Best not to use this on your cat if they groom excessively. Can be used cautiously. Only a light mist, spread it around with your hands, and then no more than once/week.
Veterinary Secrets I thought aloe was poison with dogs?
What about pennyroyal...I've used your formula WITH pennyroyal...most excellent flea spray.
Thia Love what is pennyroyal??
I'm glad you mentioned this. I need help for my cats. I can't seem to get rid of these things. I've used top spit. Collars spray for the House. Vacuum like crazy. I bath them in dawn which is a total nightmare. What else can I do?? I need a spray that I can use on them. I comb but I can't get their legs. They won't let me even look on their legs. These things just keep coming back.

4 tbs witch hazel
4 tbs aloe Vera juice
10 drops lavender essential oil
10 drops lemon essential oil
20 drops cedarwood essential oil
Shake and spray
Thank you â€
Thanks đ
I'm going to mix up some of this and pray that it really works. My grandson is a tick magnet.
Do you add water to it? How many bottles can you make with the kittle essential bottles?
Youngs Living Essential Oils
hey! Quick tip - add the essential oils to the final bottle instead of the measuring cup because when you add to the measuring cup the essential oil spreads across the surface sticking to the sides of the measuring cup as you pour its into the spray bottle.
hey everyone iv e been using this recipe since the day he posted this video and I have not had any fleas! I comb my dogs nightly and no fleas they are also allergic to fleas so they scratch intensely. I have them sleep on white sheets and in the morning I check the sheet for flea dirt I spray with water bottle and if it turns to blood then its flea dirt. So I have not had any fleas since using this recipe! I also feed raw and freeze dried and I also home make meals for my dogs and use standard process immune booster and other supplements as well! NO DRUGS OR PESTICIDES
Thanks for the feedback! Glad it helped!
thank you for sharing friend!
Am getting. A dog in a week, what foods are you feeding yours?
@minarose ~ Will you please share us your recipe for dog food? I make my dogs' food also, and I'm willing to finer tune my recipe...many thanks and approval! đŸđ
@@dbirdeycapozzi9807 hi! My vet gave me a list of foods and how to decide if my dog needs to be eating cooling foods or warming foods. What breeds mix are your dogs and can you tell if they run cold or hot ex: golden retrievers run hot and need cooling foods always hot and panting. Some dogs are skinny and always shaking and cold. So you have to look at what ailments your dog has any health problems?
This stuff works immediately !!! Sprayed it on my tick infested pup Picked off a few while I was spraying and they died within minutes
So it actually killed tie fleas. I thought it was just a repellent.
Will give it a try.
I love when actual doctors are open to natural/ holistic remedies. Iâm in healthcare and they are always trying to push big pharma drugs on us
The pharma's basically own all vets and if they question them then they are out on their ears same with regular Doctors they are forbidden to ever recommend ANY natural product
Beverly Vinson hmmm yea he seemed pushy but although I love holistic I give my dog that flea chew monthly. That thing is life lol
Vegan Vocalist umnnnnn I donât see HOW .. doctors donât HAVE to recommend anything.. clinics are individually owned .. those reps suck up to our doctors to get them to push their product so that they can charge pts ins. Make money lol
Yes!!!!!!đ
God bless..
Thanks for the video
We used to have a flea issue and then I started rubbing down my fur babies with coconut oil after the bath and my dogs has never had fleas since . Itâs also great to to use to pick fleas off the dog since the oil immobilizes the flea. Coconut oil also relieves hot spots . Helpful hit
Welcome
Can it be used on cats?
@@carlyandfriends1547 yes it can. Just takes a few washes to get it out.
Thank you..will try
I have a Pom and she has just contracted what looks like fleas. I shall have to try this method. Many thanks. Just waiting for flea and tick shampoo to arrive, but whilst waiting I really need to get this matter resolved.
This mixture is over the Top! Excellent, I am returning to inform everyone it WORKS: Witch hazel, aloe gel, lemon essential oil, lavender, and cedarwood mixed together works. And, it's calming and smells good. Thank you Doctor so much for caring. My doggie isn't suffering anymore.
I'm happy to hear it worksâ€
Did you use aloe Vera juice like he recommended in the video or did you actually use aloe gel?
Thanks for the testimonial update, this is what I need to hear! đ Will give it a try.
