3. Create a flea trap with dish soap

Fleas are attracted to dish soap. Mix it with water in bowls and place them in infested areas. The fleas will be drawn to the mixture and drown. Set these traps at night since fleas are nocturnal, and refresh the mixture daily. This simple yet effective method can significantly reduce the adult flea population in your home. It's a non-toxic solution that's safe for both pets and children.
