Natural flea and tick dip:
2 cups, packed, of fresh rosemary and/or peppermint
1 quart boiling water
4 quarts warm water
Pour the just boiled water over the fresh herbs and let steep, covered, for 30 minutes. Strain and add the liquid to the 4 quarts of warm water and then saturate the animal. Let it air dry.
Flea Spray
Spray her with an herbal mixture of:
chamomile
valerian
licorice
witch hazel
Prepare an infusion using one tea bag of each herb, and when it’s cold, mix it with witch hazel.
Garlic and Brewyer’s Yeast
Has the reader tried garlic and/or brewyer’s yeast? You can purchase capsules of either at health food stores and at some chains of stores. have your pet swallow one a day, the taste/smell will get in their coats and fleas do NOT like the taste.
If the fleas have gotten into the house, place a small pan of soapy water in the middle of the room at night with a small light (tea light candles sitting in the water work well) near the pan. The fleas will jump towards the light and end up in the water. In the morning, flush the water.
Borax Eliminates Fleas
Mix four parts of Borax with one part of salt, and sprinkle over your carpet. The mixture gets down amongst the fibers, and dehydrates the fleas and eggs, and prevents them re-hatching. This works great, and it is much more effective and cheaper than “flea bombs.”
Removing a tick from your pet
I have seen a full blown tick drop off of a dog onto the floor with just a single drop of undiluted tea tree oil, when applied directly to tick. Also cleaning pet bedding with pure essential oils help repel varmints.
