LOL! You would think, huh? The way I understand it is that the particles are so small they stab tiny critters like fleas, but pass right through larger "critters" like humans and dogs, etc... I've read where farmers add it to the grain they sell for human consumption, people use it around the house in their carpets, and people even sprinkle it on their dogs. You should read up on it...seems like a pretty cool natural remedy! I need to look into it more, but my thinking was that after vacuuming, you would have to retreat carpets....maybe it would take a couple of vacuuming's to need to retreat?? I don't know. It may not be very cost-effective to use ALL the time, but you don't really need it all the time. I know neither of us treat for fleas unless we see them anyway, so it may be worth it to have on hand in that case. I should probably practice what I preach and get some too....I just haven't gotten around to it yet!!
