If you have dogs or cats as pets here in South Africa this will be a very useful remedy that can help you out in many ways. Now that the summer is returning slowly it is time for ticks and fleas to infest in the warmer areas of the country.

Below is a very useful recipe that can be used to spray directly in your home and on your dogs or cats!

Flea & Tick Remedy

8 oz apple cider vinegar

4 oz warm water

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

Mix dry ingredients first. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet as the vinegar and the baking soda will have a slight reaction. Put this mixture into a spray bottle and spray pets down. Be careful not to get this in your pets' eyes.

Use Borax throughout the house, sprinkle it on the carpets and let sit for a few hours, then vacuum the carpet.

This should kill all the fleas and ticks in your home and on your pets.

Hope you have a lovely day!
