I feel for you. I lived in a house in Norfolk, Va for a couple years and if I walked out in the yard with white socks on they would instantly be covered by fleas. It was a pretty bad time for me because the house got infested too. (Scratch Scratch)
Diazinon is supposed to help but I would think that a spray would cover better and be more effective.
PS, You DO know that they sell new hoses at the hardware store, right? They also have repair parts....

the fleas are probably coming from the several stray cats in the area.

nope, ground type/condition starts the buggers. animals just act as taxis....more watering can also be a large reduction but I don't know if you guys have to pay for water metering....do you have that timer/watering set up? or just a really bored neighbor LOL
I was gonna say 'shoot to kill' but have an orange cat who I think the world of....heh, me, of all people with a cat....
simple kids pin wheels keep feral cats away. they don't trust that kind of moving thing that glints...
kinda like chaikwa too......

I've got fleas so bad in my wifes storage building that you can't even open the door or you'll be covered up. So far I've put off 7 bug bombs at once and used my propane fogger but nothing is working. The problem is there is so much stuff in there that I can't spray the floor effectively and I figured bombs would do the trick. I'm almost ready to set it on fire
...any suggestions?
I've got to get in there in a couple of weeks and need these things dead!!!!!!!!!!

I called the exterminator and told him to break a window, pump the nastiest stuff he had in there and then shut it up for a while. Hopefully that'll take care of it!!!!
