    Thanks for adding that, I forget sometimes to say that and it does make a difference.
    I have a large can of pyrethrin spray that I do monthly sprays of the carpet and surrounding areas which is partly why I haven't been re-infested lately.
    Best safer than sorry when it comes to those nasty mites.
    Generic head lice bedding spray works equally well
