Put moth balls (not the whole package! A couple) in your vacuum bag; but mothballs aren't really safe to breathe, but the moment I stopped doing that, I got inundated. I don't know if it's the weather or just a bumper crop of fleas this year or because I had stopped using the mothballs, but I have never had fleas like this! I see them running in their fur! I can't bathe them again due too the excessively deep skin shredding received while bathinng them this time per the doctor and I have to take antibiotics to ward off cat scratch fever; but Imma try this brewers yeast thing and the diawhatever earth!
Not so easy if you've more than one or two pets. I've got twenty cats to care for and I've been using both imidacloprid and fipronil, interchangeably, for the last thirty years. I use partial doses for the topicals. Never had any problems. Also use Precore spray on bedding and carpets, no problems so far. I will try your brewers yeast suggestion but I am skeptical. Fleas have millions of years of evolution on their side and will continue to be present no matter what we use to prevent them.
Hey, loving what you are sharing…..what about worms?
Spinal fluid of children? Where does that come from readily?
OMG don’t use dish soap! Or go ahead. Watch how much your poor dog itches when you strip the oils from their skin.
My cat eats catnip regularly and we recently got fleas. Never had them before and I never use preventative. All of a sudden they were everywhere. There's brewers yeast in my dogs food.
That stuff killed one of my cats. A neighbour kept putting it on him once a month despite me telling her not to. He used to visit her house and so she thought it was ok to do it.
Used some from old Hartz. Deceased my cats. Hartz wanted autopsy report to make any good. Bwahahaha
No longer use meds from (p)harma for animals.
Apple cider vinegar kills fleas.
Salt kills flies.
Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔
Fleas and mosquitoes are so damn profitable huh. All the species driven to extinction by human behavior but noooo not these little blood suckers
Diatomaceous Earth:
WARNING!!! It's safe to eat, but dangerous for people and animals to breathe (Same goes for asbestos, funny enough).
Wear an N95 mask when applying it. A light dusting is all that's needed around cracks & crevasses.
My dog had a seizure just hours after giving him Bravecto. Vet prescribed anti-seizure med. This morning, he had 5 seizures in less than 2 hours.
I use natural, pure, undiluted Lavender oil. It heals the itch and kills the fleas. Takes a while but they never come back.
How about nexguard. Or super trio. Pills that vet suggest to give to your dog every month
🤗👍🏼
catnip is a must it just amazing that cat have natural prevention for flea
They had a class action lawsuit on fipronil for giving 100 lb dogs siezures
Fipronil gave me cancer. And my friend that sprayed Termidor termite pesticide on foundations of new homes
It is stored in fat so builds up on organs over time
What about worming? Cat and dog
I use that stuff on me because I have fleas embedded in my skin laying eggs everywhere my legs my arms my back my stomach even my breast and I went to the Doctor's they said that it was out of my head and I have Magellan disease! I'm so I brought it simple they said all they epithelial cells ead alll they could see I bring in samples
00:20 bathe dogs in river, got it.
Something like coconut oil must be organic and unadultered as well as any food type treatment- olive oil, seeds, apple cider vinegar! You have to rub in the coconut oil well and every other day. It is also good for the skin and of course your dog or cat can lick it. It works for my Yorkie perfectly. We are going through a flea issue and 2 cats are the ones keeping the fleas going so I will try some of these suggeations. DI also good for worms as fleas carry parasites.
You are absolutely right!!! Every time I put that on my german shepherd he loses his hair in the area I apply.😢 So I stopped. Thank you…
Back in 2001 i had sibling cats both die from Hartz flea drops. Don’t ever use any thing made by Hartz 😢😢😢
That's all well and good, but when you've bathed your dogs, washed, mopped everything in your house, and the infestation is still out of control, even after using these so called natural fucking remedies and sprays, yeah, I'm going to use it. There's nothing worse than seeing your dog chewing themselves until they bleed, while walking around with massive bald spots all over their body. Really getting sick and tired of people pushing natural remedies when science can offer something that works. Of course there will be a chance something will happen, but you know what there's a good chance they'll live as long as my 12-year-old Rottweiler… Rott's rarely live 12 years and guess what, he's had at least 3 treatments of frontline over the course of his life, and he's still kicking. There's a time and place for natural remedies, but don't let your dog suffer because of what, "might", happen.
This vet is a hero!!!
I know for a fact that the generic form of revolution insecticide unalived two of my dear cats after treating them with one dose each. If your cat or dog does get fleas, definitely use the powder of food grade diatomaceous earth on their coat. I also use food-grade diatomaceous earth as stones for flooring outside of my shower which my cat loves on it. Thnx for the idea abt brewer’s yeast. Glad I found your channel.🫠🐾
Can you use just coconut oil and leave that on the skin for a few minutes then wash it off with smile shampoo
My cat died 10 days ago. I took her off the streat; a fleabag. I used 3 times 3 pippets Flea crean Combo. in 15 months time. She became lethargisch, stopped eating, lost trust in me and finally her brave life at 2 yeas young.
What about revolution ? The vet ( who I just started using with my kittens) gave me free revolution. I have zero interest in using it .
Can you use dried Thyme as in the spice aisle at the grocery store and how much Thyme do we give daily?
What a fabulous video. Most insightful. God bless you and keep you and your animals thriving always. So practical! Better than Dr Doolittle. All our love to precious little Tula for helping demonstrate. Sh'e a dog champion! We love ya Tula!
My cat was taking a steroid shot to stop her asthma attacks
Which she started having 2yrs ago.
2 months ago she was diagnosed with feline diabetes.sje has to have ,2 shots a day and her Vet said it was probably due to the steroid shot. But if she goes without it she has asthma attacks up to 10+ a day. I have increased her protein in her diet changed her dry food to a high protein one and the canned food high in protein as well as cooked chicken breast and fresh salmon.what can be given in place of her steroid to control her asthma.she lost 7 lbs from almost 20 lbs to 13-14 lbs and drinks half her bowl of water at one sitting which she hardly ever use to drink which makes her use her litter box more. But it seems to be working she's playing&more active now and has an appetite am hoping with her diet& health changes that one day she won't need& won't have to have the shots anymore.Any advice you can give me on this Id really appreciate it.Have a Blessed New Year
@4:50 Unless the catnip brings tons of stray cats to your house….
How do I give brewers yeast to a 3 month kitten, she itching behind her ears?
SO WAT DOES FLEA EGGS LOOK LIKE
Really love this vet who loves animals but also think about sustainability ❤. But can I use neem oil? In one of the video in this channel it says it can. But why google's AI said it is toxic? Confused!
Is catnip & thyme in their food in morning, then brewers yeast on their food for lunch safe to do daily? I have a 5month old cavapoo and we will be hiking a lot this summer so I’m worried about ticks and fleas and prefer to go natural for preventatives instead of chemicals
I applied it to my cat. She died 3 days later 🙁
My mum's cat lost it's fur on the back of her neck for month's. Not good my dad had old malawssh
I heard garlic.. edit cats wont show venomous snake bite sign's for hour's so if u think your cats bitten go just in case😢😢 my brother lost his
I adore this vet!