This is what i wanted hear, that it works! I just watched his newest video on this, and just happened across this one. The new video he made only has lemon, thyme and ACV. The problem is that I never see comments saying whether it works or not.
I knew an airdale dog who lived at a lumber yard and he would always lay onto of the stacked up cedarwood, I guess he knew cedarwood keeps bugs away. Animals are so smart!
I just made my second batch of this today. It works great for my pup. And, we're in East Texas. I apply it twice a week. Thank you for all the great information!
Tabitha i live in OK and i tried what this dr said, but be careful tick and fleas in our area are deadly. Iâm loosing my dog because i tried his recipes for a couple months. I felt i needed to let u know.
@@maryamsalamat7925 are you saying this spray didnât work? I have no idea what to do about the tick situation in our area. Iâm constantly finding ticks on our dogs. I donât know what to do
Hi, where do you buy these ingredients? Thanks.
@@jaimeann9505 apple cider vinegar in a spray bottle, diluted a bit with water. Fleas & ticks hate the stuff, mosquitoes too. White vinegar might work too, Iâm not sure.
@@simplemind872 amazon
I make my own repellent by slicing a couple lemons thinly, cover with water, add lavender, thyme or rosemary herbs (or any combo). Then boil and cook lightly for 10 minutes. Then seep overnight. I strain in morning and then add some raw apple cider vinegar. This works great!!!
Nice
Is this for cats or dogs? I have cats.
@frank&hotlips I have only used this for dogs so I don't know.
@Kernica1 I don't. I just barely cover the lemons with water. I probably add a few tablespoons of ACV.
can you be so kind of giving us the amount of herbs to add plus amount of ACV to use?
I vacuumed, sprayed my dog and his environs, (including outside...) and got better results than from a visit to the vet for the shot and pills. Thank-you, so much, Dr!! It WORKS, is SAFE, is EASY to make, and AFFORDABLE!!
Good to hear, I'm glad it worked so well for you:)
Karen, I just saw your post. If your dog like the vacuum cleaner, I vacuum Foxie and her long hair 2 -3 times a day, she loves it.
@@foxiedogitchypaws7141 My dog bites at vacuums and freaks out when they try to steal his tongue.
@@foxiedogitchypaws7141 He did chew the power cord in half on one vacuum.
@@foxiedogitchypaws7141 We had a Collie/Shepherd mix and she tried to EAT the vacuum LOL. Glad your furbaby is good with it!
You are such a kind hearted person, Dr. Jones, to give us all of this important info for free. I'm serious. Have been looking for natural flea and tick ingredients ever since the C, where I decided I'm done with every time I go to the vet it costs more than when I use to go to the Dr. The last time I went to the Dr. was 2016. I remember growing up, only in a getting hit by a car emergency did we really take our dog and other pets to the vet. It's amazing how they all survived living long freedom filled lives.
LOVE THE WAY HIS DOG IS LOOKING AT WHAT HES DOING
I love how attentive the dog was in listening to you. Until he got bored and yawned. But maybe that was the lavender relaxing him. đ
My dogs yawn as an expression. It seems to mean that everything is fine, my yawn takes care of it, somehow.
Don't ask me how yawning is a cure for or covers over problems for my dogs, but it seems this is how they use their expressive yawns.

Isnât it awesome how well we know our dogs? They are so intelligent and loving. Such an important part of our family.
@@sweetds1 I thank God so much for dogs. I had a rough childhood and dogs were always there for me.
I cannot understand how someone can't believe in God when they have known the love and devotion of a dog. Love is so obviously built right into them. They have nothing to prove, and yet they unconditionally love us. They are one of God's greatest expressions of His love for us. Just to think about my dogs warms my heart!
Kathleen Norton
I couldnât agree more. Animals and children are true blessings in our lives and how anyone could ever be mean to or hurt either is just criminal. Thanks for your positive comments. Bless you and your pooch. đâ€ïž
@@sweetds1 Thank you, and God bless you and your family, and of course including your pets!
This sounds like itâs OK for people, too! Ticks are plentiful where I live and this might be a great natural option
Appreciate, but I always go for the simplest. Have used highly diluted Braggs vinegar for a long time and works great. I live in the woods, & have many critters to deal with. Thanks for posting helpful alternatives.
How do you apply it for dogs, do I have to mix it with other things?
