I use garlic and it works great. I put garlic, one tablespoon of cooking oil and water in the blender and liquify it. Pour in a coffee can and use a paint brush and spread it all over the dogs. I take the left over and spread it around the kennels and inside the dog houses. No fleas, flys, ticks or mosquitos. Insects can smell better than dogs and even after we or the dogs can no longer smell it, it is still working. I got the idea from a very expensive product that was listed on the computer a couple of years ago and decided to make my own. I think the product was mosquito away or something like that. I will try to find it again and post it on here.

mr. gross. my experience with bio-spot was good. i read of dogs having
a reaction but it look to me that it was certain breeds, i didn't think
beagles were one of them. i now use the frontline spray which seems to
be doing a excellent job. the bio-spot seemed to expire or wash off the
hounds when run in rain or thick dew. so far the frontline spray seems
to stay on longer. i had no reaction with my hounds which i treat twelve
to fifteen at a time with the bio-spot. i will go back to it next year but i
think that you need to us a different product once in a while. good luck
with your research.

let honesty run through the veins of each and every judge at each and every trial at each and
every format.

Were are you getting your paramite dip from now? I have used it
and like it but the last time I went looking for it on the web it said
that it was no longer made. I'd like to get some.
Got 4 bottles last time. Hope they haven't quit...
