| RE: Peanut (Dachshund/Chihuahua) |
|
Peanut is darling! Bless you for helping senior dogs. My Maggie (Pom and Chihuahua) is probably 17, as near as anyone can figure out. I adopted her from a shelter seven years ago, where she was turned in with two puppies and no information. I think we were meant to find each other. ... View related article. |

| RE: Relieving Itching from Fleas |
|
Rub the gel from an aloe vera plant on the bites. That will take away the itch almost instantly! Everyone should have at least one aloe vera plant. It's been used for thousands of years for burns, bites and any skin problem. My vet once told me that it contains a topical anesthetic, a cortisone-like substance and an antibiotic. Great stuff! ...

| RE: Dog is Lethargic After Using Frontline |
Please find something less toxic to use on your beloved dog. All those products are toxic to animals and humans. I just flea comb mine, which works out fine. Since I have Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, I've had to learn about these things. I can't use ANY pesticide, which is healthier for me and my pets and the world anyway.
Good luck ... View related article. |

| RE: Treating Ant Bites |
|
If you have an aloe vera plant (everyone should have at least one), put the gel on your bites. Aloe has been used for thousands of years for all kinds of skin problems. I use it on any bites I or my dog get, and it takes the pain away almost immediately. My vet once told me it contains an antibiotic, a cortisone-like substance and a topical anesthetic. Wonderful plant! ... View related article. |

| RE: Store Seasonal Clothes With Dryer Sheets |
|
I'm afraid that I'm rather horrified at this idea. I, and others with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (now estimated to be 15 to 20 per cent of the population) would be made very ill by being anywhere near the chemicals in dryer sheets. And those chemicals aren't good for anyone else, either. ... View related article. |

i don't know about TV programs in your area, but in mine (Santa Barbara, CA) the RTV channel is showing that. You might check, and if so, make your own tapes. Good luck. ... View related article. |

| RE: Getting Rid of Bumble Bees |
|
I think you have carpenter bees, which make tunnels in the wood and raise their babies in them. I've had them making holes in the porch beams of my house for years. I have Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and can't use any pesticides, but finally got my son to get some borate and spray the holes and beams with that. Seems to be working. Try googling "carpenter bee" for info. Good luck. ... View related article. |