@@cirosochyesposito9443 There are probably instructions if you Google or ask a vet. What works for me is to put a tiny bit in their morning water (less than 1/2 tsp,) and maybe 1:8 dilution in a spray bottle (give or take, it doesnât have to be very strong) and wipe them down with it at night. They actually like it because Iâve done this since they were puppies. So far weâve had zero ticks even try to bite, and no other critters around either.
@@laurachin6394 thanks so much! I have found one big tick on my dog no fleas so far đ so I was searching for natural remedies to avoid any chemicals as possible. He just had surgery on his rear left leg due to broken tendons, 10 days ago and thatâs the main reason Iâm trying to avoid anything from his vet or hazard remedies for fleas & ticks. I really appreciate it!
@@cirosochyesposito9443 You are so welcome! Praying your doggo heals quickly đ
Thatâs also a great idea, though I do think mixing EOâs and witch hazel is simple .
I use a version of this for mosquitos for people. Lavender, cedarwood & lemon grass with witch hazel & aloe juice. I use them as a spray & have to reapply about every 2-3 hrs. Makes perfect sense that itâll work for our fur babies
Howâs it smell all together? Individually, I cannot stand the smell of lemongrass (super strong) or cedar wood (urine smell), but I do like lavender.
whats the self life?
@@melindamercier6811 it just đ. Not lemongrass.
How long do u let it stay on the dog before washing it off.
Listen to this man I haven't tried this specific combination but used spray containing most of these things I hate sprays and am asthmatic and sensitive to smells but when your knee deep in fleas and your dog and cat are ate up as well smells get less important when compared to say gasoline because a flea infestation will have you contemplating arson
Several people have made comments about the aloe vera going bad if it's not refrigerated or if it's not used within a day or two blah blah blah first of all ,witch hazel contains alcohol and the essential oils also help in keeping the aloe vera juice from spoiling. Washing hands thoroughly and minimizing contact what's the ingredients plays a large part in keeping this solution from being contaminated.
Thayers witch hazel does not contain alcoholic
mark Goodwin â
@@markgoodwin183 okay then ,so since that brand of witch-hazel contains no alcohol, let's just all get negged out and just go along with the theory that it's going to ferment and go bad excetera excetera and of course the essential oils don't have any antibacterial or preservative properties either, would that be correct? So according to you, it WILL spoil? So , if that's what you want to believe and it makes you feel better ; then you win !You win ! Isn't that a terrific feeling ? I hope your life gets better now .

40 drops essential oils : lav.- 10 drops, lem. - 10 drops, cedar wood oil - 20 drops
1/4 aka 4 TBS witch hazel ditto for Aloe Vera juice.
Can also apply where the pups not as likely to lick.
I would not do that as it may burn that sensitive area
I hope you know even though this is 4 years old I cherish each and every one of your videos! Truly are one of a kind.
I love how well behaved your dog is during the entire time. He is so adorable! Thanks for sharing this recipe for dog spray :-)

Iâve used catnip tea with a few drops of citrus essential oil with good effect on myself with Florida mosquitoes for my evening walk. It smells pleasant and I donât feel a need to shower it off like with the deet repellants.
Thanks for the channel đ„°đđ„°
Thanks
Good infođđœ... did cats follow you home...lol. My pit love cats....lol
I planted cat nip for my cats this year, just from cheapo seeds from walmart, and it's grown like crazy -- I have cats, so I'm not sure about the citrus oil, but I'm going to use it on myself because I live in Richmond, VA and we have the no-seeums starting around 4 PM and I usually work in my garden around 7 PM due to the heat -- and the only way you can stay out there is to , exactly as you stated, douse yourself in spray, then literally scrub your skin in the shower afterward, so I'm definitely going to try this -- thanks so much for posting !!!
@@hippiejohn3810, I was going to say the same thing!! đđđ
That doggy is so chill. đ I can't get enough of this channel! I'm a dog groomer and I'm all about natural remedies for my clients!
