Greetings,
I hope everyone is enjoying June, the sun and the warmer weather. This e-letter is dedicated to dealing with the pests that like to bug us during the summer - fleas, ticks, and other flying creatures.
I will not go into the pros and cons of using prescription medication to prevent fleas and ticks for your pets. Please discuss this with your veterinarian and make your own decision. Instead, I would like to share a few natural solutions to help keep those pests at bay and a few remedies for bites, stings and poisonous plant rashes.
Please note that natural remedies may not always be strong enough to repel bugs, depending on your location and the type of insect. If you or your pet has a bite, rash or other skin irritation that does not heal within a day or two, please contact your doctor or veterinarian.
Wishing all a very peaceful June,
Thank you,
jeanie mossa MS. L.Ac.
