The beginning of April is about the time that I start to plan my tick and flea avoidance strategy for the year.
There are so many downsides--for the environment, us and our pets--to using conventional pesticide remedies. There is also real danger for us and our pets from contracting tick borne illness such as Lyme Disease and let's face it, flea infestations are just plain horrible.
So how do we keep these unwanted pest insects out of our homes, off of us and our animals?
Here are a few great tips to green our flea and tick remediation:
- For starters a clean, well groomed pet and pet environment is essential. Pet bedding should be washed regularly. During the flea and tick season pets should be brushed and checked for pest insects every day.
- Vacuuming your home and carpets regularly helps as well.
- Keep the areas just outside your home where you walk your dog well pruned and mowed. Short grass is less likely to harbor fleas and ticks. Trim flowers and grasses away from walkways where fleas and ticks hide just waiting to jump.
- Walking and working outside in light colored clothing helps us spot ticks more easily.
- Do regular "tick checks" on yourself and your family, check behind the ears and in the scalp and crevices behind the knees and under arms. Ticks like to hide away in sheltered areas of the body.
- Keeping just a few Chickens can be a great help when it comes to cleaning your lawn and property of pesky ticks.
- This simple blend of Almond oil and Rose Geranium is the remedy that I will be trying this year!
- Check out this Natural Dog Health Remedies website for some great ideas.
Remember, just because it is for sale in a pet store, does not always mean it is safe!

If I speak in the Cheap Authentic NFL Jerseys tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all Official NFL Jerseys knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my USA Jerseys Shop body to the flames,but have not love, I gain nothing.Love is patient, NFL Jerseys love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it NHL Jerseys keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always MLB Jerseys hopes, always perseveres.Love never NHL Hockey Jerseys fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in MLB Baseball Jerseys part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappea. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a NBA Basketball Jerseys man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.And now these three remain: faith, hope and NFL Football Jerseys love. But the greatest of these is love.
