You don't need a sewer to make this stuff! And you can totally make it at home, but you might need to go to the store for the ingredients unless you happen to have borax sitting around and a half a cup of white glue. Anyway, check this out, and just remember, there are some cautions to using borax.*

*
- Pregnant women must stay away from borax.
- Borax is not safe to be used around cats and is known to cause severe breathing problems in them.
- Borax effectively treats adult fleas and flea larvae; however, it is not known to eliminate flea eggs. Thus, re-infestation is likely and one needs to reapply the product again after a few weeks.
- Borax powders should be kept away from moisture as it can render the product ineffective. Wet carpets can also get permanently discolored or damaged if borax is used on them.
- Borax powder must never be used directly on the pets’ body for killing fleas.
- Borax should not be used near household plants as it can cause toxicity.
- Pet owners with young children and babies should use borax powder with extreme caution as ingestion in large quantities** has been known to cause severe health complications, skin allergies etc
** Has anyone defined what a "large quantity" is?
