Get Rid Of Fleas The Way To Do It

Summer is here and so are the Fleas! 

Amid the joy of seeing the arrival of Summer, your headache of having to deal with fleas is really not something that you would look forward to.

Many people have deemed flea control as an uphill task and some has even thought that it is simply impossible to get rid of fleas or even to keep them under a tolerable level. 

Is that really true? Well, not if you follow what I would call an integrated plan to flea control.

The reason why many people failed in their attempts is that they just simply do not understand the whole life cycle of the fleas. It's not only fleas that you are dealing with. You have to be aware that killing off the adult fleas would not solve your problem. You have to deal with the problem as a whole and that means you have to deal with the eggs, the larva and the pupae from which the fleas are developed. Many people do not realize this and hence are complaining that is just a “mission impossible”.

Your choice of a flea-control product also plays an important role. Choose the wrong product and it may either harm your pets or that it’s not effective at all. There are many anti-flea products available in the market but your choice is dependable on which stage of the life cycle of the flea you are dealing with. Some are active only against adult fleas and not effective in killing off eggs, larvae, etc. 

Another reason why many people failed in their attempts in controlling fleas is that they are focus only on their pets. They see fleas on their pets and quite reasonably would assume that the problem lies in their pets. Aggressively applying one after another anti-flea product on their pets. However, little did they know that there are thousands more around the environment waiting to jump back onto the poor dog or cat for food. This is why treating or taking care of the surrounding environment is just as important in your war against these pests. 

An Integrated plan in flea control involved dealing with the fleas in totality. 



Use the right products and method 

Treat your pets 

Treat your house, the surrounding environment, gardens, and yards.

Love is in the air

Well, here we are in February and many people are celebrating St. Valentines. It is a good time to think about love and relationships to put a bit of warmth in our lives after a long winter. Today, I would like to look at what love is. The English language only has one word for love and it is used interchangeably for almost everything. We can say I love my husband and I love Chocolate. Both are using the same word and it is only by the context that we can ascertain the difference. The Greeks, on the other hand, have four different words to describe love. Each word gives a different nuance to the word that helps us understand more fully what is being spoken of. I want to look with you at the four Greek words for love. These are: 1) Eros 2) Storge 3) Philia 4) Agape Eros: The first type of love we are all familiar with. Our English word Erotica is derived from this word. Sadly, some people never get passed this type of love and base their relationships purely on sexual attraction. This

GM Plans to keep Saab Hummer

General Motors is going through a cataclysmic change, one that will certainly pull the company out of its current financial plight or result in bankruptcy, even the possible dissolution of the company. In a quest to right the listing ship, the company is divesting itself of several brands including its share of Isuzu, Fuji Heavy Industries [Subaru], and others. As far as its wholly-owned brands, speculation has been rife that one, two, maybe even three brands might be discontinued or sold. Two of the most talked-about makes for possible divestment are Hummer – the niche military-style SUV brand – and Saab – the Swedish automaker. Although both brands are currently fairly weak, GM has maintained that the two makes will not only survive but receive fresh product and backing. Let’s take a look at two of GM’s most vulnerable brands and what the company may have in store for each one. Saab — Saab enthusiasts have been highly disappointed ever since General Motors snapped up the Swedish aut
