DustMite and Flea Control
This product provides relief from: Dust Mites
DustMite and Flea Control by The Ecology Works® is the clean and natural way to kill dust mites and fleas in carpet and upholstery and keep them away. Mix DustMite and Flea Control with water and use as a spray or in a carpet steamer (or water extraction machine) to create an environment that is absolutely fatal to dust mites & fleas but is perfectly natural and harmless to your family and pets. DustMite and Flea Control is not a harsh chemical or dangerous poison, but a natural Boron Compound much like the Borax used in laundry cleaning. This clear, odorless treatment has a neutral pH that does not stain light-colored fabrics.
DustMite and Flea Control comes in a powdered form that you mix with water. Choose the 8-oz bag to treat up to 200 sq. ft., or the more economical 2-lb bag to treat up to 800 sq. ft. Also available from The Ecology Works is DustMitex, a pre-mixed, ready-to-use form of DustMite and Flea Control in a 32-oz spray bottle that treats 50 sq. ft. (DustMitex sold separately).
