Diatomasious earth powder dust boxes and perches rub some on your hands and handle your doos this should take care of things .

If you are having to spray every week then the stuff is obviously not working, try chlorcarb, that should do the trick

Get Permitherin / Deosect from the vet mixes with water and you will eliminate your problem
