Make Your Own Flea Deterrent
Herbal Flea Powder
*This recipe and more flea deterrent, repellants and soaps/shampoos available in our Pet Recipe Cookbook
Use these herbs in powder form
-
Eucalyptus
-
Rosemary
-
Fennel
-
Yellow Dock
-
Wormwood
-
Rue
Using equal amounts of each herb, combine them and mix well.
Place herb mixture in a shaker.
Apply sparingly to your dog while brushing their fur backward with a brush or your hand. Your goal is to get the powder into the base of the hairs especially on their neck, their back and their tummy area.
Because fleas don’t like this rub it is best to use this outdoors and to leave the dog out for a little while as fleas will be jumping off of them to get away from the smell.
For severe infestations use twice a week.
