Nematodes will definitely help in controlling fleas. The use of
diatomaceous earth will also help, but it only helps when it is dry. If it
gets wet it is useless. The diatomaceous earth is very sharp and abrasive
to a flea and it essentially cuts and abrades the fleas and they basically
dehydrate and die. It is VERY important to use natural diatomaceous earth
and not "D E" that has been treated for use in swimming pool filters. You
can find information on both of these topics on the Dirt Doctor's site

I am not affiliated with his site. Tons of good organic info there.

Has anyone had any luck with beneficial nematodes in tryin to control
fleas? TIA

Nematodes may help... but nematodes die very quickly if conditions
aren't perfect. Tried them for termites... no luck.
