Eileen - 249708 Port Perry, ON 2/18/2013 5:17:11 AM We apply nematodes to our yard once a year, it is easy to apply but you must do it when it is raining or just before it rains. We get them from our locate Feed Store and they must be kept refrigerated and make sure they have not passed the expired date. The are also good for grud control on your lawn.
Jim Oklahoma City, OK 6/9/2010 3:57:27 PM I agree with BEAUMONT TX Very useful information. Where would one find nematodes for the yard?
Harvi Beaumont, TX 6/9/2010 6:54:52 AM Very useful information. Where would one find nematodes for the yard?
HappyDogBeds.com Fort Wayne, IN 6/8/2010 3:43:08 PM I agree that a combined treatment is needed in order to repel fleas and ticks. It takes some time and efforts in order to get rid of them. My dog has a terrible allergy reaction to fleas. Louise, I am sorry about your dog.
Louise Scottsdale, AZ 6/7/2010 4:00:15 PM Update your article, or proofread it- "Not a losing battle With fleas jumping from the carpet and ticks hiding in the grass, be thankful that it’s 2007." Really, 2007? I will never use spot flea repellent, far too many dogs have seizures(including one of mine, who has passed) from them.
Handoko Jakarta, IN 6/6/2010 7:01:17 PM Very clear and useful information. I agree that comprehensive prevention must be applied to both dog and home. If you can give an indication of garlic dosage that will be very useful.
JOHN MAYTOWN, PA 6/5/2010 10:39:09 AM THANKS 4 THE INFORMATION, IT WAS WELL WRITTEN. THIS IS ONE OF THE REASON'S I SUBSCRIBE 2 YOUR SITE. THANKS AGAIN.
Judith Byron, MI 6/4/2010 6:09:54 AM Our 2 Golden Retrievers (who have fairly thick coats) swim every other day in a lovely clean lake. They do not roll in sand. Will this swimming help control flea/tick population along with their spot on Rx?
Raymond Gloucester Point, VA 6/4/2010 4:35:01 AM vERY GOOD ARTICAL. We two types of preventive for what it does only cost about $1.50 pper day. A very good insurance I think.
Mary Decatur, AL 6/3/2010 9:28:41 PM I heard that you should ever give garlic to a dog too! I'm not doing that, but I do put a flea and tick preventive on my dog every month and I keep all areas clean. About a month ago, I visited my Son in the country and my dog got totally infested with fleas in 5 minutes of running in the grass! I had to give her two flea baths with stuff from the vet to kill them all. sheesh!
Rick Menominee, MI 6/3/2010 2:34:17 PM I hear and read that garlic is not good for dogs??? Who is correct?
