Natural Bug Lawn Spray

One way to help our pets is to not use chemicals. One reason why people use chemicals is to help control pests like mosquitoes.

A friend told me of a method to help control pests using a natural garlic water spray method.

The garlic oil doesn't just help repel mosquitoes, but fleas, ticks and other unwanted pests.

Essentially, you can either buy garlic oil concentrates in many lawn and garden stores of you can make it yourself. It's really simple to make.

To make your own garlic oil spray, simply crush a handful of garlic cloves and soak them in 4 liters (1 gallon) of water for 24 hours. Next, remove the garlic pieces and then strain any remaining garlic from the water. If there are pieces left in the water, then obviously those pieces will clog your sprayer. Use your new garlic oil water and spray your property.

Do not spray flowering plant because the smell will deter bees from going to them.

You may notice a strong garlic smell for a few days but then it will begin to go away. While you will no longer be able to smell the garlic, the pests can. This natural spray will be effective for approximately 2 to 4 weeks. So I would suggest spraying again every 3 weeks.

My 12 year old male cat, Lynx, was diagnosed with F.I.V., and feline AIDS several years ago. I used to spend a lot of time worrying and money on veterinary bills. When a friend of mine suggested raw foods, I thought it was a terrific idea. It made perfect sense to feed animals that are domesticated a more natural diet. So I immediately started Lynx on the program. Within weeks I started to notice differences in his looks, his energy, and even his temperament. Even my friends noticed the difference in him and want to know my secret. I always tell them about you. Thanks again Jesse for your advice, encouragement, and excellent service.

I'm Totally Sold On The Raw Meat Diet

2010-01-27

I'm totally sold on the raw diet in every way — health wise, time wise, even money wise — it is less than I was spending on wellness canned food.

And if it wasn't for all your information — your book — your website — your informative emails I would feel a bit more lost, but I don't because of everything you have provided. You have made me feel more confident about everything.

Thanks again for everything and I'll keep you posted! :)

Rocky's Comeback

2008-09-14

I took on a dog that was very, very skinny, extremely stressed, and sick with a major cold and diarrhea caused by an intestinal parasite that he picked up at an overcrowded animal shelter. That was August 22, 2008. He was only the second dog I've had, and I didn't feel all that equipped to handle him (I'm still learning!).

I was scared to death he was going to die on my watch. But I immediately ditched all commercially prepared food and started feeding him by hand, scrambled eggs, rice, and cheese. I started doing research and found your book, which I enjoyed and printed. I've employed its recipes (for the most part — I still have a cultural need to just sear the meat before serving, still mostly raw, and I still include rice), but the results have been phenomenal. I bought a $20 food chopper at Wal–Mart to chop the vegetables and the organ meats, and for most things it works just fine. I use cheese as training treats. And this was while he was on medication, which as we all know can hinder weight gain.

Now he's a happy bundle of energy, more than I can handle, actually. We go out for long, energetic walks and today I bought my first set of running shoes in over 15 years. We may wind up saving each other here!

Because of his poor health, I took pictures of him every day to examine his progress in detail to make sure I could tell for sure whether he was improving or getting worse. They wound up being great before and after testimonials for the power of healthy food for your dog. These pictures are only 10 days apart! Except for the last, which is 3 weeks from the first, I think. I'm allowing him to stay lean and energetic, and we're working on building up muscle.

Thank you for your very helpful website – Nancy