Thanks Lauren
Thank you Dr Jones! So glad there is a safe and effective flea repellent not loaded with dangerous chemicals. â€
Thanks for sharing. As a teacher of Aromatherapy I would recommend less drops, for a spray - not more as 1 %. Instead Lemon, we use Lemongrass or Citronella or Rose Geranium. Plus Neemoil and for the basis we use hydrosols (without alcohol) of Cistus ladaniferus, Witch Hazel, and 10 ml Black Cumin oil (fatty oil) and Coconut oil. If you have a good spray nozzle, it will work. đșđșđșFor example: 5 gtt Lavender, 5 gtt Citronella, 5 gtt Cedarwood or Stone Pine, 5 gtt Neemoil, in 60 ml Cistushydrosol, 20 ml Witch Hazel hydrosol, 10 ml Aloe Vera oil, 9 ml Black Cumin Seed oil. Many greetings from Germanyđșđșđș
Thank you @marvona. Do we need to used all the oil you mentioned or one of those is enough? Could this be used effectively for both humans and dogs ?
You could use one essential oil only. Yes!
Neem oil is toxic to dogs if ingested
I will say, I tested out the effects of essential oils on all the tics I pulled off my dog.
They all killed the ticks, but it took hours
I used lavender on one tick
Eucalyptus on the next,
Tea tree oil,
Lavender
Peppermint
Lemongrass
The ticks hated it and eventually died. I have the ticks in a jar, and they've been alive for a three weeks without food or water. These things are fucking crazy.. mus be straight from hell
Why would you keep them in a jar dude
When you pick off ticks... Put them in alcohol... That kills them!đ·đ·đ·đ·
s. elizabeth Maybe their being straight from hell is the reason why tradition is to burn them. đĄ
@@jeffsmith6187 because I pulled them off my dog and they were in ziplock bags and I put them in a jar to secure it do they couldn't get out. I was going to kill them all, but then I'd have to open up the bags and I didnt want to do that, so I figured I'd just wait for them to die. But they won't die. I'm sure eventually they will
They can live for like years or months without a host . Crazy creepy and disgusting things !
I donât feed my pets insecticide! Iâm aware of heartworms, etc. however I treat parasites with natural remedies. It works! Thank you SO MUCH for your videos. They are a huge help caring for our animals. đ Brightest Blessings đ«đ
@@Kernica1 over vaccinated animals get heartworms. My dogs have titters done. If you vaccinate your dog twice in the first year, that vaccine is usually good for 5 years. If your dogs have heartworms, use calf wormer.
@@rosewood9839what is calf wormer and how do you vaccinate
What natural remedies you use
@@rosewood9839are you talking about Ivermectin?
You crack me up. It's too bad you're not still practicing, but I'm sure you're glad to be done with it all. Thanks for all you teach us.
Thank you for this! It's nice to get a natural option from an actual vet. My dog had tremors for a few days after using the conventional flea medicine so I am scared to give it to her again. I would hate to be causing damage to her every single month with the flea medicine.
You are so AWESOME! I work as a fulltime rescuer with many vets and shelters. I have seen countless dogs and cats poisoned and having seizures from otc flea n tick collars, sprays, dab ons and powders. I hope people listen and go natural. Your spray rocks and dogs smell wonderful!!!!
Diatemaceous earth in doors and yard will help prevent or kill any bugs that could affect your pets. Still use heartworm PLEASE.
Diatemaceus earth must be used with responsability since it kills thicks and kills honey bee too and these last ones are polinators for our food. Just be cautious please.
@@patriciaacb What's a thicks? Thanks
I'm going to stop using vet medication for fleas and ticks, and use an essential oil mixture instead. But, I still need heartworm protection. The pill I was giving my dog protected against fleas, ticks, heartworm, and internal parasites. What is a safe heartworm treatment please?
@@EllieLove21 , yes I need to know too. A safe heart worm medicine or remedy.
@@flowerchild777 ticks
I also use rosemary and lemon juice in water around my clothes, bedding, dirty laundry, washing floors, dog area, and scent free fabric softener sheets or liquid. This helps to deter bugs. Also whole bayleaf in closets, cupboards, or problem areas really works. Can add it to rosemary and lemon for double potency. Helps deter mosquitoes too! Also deet free mosquitoe spray works great! My dog loves it and the smell!
Can u give me a recipe you use ( how many drops of each etc)
@@annesta7748 small travel spray of water, about 3-6 drops of lemongrass oil or lemon juice, one string of rosemary leaves. Let it sit for a day to absorb the strength of rosemary. Very simple. U could even use a jam jar and double the amount.
Tula is a trooper, she has the shiniest coat ...
This is worked for my dog . Fast . And I was having a hard time finding something better than a flea collar that I don't like. Thank you so much.
Hi, how often do you use the spray on your dog?
