Can you sprinkle DE all over the carpet for bed bugs?

I did spread It on my carpet its a pain to clean though i have a dyson vac and its still hard to get it all. I also bought this BB spray made by "ORTHO" its called home defense max its $7.50 for a 18 oz can at home depo. It seems it work. If all else fails i Was able to get 98% DDT. in northern Maine and had it mailed to my house you can find anything out there. Good luck
