Raid Flea Killer Carpet & Room Spray, Kills hatching eggs for up to 4 months, 16 Oz

Seems to be effective. We found a few fleas on our cat, so wanted to treat the furniture and carpet. Smell isn’t bad and it fades quickly. No sign of bugs.

We have a carpeted home and no inside pets. Some how we got fleas and were out of our minds trying products. Nothing worked...until we tried RAID. While it is strong smelling it does the job. Using it and vacuuming daily did the trick.

This is the best I have found for fleas indoors. Although it kills other insects as well, I concentrate on the yearly flea epidemic. Its safe for all pets except fish. Just follow the directions. We've used it for over 25 years.

This worked to kill a dust mite infestation. The coverage was nowhere near what the can said. I sprayed about 90% of an 8x5 low-pile carpet with a can and I needed a second can to do the remaining 10%. Maybe I went too slow but I really wanted to be sure. The smell is tolerable but it almost smells stuffy like mildew or rain or dew or something. It's been one month since I sprayed and most of the smell is gone but I can still smell some fragrance on things that are left on the carpet.Full story:Sometimes I leave a TV remote, laptop, game controller, etc on this carpet. I noticed at the beginning of the summer that the bottom of anything I left on the carpet was getting covered in what I thought was specks of dust. I would routinely clean. One time a day after cleaning I lifted up the remote and the bottom was covered in tons of specks. Something didn't seem right. I looked at the remote under a handheld microscope and holy sh__ the specks were mostly crawling mites. I freaked out! Their faces were super scary.So began my war on dust mites.I vacuumed everything in the house. I mean I literally spent all day with earplugs in vacuuming everything. I threw away the vacuum bag and filters and put in new ones. I coated the problem carpet in puffs of boric acid powder that I brushed into the carpet fibers. I figured, everything is vacuumed, dry and the boric acid should make it impossible for the mites to live in the carpet. Didn't work.Then I figured, well, they must be spreading from the remotes and laptop right? So I tried lysol to saturate the carpet and every surface contacting it. Didn't work.I used a handheld steamer and steamed the carpet leaving it wet. It was pretty messy and very slow. (I think I needed a special steamer that would put out dry steam.) Didn't work.I used a hair dryer on the carpet to dry out from the previous day. Also very slow it took hours to really heat it up. I then used the hair dryer on the remotes and laptop. That last one big mistake, I melted some of the laptop keys into a curled up wavy state. Oops. And, agonizingly, didn't work.At this point I started looking for professional kill formulas instead of any random thing I'd read on google. One thing I read was that dust mite eggs embed themselves deep in carpets past where vacuums can get them. Another thing I read was a patent US5843981A on dust mites with a special formula that killed them and compared its formula to other formulas with higher concentrations that didn't work as well. Intriguing. The formula matched Raid Flea and Tick Killer Plus. (Note the non-Plus version looks almost exactly the same but doesn't stop eggs so make sure to get the Plus version).A month later, I still see an occasional specks of dust on things I leave on the carpet. I check with the microscope and it's actual dust or boric acid powder granules (which, coincidentally, look almost the same as specks of dust) but no mites.I'm sorry to tell you that from what I've read you can never fully get rid of dust mites they just live with us off our skin flakes. As long as they have a food source (and by that I mean us) they will always be around. Don't look under the microscope or you will drive yourself insane.

This product got rid of my 'no-see-ums'It smells better than any other bug spray I've ever used.

Look it worked. I did have to vacuum, sweep and mop. Wash everything, bathe and treat 2 cats and a dog,but it still worked. Thankfully we didn’t have a terrible infestation but it was bad enough. We sprayed on Monday, treating everything while it dried. After a couple of hours we aired out the apt and put everything back together. Couch cushions , rugs, all of it was washed and sprayed. We were still seeing fleas on Thursday. So we sprayed again. Sunday we realized we hadn’t been but or seen a flea. It’s now early Monday morning with no fleas in sight. Depending on how bad the fleas are and how diligent you are about getting every crack and crevice determines your results. I wasn’t playing, so we were able to get rid of ours. Don’t just spray and pray that it’s some magical formula that will eliminate the fleas in 15 minutes. It’s not going to do that, no product will. This does work, just put the time and elbow grease in.

I have been using this spray for years. Mainly for fleas & it keeps them at bay. I haven't found anything better. I can spray my rugs, my sofa, carpet, curtains etc.

I had a very bad case of fleas in the house from the dog our grandson dumped on us when he went in the army. We got the dog treated with stuff from the vet and that worked great. I sprayed and sprayed with this stuff it did not slow fleas down very fast. It took close to a month to get rid of the fleas. I did spray this in the clear canaster on my vacume and it killed the fleas in there. I ended up buying large stickers to get rid of bugs off plants. I taped them around the bottoms of the walls they got covered in fleas. That was a game changer for the dang fleas.
