| Pretty pricey aren't they!!! Would the company be willing to post "exactly" what the ingredients are in whatever your interested in? Maybe this site could help you in a much safer and inexpensive way. Chinaroad Lowchens of Australia - Ticks, fleas, bees, flies, snakes and other gremlins! And how to deal with them! |

I have used the granules on my lawn. I wanted to try the spray this year, but our Wal-Mart doesnt carry it anymore, at least not where I could find it. I think it helps.

| Borax Borax Borax We have fleas BAD in our area. I have tried all kinds of stuff and this really works! 20 Team Mule Borax...you get it in the laundry isle at Wal-Mart sprinkle all over carpets, under everything and let sit for a few hours...vacumm up and you will not have fleas. Treat your dogs with a flea preventative and you will have only spent about $3-4 on the carpets. I only use every one to 2 months and we have not had a problem since. They say you can even use on the lawn! Do a Google on Borax and Fleas... |

| The 20 Team Mule Borax looks interesting! I think I will give it a try if our Walmart carries it. |

| I use a product called Flea Treats. Their web site is "www.fleatreat.com" I have four dogs (three are yorkies) and I have never seen a flea or tick. I live in the mountains of California and have wild critters (raccoon, oppossum, skunk etc) and do know they come in the yard surrounding our house. Even with these wild critters, have never had a flea. Have used this product for years and swear by them. For 500 tablets which my dogs love, it is around 24 dollars. It is given by weight. An example: 0 to 29 lbs is 1 tablet in the morning and 1 at night. I would never use anything else. Hope this info helps. |
