Flea Paper

We've been battling fleas for a few weeks now. Anne decided she'd had enough, so she bought some flea bombs. Set them off before I left for lunch today. Spread out newspaper where I was going to set off the aerosols like the instructions said.

I must have used a month's worth of newspapers. Newspapers have been shrinking, in case you haven't noticed, and only about half the pieces of paper are actual full-size newspaper sheets. The daily paper is like four sections, with about eight pages each, which means you get eight full size sheets. (A sheet makes four pages, two sheets make one section.)  To properly prepare the aerosol launching site, your really need 13 sheets: a 3 by 3 base, followed by a 2 x 2 second layer. Three bombs means 39 sheets, divided by eight sheets per daily paper comes to five days. Okay, it's only a weeks worth. Still.
