Two days later, Cunningham and numerous other tenants in Emerald Street South complex, near Hunter Street East, were served with notice they will be evicted if they don’t help get rid of the pest problem. “

DIY Flea Control

What can be done about fleas? (Photo Credits)

When a dog is plagued with fleas, its health and that of his humans get endangered.

Effective over-the-counter Flea control solutions though can come with a high cost.

Living traditionally shared a recipe of an all-natural anti-flea spray.

“Are You Poisoning Your Pet with Toxic Flea and Tick Products?  Commercial pest control products l trigger adverse reactions in dogs and cats, causing premature death.  The Natural Resources Defense Council released a report called Poisons on Pets: Health Hazards from Flea and Tick Products   which demonstrated a link between chemicals commonly used in flea and tick products and serious health problems in both people and pets. Unfortunately, there is no chemical based pest control product that is without the potential for side effects.”

Get the recipe here.

All Natural

Dogipedia also shared several natural solutions to rid dogs of fleas. San Diego, California

One of the most frustrating situations to deal with is when your dog get “infested” with fleas – in no time your entire house will get infected. So it’s imperative that dog owners know exactly what to do to prevent and stop fleas right away before hell breaks loose (further).  Sometimes it may not be the case of your dog’s skin having fleas developing on, it could also be that your dog has picked up the fleas from other doggie friends during their interaction. It could also be possible that fleas happened to already be in your household rather than on your dog and your dog just happens to be a victim as well.”

Delicious and Chemical-free

Farmer’s Almanac also shared a recipe of this time an anti-flea dog treat that pests cannot resist.

Roll dough onto floured surface to about ¼ inch thick. Use knife to cut dough into squares, or use cookie cutters to make special shapes. Place cut dough onto large, ungreased baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes, or until edges are brown. Allow to cool 2 hours, then store in plastic bags or airtight containers.”

Termite Trivia

Termite 101

Termites

They are more than just pests that destroy wood. (Photo Credits) 

Termites can sometimes be plainly seen as wood-eating pests that get the better of structures.

But these insects are more than that.

There is a whole lot to know and find out about termites.

For instance, it is not general knowledge that termites could be an ingredient to Hot Sauce as shared by the website Food Beast.

“In Kumarakapay, villagers make a special hot sauce they call kumache. While the base of kumache is made from yucca and hot peppers, what makes it special is the finishing ingredient of red ants and termites. Before finishing the sauce, natives go out and break up ant hills to harvest the insects by hand so that they’re as fresh as possible. The villagers have been making the special hot sauce for years, selling it to tourists looking to try something new and bold. However, the production of kumache is very limited, because yucca too expensive to harvest.”

Same Reputation

In India termites have the same bad reputation. Carlsbad, Ca    

Time for instance published an article about Termites destroying India’s government records.

“Anup Surendranath, the professor at the Indian capital’s National Law University spearheading the research project, said that prisons across India responded to record requests by claiming many documents had been “lost or destroyed by termites.” Among the missing files are the 2001 mercy pleas of four men convicted in the 1992 Bara Massacre, a mass murder carried out by Maoist insurgents in the Eastern Indian state of Bihar.”

Termite 101

Pestworld also gave a closer glimpse at termites as it published little known information on this specie.

“Colonies of termites are difficult to detect because most species build their colonies underground and move through subterranean tunnels. However, there are some species such as Conehead termites, found in Florida, that forage over top of the ground, similar to ants. This allows these termites to spread easily and quickly if left unchecked.”

Organic Pesticides is one of the safest and easiest ways to get rid of home garden pests.

Aside from it being a more affordable, it can even be made at home.

Purposefully Simple shared a recipe of Homemade Garlic Pepper Spray which can be used on garden pests.

“When the goop has sat for long enough strain it so that you only have the juice left. I used a piece of cotton fabric to squeeze the juice out of the goop and a funnel to get the juice in the spray bottle. I also covered my hands in plastic sandwich bags because I didn’t have any gloves. It worked but I definitely recommend gloves if you can get ’em and I definitely DON’T recommend using your bare hands.”

Get the ingredients and procedure here.

Homemade and Organic

Homesteading Freedom also shared four recipes that households may choose from. Ace1 Pest Control

Check out the recipes here.

Affordable and Effective

DIY Gardening and Better Living also posted homemade organic pesticide recipes.
