I've had good short term results for fleas on pets with Adam's flea and tick control. Outside, I have noticed areas on the ground that seem to be ongoing flea beds. I've used coal-oil(kerosene)in a pump-up sprayer on the outdoor flea beds and I don't see fleas in those locations for a week. In the old days, mothers used it to treat head lice on their children. Deisel fuel in a sprayer would probably work longer but is less environmentally friendly. Coal-oil is less messy and it does not leave a permanant oily residue in the ground as diesel fuel does. There is a #1 grade and a #2 grade coal-oil. Grade #1 is safer. It's the kind old timers used in oil lamps in the house. I find diatomatious earth works well for inside the house.

I hope this isn't too harmful to use for us humans. I just moved to my new apartment and I also have a store nearby both needing insect sprays. I'm having a problem with small insects (I don't know what they are) outside my store since it's in an open air so it doesn't have corners and people are passing by.

Thanks for the tip, maybe that will help. I neglected to do a perimeter spray with this season’s ants – hence they are still showing up. Thanks for the tip, maybe that will help.
