Products intended to treat cats and dogs for fleas and ticks
kill hundreds of pets each year and injure tens of thousands, said the
Environmental Protection Agency in a March 2010 statement. In a now
famous ABC News report released in 2008, traditional spot drop flea and
tick medicines were found to cause more than 44,000 severe reactions,
including seizures and 1,200 deaths.
There is no such thing as chemical flea "prevention" on an animal. Fleas are
killed when they bite pets for a blood meal. They die from the toxins systemically
wicked into and carried in the animal's bloodstream.
Due to widespread controversy over traditional flea and tick control methods, cedar
oil insecticides have gained increasing popularity and respect in the veterinary and
organic farming communities. In 2006, at the request of the U.S. Army, a team of
world renowned organic scientists expanded upon traditional cedar oil formulations
by introducing a quartz rock carrier to deliver a lethal dose of substance at the
microscopic level. This nano-sized delivery system closes the breathing pores of
pheromone driven insects on contact and creates a lasting barrier that discourages
new insects from latching onto treated animals.
At the forefront of the cedar oil movement is a company based in the heart of Texas
and marketed at http://Bugshateit.com Their product is endorsed by Animal Wellness
Magazine and recognized by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as the number one
biological insect control formula, proven superior to chemical counterparts. The
formula is strong enough to battle crop pests on commercial farms yet safe enough to
treat neighborhood yards for mosquitoes and venomous snakes. Last year alone, one of
the most prominent pest control companies in the United States ordered 5,000 gallons
of the product.
Since a flea problem in the home signifies a flea problem in the yard, the most
effective treatment plans blend indoor and outdoor protection methods. If you live
on a wooded lot, or if your geographic location is particularly hot and moist,
outdoor treatment is not just important but essential. In the past, cedar oil
formulations were primarily sold in tiny, overpriced units at pet stores and
veterinary clinics. They are now available in concentrates that make eight gallons
to the quart. Outdoor treatments result in a dramatic reduction in insect
populations across the board, including mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, lice, mites,
chiggers and various crop pests. Cedar oil will not contaminate ground water or
pollute the environment.
Indoor cedar oil fogging techniques are particularly effective in the control of
fleas, bedbugs, ants and cockroaches. The dry, hazy mist penetrates unseen cracks
and crevices in a way that traditional spraying methods can't duplicate. Fogging
machines are exceptionally useful to those who live in apartment buildings where
repeat infestations are common. The amount of money saved on repeat visits from
exterminators can be astronomical.
