Tip of the Day: Repel Fleas from Your Pet
Filed under Pet
It happens every year. Fleas! To keep them from biting your pets dab a drop or two of lemon essential oil (such as lemon balm or lemongrass bought at the health foods store) on the back of your pet's neck and rump. These contain a chemical called linalool that is toxic to fleas but not to dogs, cats, or humans. No more scratching!