Thank you so much for all of your hard work , research, and love for our sweet fur babies! Your knowledge and free book is as much a blessing as yourself, Doc!
Hello Dr. Jones, I really want to thank you for your suggestion on the organic, and healthy approach to fleas and ticks on our pets. Additionally, I wanted to share my experience with your suggestion. I bought all the ingredients you suggested to repel fleas on my dog and cat. However, I forgot that bees can respond to the pheromones. I soaked my melanois female dog before taking her out to the back yard to do her business. In the process, unbeknownst to me, I locked myself out. So when coming back inside the house the bees reacted intensely. Once my son opened the door, we came in with a few bees on us. One stung me on the neck, one them got on my kitten, a few were on my hair, one stung my son, but thankfully, the pets suffered no harm. So we have to be careful if we are outdoors close to honey bees as some essential oil scent can trigger bees to react.
I do believe that your recipe has soothed my dog's skin, and she likes it. Hopefully others would not have to go through what I went through, especially if you are near honey bees. Another thing that works really fast is a flea comb. Thank you! Sonja in Socal.
Grandma traditions never die . Coconut oil on your pet all natural healer & repelant . Flees die in oil . Bits heal faster with coconut oil. Rip GRANDMA THE VAX THREW GRADMA UNDER THE BUS . HER TRADITIONS NEVER DIE
Yep I use it on my babies đ maybe that's why I never had a flea issue
@@tiffanybarnes3831how and where do you apply the coconut oil?
I've used coconut oil on my dog, generously, as a flea natural treatment on more vulnerable areas like the neck, loin, butt area and tail. I still saw fleas crawling on her oily skin, alive and well. Very disappointed.
Sorry about your loss.
â@tiffanybarnes3831 how much coconut oil do you apply? How often and where at on the dog?
Thanks, I need to definitely find natural alternatives for my dogđ„șđâ€ïž
I just found your channel! I am a person who prefers a holistic approach over commercial products. I just rescued a dog named Lucky--first time pet owner. I just happened to stumbled across this video and just so happens Lucky is a smaller version of your baby! Thank you for posting
Great option for my dog - we live in the desert and don't have fleas / ticks; but when I travel to California, it's nice to have an option that isn't toxic - thank you!
Start with 16 oz spray bottle.
2 caps Dr Bronners peppermint soap
2 caps Tea Tree oil.
Fill with water.
Fleas, ticks and mosquitos avoid us. I use it on me(im the mosquito/flea bait)and Sadie, on her paws after parks
That is another option
sadly i got my son's dog back when he died suddenly a year ago and he is allergic to tea tree oil, flea products, corn and wheat so i have to be very careful what i use. at the moment i use vinegar and dish soap or ppl shampoo for him for bath and we haven't gotten fleas in a few years. if we do i bath them every 2-3 days to kill them and keep egg laying to a minimum, plus put diatomaceous earth all over the floor of my bedroom where i keep them while battling the fleas. they go out to pee and straight back into my room. jthe earth kills fleas and eggs that fall on floor. then i vacuum daily where they walk and usually within 14 days the fleas are dead. it usually is late aug/sept/oct i get them here in canada and i also find i have wood heat so if i still have a few when oct comes and its time for heat i run the wood furnace good and hot for several days making the humidity very low and it kills them off. they can't live at less than 50 % humidity if u can keep it down for 48 hrs. this can be challenging if u have an HVAC system as all newer houses do by law here because the system keeps bringing in fresh air which has moisture in it. that happens in my house so if needed i run my dehumidifier in the basement to keep the humidity really low. i've only had them once in the last 5 yrs and that was because a relative brought dogs over with fleas after telling me they didn't have any. i live in the country in sand so i have to really watch out for them.
Tea tree oil is suppose to be toxic to dogs
I read that peppermint & tea tree oils are toxic to dogs.
â@shelleyg1836 I was under the impression that tea tree oil is highly toxic for pets, so be careful about putting it where they can lick/chew themselves. And I learned the hard way that diatomaceous earth can affect their breathing (by dehydrating the lungs). I used it just once on my dog, being careful to keep it out of her face, and she started rasping within hours.
I love that the TICK FIGHTER SPRAY is made from natural ingredients. Itâs safe for my pet and works wonders!
Thank you Dr.!!! So appreciate you sharing your knowledge!! Loving and caring for animals is so rewarding!!
