Eggs do not stick to fabrics or your pet, so they’re usually found on the floor or wherever they may have fallen off a pet. Use a magnifying glass if you have trouble finding any eggs since they’re small and can be easy to miss. Look for areas in your home that don’t get a lot of foot traffic since fleas are more likely to lay their eggs there. Flea eggs are more likely to be in carpet than hardwood or tile, but you may still find a few there....

Use your fingers or a veggie brush to give the root a quick scrub, removing any dirt that is stuck to it. If you’re using a brush, angle it to get into all the corners of the gnarled root.
