AdamsPlus Carpet Powder, Kills Fleas and Ticks On Contact, Kills All Stages of the Flea Life Cycle, 30 Day Protection, Freshens and Deodorizes, Treats Up to 400 Sq Ft, 1LB

This stuff really works and has a surprisingly nice scent.Almost a little too nice so be careful because it is not good to breathe the fallout.It is incredibly effective though

Just like all products with their fake promises that it does something it clearly doesn't, however it does take time and it all worked out in the end.My sister brought her dogs to the house unknowing they had fleas (yeah right, she had to have known, how do you not known that??) which in return spread to my dogs and before I knew it the whole house was infested. This is not something I ever wanted to go though so you can just imagine the conversation I had with her over this. I bought this product because it said "Kills Fleas and Ticks On Contact" well.. that it did NOT do. As a test, I caught some fleas and put them in a plastic bowl, sprinkled some powder in and closed the lid. It took about 3 days for the fleas to die, but then my housemate brought up the question of did the powder kill them or did they die to suffocation?Well who cares but either way it took about 2-3 months to finally rid the house and dogs of fleas. This was the only product I used on the carpets and furniture so I can't say it didn't work, just not as fast as I hoped it would. It literally killed me seeing my dogs digging and itching themselves to death and be bathed every single day and restricting them to certain areas of the house where fleas are less likely to thrive, but I'm happy they are finally gone.My sister and her little dogs are no longer allowed in my house.

The powder makes dust. It's not dusty when you use it. It's just dusty if you leave it down for awhile.I have used the shampoo on my cats. it works well. But I also use this in my hardwood floor cleaner. I love it! It really helps control the fleas that have some how entered our home.Fleas have never been a concern of mine. I currently have 2 indoor cats and 2 ferrets. I think the ferrets brought them into our lives. We got them from a rescue. I noticed they were scratching often but it was too late. They were not the only thing we rescued.I washed them in dish soap. it worked but it was only temporary. I vacuum everyday, and washed them every other day for a week but still was still a problem. so I started putting the shampoo in the hardwood floor cleaner. Now that helped a lot!. The fleas were living and multiply in the cracks of the hardwood flooring and tiles as well as the carpets and pets.Now we are flea and clear!

Used on outdoor carpet (under patio cover) and worked well.

OK, I can't review the efficacy because that would take months to confirm and I am using a three-prong attack anyway to make triple damn sure I kill these buggers so I won't be sure which, if any of the prongs, was successful. Why write a review then? I think I have some helpful information.First, it says covers 200 to 400 square feet per canister. Plan on the 200 end of the scale. I didn't think I laid it down particularly heavy and I went through it pretty quick.I gave it only 3 stars not because of it's efficacy, which as I said I can't be sure of, but for two reasons: One - it is so fine, it gets everywhere. Even if you close off a room, the simple act of opening the door once and even a slight crack around the door will spread a fine powder, the smell, and presumably the poison, to the rest of the house (and yes I turned the AC off). Well that would be fine since you are trying to kill the buggers right? But it says all over the canister how poisonous it is, don't let it touch your skin, breath it in, get on your clothes, etc. It also says in the directions, "Do not apply this in a way that will contact humans or pets, either directly or through drift." And "Do not enter treated areas until dust has settled." And yet it says to, "shake powder" [onto rugs] and "brush...with broom to force powder deep into carpet." When I did this I was enveloped in a worrisome cloud of dust. I even bought a nice organic canister, well-sealed face respirator just for this task, and I could still smell and taste the stuff as I did it. I'm sure it was all over my skin, my eyes, my clothes, in my lungs and digestive tract... How are you supposed to follow the directions and yet not enter the area or have it contact you? Wear a spacesuit?If they are telling you all the scary stuff to just cover their hineys with the lawyers, that's a foul. If it really is so bad, then you can't possibly apply this stuff without major exposure, unless you have a spacesuit. I don't know what the answer is, except maybe Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth instead (that's my third prong).

The product works wonders and instantly asf can be messy but worth the buck to kill flea infestations

I followed the instructions carefully, but I have no idea how anyone is supposed to avoid breathing this in or getting it on their skin or eyes—it filled my entire room with a thick cloud! The smell was so overpowering that it clung to my clothes, and I had to leave the room multiple times because I couldn't handle it. I let it sit for 24 hours as recommended for 'best results,' then vacuumed and left the room for another full day. When I came back, it was worst —it was like the fleas multiplied over night, almost as if the powder had acted like fertilizer! It was so bad that I ultimately gave up on my carpet. I would not recommend this product.
