Hi all pet lovers i have found diluted vinegar works really well,i spray the cats and the house ,spray where they sleep and when they are a bit drowsy spray the cats.i make sure the food bowls have plenty of biscuits in, so that when they and me have finished bouncing off the walls,them to run and me to catch,they have a treat, and i have a cuppa.
my vet said this was an old remedy,totally natural,and a little apple cider vinegar in the water bowl keep the worms at bay.
do the same for dogs.
give it a try ,its cheaper than vet products.
