The best way to protect your cats and dogs from fleas is to impregnate their fabric collar. Pets cannot reach and lick their necks; therefore, there is no danger for them to get sick after tasting a mixture of essential oils. Moisten the fabric collar in a mixture of wine vinegar and essential oils and put it in a plastic bag for 24 hours in order for the active substances to soak into the fabric. Use thus impregnated collar for 2-3 weeks.

Pets may not tolerate some of the scents. If you noticed your pet sneezing or watering eyes, remove the collar immediately.

Mixture for the collar:

Mixture 1:

1 tablespoon of wine vinegar;

5 drops of cedar essential oil;

5 drops of eucalyptus essential oil;

5 drops of lavender essential oil;

Flea repellent:

10 ml of fatty oil,

10 drops of lavender oil;

5 drops of cedar oil;

Apply a small amount on problem areas.
