## Description

Protect your home from fleas and ticks with ADAMS Plus Flea & Tick Carpet Powder. This effective flea treatment for homes uses a combination of proven ingredients for dual-action pest protection on your carpets and upholstery. Linalool and pyrethrins target and kill adult insects, while pyriproxyfen kills flea eggs and larvae, helping to prevent future infestations for long-lasting control. One container of this flea carpet powder treats 400 square feet and provides year-long protection against reinfestation. Simply shake and distribute evenly across carpets, rugs or furniture. Wait 60 minutes before vacuuming, or 24 hours for best results. The formula kills fleas and ticks on contact while controlling reinfestation for up to 12 months. Beyond pest control, this treatment freshens your home with a pleasant citrus scent and eliminates deep pet odors. Fleas can cause your pet discomfort and irritation, while their eggs fall off and develop in your home - making elimination of both stages critical. The best protection you can offer your pet is protecting them and the areas where they live and play. Since only 5% of fleas live on your pet, use this powder with other ADAMS products to protect your pet, home and yard for complete pest control. Since 1975, the people who bring you ADAMS have helped owners confidently care for their pets, ensuring they live happy and healthy lives.

Review: Extremely effective BUT... - We sadly got flees in our home from a friend's house and our cat had them which spread them all over the house. A loved one in our household is special needs and the bites were driving her crazy. This power was extremely effective BUT... 1. It's extremely strong odor. I didn't have respirator which I will get if use this again and gloves. Don't underestimate this stuff, it's a pesticide and no joke. 2. Keep in mind we need to leave this on the carpet for 24 hours. You also need to take a broom after spreading it to work it into the carpet. This will create so many dust/powder in the air and why I recommend a respirator and not just a face mask. We instantly realized we had to open up the window and turn on fans with the door closed in the room we treated as a test. No one was allowed in the room until later that night when the air felt breathable again. When inspecting the room we found dead fleas on everything. Nightstands, book case, everything which was great to see. 3. Toxicity, when you use this stuff make sure no pets or people are on the carpet. I say people because our family member will special needs, it was her room and she wanted to play with her Legos which we couldn't let her do. We vacuumed twice the next day and thankfully she hasn't had any skin reactions after being on the floor. Pros/cons- it's effective but treating the entire house with it is a difficult situation. It's not as easy for us to just put the cat in a room for 24hrs while treating a living room and other room, we would have to have to make sure our family member isn't in any zone being treated. Hotels arnt a option. Also if we did the living room the entire house would be unable to be used because air quality with the chemicals. We might use this in the rooms we don't really use but it's not something we can use for the entire house. It is extremely effective just keep all this in mind.
Review: Works as advertised - I was nervous to use this product being a natural alternative person, but it worked as advertised, It killed the initial infestation 3 months ago and I haven’t seen it come back. The smell after the treatment was nice too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have a strong odor?**
A: no strong odor but if you have breathing problems I suggest wearing a mask when you brush it in the carpet, it creates a fog but works great. Hope this helps

**Q: Does this product contain diatamaceous earth? Previous questions have alluded to this but never actually answered the specific question.**
A: I just looked on the label and it does not list diatomaceous earth.

**Q: How long is it before cats can go back in the rooms/house?**
A: As soon as you vacuum the powder off the floors, it should be safe for your animals. My cats and dog did not show any ill effects when I let them back in after vacuuming.

**Q: How long does this product last before needing to treat again?**
A: I used this product one time and never needed to reuse it again in the 12 months i was living in that house. My dog was an indoor dog though and we were very good at not bringing them in the house again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pricey but it is the BEST
*by D***T on November 25, 2025*

This is the absolute best product I have tried for carpet treatment and prevention. It works immediately and lasts for a while. The ONLY drawback is the price. For the size of the container the price point is too much. I would still recommend you spend the extra for Adams because it only takes one treatment and you are set. I have two mini schnauzers who go in and out of the house year round and while using this product I have had zero issues.
