Fleas and ticks - very difficult to avoid

Fleas and ticks are very difficult to avoid, because there are usually people standing outside the house, and they are very resistant to pesticides. If you have a pet, wash with soap and warm water can help fully immerse (leaving his head out of the water, of course!) For five minutes to drown the fleas, as well wash your neck, head and ears (flea treated reaching the head because it is out of the water.) then dry it well and spray with an infusion of rosemary, citronella, or eucalyptus. To make the tea, you can use fresh or dried leaves, or not having access to the plant, you can add five drops of essential oil of any of these plants to a pint of warm water.

During flea season, hopes the house frequently and do not forget to wash your pet bed.

Mosquitos - Mosquito - installing insect screen

Apart from installing insect screen, you can use citronella candles for mosquitoes not anywhere near the area. For the skin, there are several types of natural repellents you can buy, if you want something very strong can use creams for muscle pain as Tiger Balm (Tiger Balm) whose main ingredients are camphor and menthol. Eye! Do not use these creams on the face or other sensitive areas. Always follow the product directions.

To prevent mosquito breeding, prevents water from pooling around your house. Remove the containers and plastic bags , tires, buckets and other surfaces that can be filled with water from rain or dew. Keep the things you need in a roof or put them upside down so they do not collect water, what is garbage to be thrown away or buried, if for some reason this is impossible, can pierce to drain the water.
