Today's Topic FLEA PREVENTION

"Fritzl Says, No Fleas on Me!"

I get emails nearly everyday from people all over the world, asking me for my healing assistance with their pet companions.

Q: I always hear about the terrible side effects flea sprays have on animals. What can I use to prevent fleas from infesting my companion that is safe and natural?

A: I never use flea sprays and powders. If you do, you should use them sparingly! And avoid getting the chemicals in your companion’s ears, nose or throat. An animal has to have reached a certain age before the sprays can be used. Their lungs and respiratory system are highly sensitive to toxic chemicals and pollutants.

Do you spray “Off” onto your skin?

Their skin will quickly absorb the chemicals you place on them. These toxins are then absorbed into their bloodstream and held in their livers for detoxification. Your pet then has to excrete and dispose of all the harsh chemicals you are instilling onto them.

There are also sprays available especially for the treatment of infested carpets and furniture etc. These sprays are extremely dangerous to fish and birds. Remove all of God’s creatures from the room before using the spray. Leave the room that has been treated with these sprays closed for about an hour and then ventilate the room well.

I know a woman whose cat has severe asthma because of this. She now spends a small fortune every month for medications. At the slightest stimulation, the cat will have an asthma attack and need to be rushed to the vet. She swears she will never spray again!

There are some herbal sprays and shampoos available from quality pet shops that are nonpoisonous. Some need to be used on a more regular basis according to your pet and the area you live in. There are even garlic tablets and sprays for your sweet companion.

You can rid your pet of fleas without resorting to life-threatening chemicals. Here are a few tips that work:

1. I add a crushed clove of real garlic to Fritzl’s food. Garlic naturally boosts the immune system thereby making your pet less attractive to fleas. It also produces a smell in the dog (in humans too) that fleas don't like. Garlic will prevent worms too.

Please note: It is inadvisable to give garlic to animals suffering from liver, gall and bile duct ailments until these ailments (where possible) are corrected. Please check with your vet.

2. A natural raw meaty bone diet renders a dog less liable to flea infestation. Again, this diet boosts the immune system.

3. Supplement with vitamins and minerals. A dog who is given a complete vitamin and mineral supplement is virtually flea-proof. I give Fritzl Chlorella or Blue Green Algae which are both excellent. You can find these products on the internet. Click here.

4. An aromatherapy combination of rosemary and eucalyptus oil in a carrier are superb bug repellents. Just about 4-5 drops each into a small (8 oz) spray bottle. Citronella works great too.

5. There are natural flea/tick collars using safe aromatherapy oils at a reputable pet store.

6. To remove flea larvae, sprinkle salt on the floor and carpet, sofas and chairs, and leave on for 30 minutes. Vacuum thoroughly.

7. A number of herbal shampoos are now available in shops or via the internet. Please read all the labels thoroughly.

8. I also recommend two Perelandra Center for Nature Research products: MBP Immune System Balancing Solution and the Lymphatic System Balancing Solution. Read more.... You can also contact their Customer Hotline.

Remember, your four legged angel needs your protection!
