remains. I used it every where that the animal had access to, or where these pest can jump to..

You can sprinkle powder and leave it overnight before vacuuming. You can leave it under your sofas. I left it under my sofas. You can sprinkle in your vanities and kitchen cabinets. I put it in the corners and just left it there. It is odorless, but if you have children you don't want them to taste it!

An hour is plenty. It has an odor but its not Terrible. It can go in cabinets. Vanity, and hardwood floors. Just vacuum excess. More important it does work!

we sprayed all over carpet, rugs, mattress box spring (in the back thru cheesecloth then covered with bedbug cover. Spray cracks along walls, in between molding. it may take up to 2wks to notice difference with spray. but u cant let up at first...every 2-3 days, reapply because of unforeseen eggs...but i used this n combo with the diatomaceous earth....it may take 2 gallons...spray any hiding place you can think of....even turn over couches and spray under, its work.

This product cannot be used on hard plastics like computers and laptops. It wouldn't be absorbed and might actually cause problems by getting into the interior of the computers thereby raising heat levels along with other issues. You could leave it in your carpet without vacuuming it out I suppose, but that goes against the directions and may not be safe for your family or pets. It is designed to go into your carpet, and then have the majority vacuumed up while leaving behind small amounts high enough to kill fleas. Leaving this product in your carpets may also create lots of very fine dust in the home that is hard on your lungs and should not be breathed in.

I would suggest keeping your cat out of house for at least a week after using. Iy can harm them if they ingest it or get it on thier paws.The odor is strong. Also if you use it repeat a few times then shampoo carpet with super HOT water. Good luck I know how bad fleas can get. Once out of control.

I used it on all our furniture, pulling up the cushions and spraying underneath. I have denim and darker upholstery so you might want to test first. The fleas hide everywhere. I highly recommend this spray. We haven't had a problem since. Now I spray once a year right before the worst part of the flea season starts.

Not long maybe 30-40 min. Maybe you did not spray enough on. I used a whole can for a living room and furniture. Another for bedrooms.

I would wait for the carpet to dry completely. The carpet might be 'crunchy' if you apply while it's wet.

It prevents the fleas from being able to lay eggs by using a chemical that's a hormone disruptor. I usually spray it on the rugs, vacuum a day later. I don't ever see any residue, but I can feel it wet on my feet for a short while afterwards. You have to spray again about a week later to kill and disrupt those fleas that have just hatched from the eggs. I don't think there's anything on the market that will actually kill eggs before they hatch. But after 2 or 3 sprays, you're done. Unless your pet keeps bringing in more fleas from outside. Then you have to treat the animal too, which is always a good idea. Hope this helps. It prevents the fleas from being able to lay eggs by using a chemical that's a hormone disruptor.

good question. I have not received my vac or the Zorb product yet, and when I called them, they had no clear answer, but they did say how to use: sprinkle sparingly on the carpet; work it in with the Zorb groomer (either by hand or attached to the vac - but do not turn the vac on yet); wait an hour or so for the fine powder to work; then vacuum. Also, use of the larger, heavier carpet cleaning powders are not as effective and may clog the vac filters. Hope that helps. I will post a review after I have actually used the product.

Yes, before placing anything back into the cabinets, please wipe of the spray. This product work's better in crevices and behind appliances.

I sprayed the carpet throughout my entire apartment with no problems. I have a computer in my bedroom, and it was not affected at all. I don't own a flat screen TV. After spraying, I opened some windows, and waited outside for a while for the fumes to subside.

I put about 1/4" dots of the paste on the floor at the base of the cabinets, behind my washer and dryer, in the bathrooms along the walls. Yes, it does still work after drying but I did re-apply it in the same manner every 6 weeks about 3 times, then every 4-6 months until I had no more problems. If I see even 1 roach, I do it all over again! Be sure to put it where pets won't get to it.

Diatomatious Earth is way better to use in carpets for fleas then this solution. So much more natural than chemicals and will not harm you or your pets. Just don't inhale a lot of it. This dust penetrates deep into the carpet targeting these sneaky little buggers. I hate 'em and look to kill Kill KILL any chance I get, and this does the trick. Just a suggestion for you as an alternative. Diatomatious Earth will also kill ants. Look it up.

I bought my sister 5# of the material and she put in on her carpets and her cats. she still has fleas in the house. also they are on the cats but they are not as numerous as they were. I then purchased ultracide from a pest control store. She sprays this on the carpets and basement floors.. the basement is clear of fleas and areas of the house. best answer I can give you.

It would be difficult to get this sprinkled into a crawl space. It's very effective for the yard. You might try a spray for your crawl space. Lysol spray will kill the odor and kill fleas. If you want a spray designed for animal stool and urine odor in the yard, you might try NaturVet Yard Odor Eliminator. I got that here, too. I've only used it once, so I can't personally recommend it. Good luck!

No, I do nothing and that is what the directions say. All you do is add the pellets to the WARM water, wait about 20 minutes (to let the pellets disolve) and spray. If the area is really bad you might need to spray a couple of times. This works better than anything I have ever used. In my basement after I used the fizzion (where my cats are) I later (after fizzion dried) shampooed my carpet, but is was not necessary for any staining and odor. This also has NOT left my carpet with bleached stains or any damage.

Do you mean "disperse?" I just pour some in it, screw the top back on & press down. It's kind of like an accordian so it puffs out though sometimes it gets stuck & I flip it upside down & then back upright & puff again. D.E. is thicker than baby powder, that's why it gets stuck. Don't breathe it though & don't put it near windowsills or an A/C where it could fly around. Make sure to use the correct gradeof D.E. (NOT pool grade which is toxic but D.E. made for pest control). I mainly used it in the floor boards & right in front of floor boards. Then when I vaccuumed I used a mask cuz I'm sure that stuff probably doesn't all get filtered in the vaccuum cleaner. I think I remember reading or hearing that it absorbs humidity so you have to renew every now & then. I think I did it once a week when I had bed bugs. Jeff White has a video on D.E. & he shows how to use it at bedbugcentral.com. It might even be on YouTube.
