Hello Friend,

Good Morning to you this Wednesday...

I recently finished a video on the most common external parasites ( Fleas, Lice and Ticks) and holistic options for control.

44,000 adverse reactions from this
------------------------------------------------

This was a report released last year, but it does re-inforce the NEED to look for alternatives, and be cautious in applying medication to your dog or cat.

MEDICATION can be dangerous.

Here is a section from the report.


The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is warning dog and cat owners about potential health risks to their animals from a variety of spot-on flea and tick medications.

Spot-on products generally are sold in tubes or vials and are applied to one or more areas on the body of the animal, such as in between the shoulders or in a stripe along the back.

More than 44,000 pet health-related incidents from spot-on treatments were reported last year to the EPA, ranging from mild skin irritations to death. As a result, the EPA recently announced it was intensifying its evaluation of these products.

The EPA investigation will center on incidents with spot-on treatments, sprays, collars and shampoos. “However, the majority of the potential incidents reported to EPA are related to flea and tick treatments with EPA-registered spot-on products,” the EPA announced.

Pesticide registrants are required by law to submit information to the EPA on adverse effects resulting from the use of any registered pesticide. EPA said seven products represent about 80 percent of all adverse incidents.

P.S. I advise that you DO NOT use these medications monthly- ONLY use them in severe infestations. Talk to your Veterinarian about doses, and be VERY cautious with cats.

Animals have died from overdoses of flea medication.

It's far better to be ON TOP of the parasites, before they become a BIG problem.

And then at least TRY some of the alternate options.
