Re: DIET_Borax: Flea Treatment

[Guest guest]

Learned this from a dog trainer

what also helps is whats in there diet.  Cats diet should consist of a 80 to 90

protein diet (no corn,soy, grains)  Dogs, need real vegetables and some

fruits.  They are herbivores like us.   again no corn or soy.  Costco and

traders Joes both have very healthy dog food

never had a flea problem

A vet told me long ago to use head and shoulders for both cats and dogs. I

have never used anything else and seems to work great. I rarely find any fleas

on them and I use 20 muleteam? borax for indoors and it does kill fleas roaches

and eggs

>

> No the borax was for everything else (furniture, floors, etc.). I caved and

used an all natural but still fumey tick shampoo for the dog because I had no

choice. There are all natural products out there but they still contain the

chemical needed to kill the fleas.

Diatomeous Earth kills fleas and is safe!

I am about to get a dog that was raised and so were his parents and grandparents

on the raw food diet. The entire line is healthy and have all lived longer than

the standard life expectancy touted for the breed.

They even get chciken bones to chew on. As bones that are cooked splinter and

the raw ones are perfectly fine for them.

This is his diet

2-3% body weight

75-85% meat

chicken thighs 2/meal

turkey

no pork

no beef

no grain

no cabbage

no onions

no corn

no peas

Carrots

Broccoli

Asparagus

String Beans

Cherry

Blueberries

Tomatoes

Apples

Plain yogurt

Canned pumpkin

Sardines

The vet is an ASS! H & S has formaldehyde in it!

Thanks...I read that, too, about the food.  Since then, I am giving them really

good food with no fillers.  My dog is highly sensitive to any flea products; I

do believe she is as sensitive as I am, so I won't give her a bath with the flea

products.  I worry about any chemicals, even those found in Head and Shoulders,

with her, as her little tummy just turns red and she's miserable.  Don't want

to

chance it.  Still waiting for this Cedarcide.  What is that " earth " stuff

again?  Where do you find it?

Do you sprinkle the diatomeous earth on cat back and neck and leave it on?

Iknow my stray used to roll in a dry patch of dirt and get all lpowdered up with

dry dirt and never had fleas. Maybe the fleas don't detect him or the dirt is

abrassive to fleas or dry them. I feed a high protein, no grain diet

already.

About Diatomaceous Earth:  If you have lung problems do not inhale, powder is

very fine.  Fleas like unhealthy pets. If you are going to use it use FOOD

GRADE

ONLY:
