Fleas and
other bugs
*NEW- If you have fleas
everywhere in your house, a good way to get rid of them is to create a soap
water mixture. Place it below a light. The warmth seeking fleas will dive into
the mixture. After a day, you will see a bowl full of suicide fleas! (anon)
*NEW - I have the solution to getting rid of
fleas once and for all. Mix together 2 cups of borax powder (available at most
hardware stores) and 2 cups of salt. I mix it together in a coffee can and then
punch holes in the plastic top. Sprinkle it on your carpet and brush it in a
little with a broom. Use a flea comb to get the fleas off of your pet. One
application works for years. I have not had a flea on my pet for over ten years.
I used to work for a pest control company so you just received a "trade
secret" (Carolyn)
*NEW - There are a variety of natural ways to
prevent fleas from infesting your cat. If you feed your cat soft food, try
mixing some fresh minced garlic into the food. Also, you can put a small amount
of white vinegar into your pets drinking water. Also, one good way to
prevent fleas is to feed your cat a healthy all natural diet. (Chris W.)

works well enough, but over time the bottom edge of the drawer sides wears out
and the drawer starts to tip down.
