Nasty noise of floorboards

My home floorboards are made of wood, and because of some special reasons, there are not under-floor joists. Also the surface of the ground under the floorboards is not very smooth. These floorboards always squeak when you walk on them. It's so nasty! I've been troubled by it for a long time. I'm searching for a relevant solution from Internet, but it seems no simple and effective way to deal with this issue exists. Some people suggest blowing soft pencil shavings, French talc or talcum powder on the matting surface. This way would not reduce the movement between boards, but would lubricate the surfaces so that they do not squeak because of the reduced surface rubbing.

The object of 'search' is the location you're searching. To indicate what you are searching for, you you to say 'search for'.

"...it seems no simple and effective way to deal with this issue exists" could also be "...it seems there is no simple and effective way to deal with this issue."

'Puff' takes no object. You need to say you 'blew the powder'.

"soft pencil' is just the pencil. To say you wanted to blow the shavings you need to say that.

"Some people suggest to blow..." isn't wrong as far as I can tell, but sounds awkward . A more natural sentence is "Some people suggest blowing...".