Lemongrass Oil and/or Citronella Oil would be good additives to this too. If you can find it, Geranium Oil is good too. It repels ticks.
I love how there is such concern about essential oils and their dangers - but these same people don't seem to think twice about putting Organophosphate nerve agents on their dogs.
True ! Its been years since I got my dogs shots. Years ago my daughter took a dog to 4H so he had to get shots. Animals live a long life with out shots, flea collars or that poison oil or tablet. Her dog 4H only lived ten years. My dogs no poison live eighteen to twenty years. Dangerous oils ? Haha ! God bless simple is best !
Megan Langreck you need to be concerned with whatever you put on your dog or cat - just b/c itâs natural doesnât make it safe for your pet.
Agree. Essential oils, especially rosemary, can also trigger seizures in some dogs. They are definitely better than strong pesticides disguised as âflea medicationâ but still need to be cautious with them.
Great natural recipe... Thank you!
1/4 cup, 60 ml, or 4 tablespoons of Witch hazel (Thayers)
1/4 cup of Aloe Vera juice (Lily of the Desert-whole leaf)
10 drops Lavender essential oil
10 drops of Lemon essential oil
20 drops of Cedarwood essential oil
Mix together in bowl.
Pour into spray bottle.
Shake well before use.
Cover pets eyes and nose with hand while spraying on fur.
Rub into coat. Repeat as needed.
Thank you! Now I can delete the 16 screenshots I took đâ€đ€
Elizabeth McFarland Do I spray them every day before they go out?
If i don't have cedar oil can i use something else ? Suggestions please
@@vanessahon , just my opinion but I'm going to spray them twice a week. Although if I smell my dogs fur and the essential oil smell is gone I'll spray more than twice a week. I've been debating and going back and forth on what to use. We have a 1 year old goldendoodle that has never had anything put on him so we want to not expose him to those store bought toxic chemicals. I've looked into diatomaceous earth as well but that doesn't seem feasible or safe in case of inhaling it. So this recipe in the video looks really good and I can't wait to try it since ticks here in Missouri are bad this year again.
Which one of witch hazel thayers
Tried this for my 16 month old dog and it worked! The fleas either jumped ship as I was spraying or they died of dehydration and cracked exoskeletons. Just moved to a new state and have switched topical flea medications and nothing was preventing them from reinhabitting whenever he squats outside. Thank you thank you thank you!
So glad to hear that!

You are amazing. My poor pet had seizures start right after a vet visit due to the drugs they gave her. Keep up the great work you are doing.

I'm so sorry your fur baby had a seizure, I've been through that with several dogs. It's horrible to watch. And I believe for a few it was from medication. Happy I found this wonderful Doctor.
cute dog, he yawns at the end, well lavander is a natural relaxing oil đŽ
Tula is such a good dog, she just lets you do whatever you want to do to her. đ
She's like here we go again đ đ
This is just what I was looking for to protect "Tank".. He's a 110lb Lab/Pit. I just didn't want to pump all those Pesticides into his system. I've seen he already has reactions to some common dog foods (anything Purina) so.. I knew he'd be having a problem with Frontline and Bravecto.... Thanks for the info Doc.. I'm a new subscriber now..
I have a pit and found that a lot of pits have chicken allergies/ sensitivities. I ended up cooking his food instead of dog food which almost all have chicken biproduct in. He also got sick with the flea and tick meds
This worked so fast and great for both my dog and cat !!! I peeled my aloe and put in high speed blender. Thank you , Thank you Thank you !!!! In 3 days they are so much better ! Now do you have any ideas for what I can use on my lawn that is non toxic?
I would like if there are alternative essential oils for the citrus in this recipe for the use in cats, since they lick themselves much more than a dog, would greatly appreciate it! Love your videos and your dedication to help our fur babies live healthier and better lives that translates better peace of mind for pet parents!đđ»
Have you tried Agriscept? Itâs a water based 4-citrus blend that kills pathogens. You can put it in drinking water, so Iâm assuming it will work for cats. Check to be sure.
What about clove as an ingredient?đ
Essential oils are detrimental to pets, it also affects their taste buds.
Also for anyone wondering if your dog has fleas have them sleep on a white sheet
Every morning spray the sheet w water and if the specks of dirt turns into blood then itâs flea poop which is dried blood
Diet plays a huge part so feed raw it keeps their immune system high you can add a little garlic to their food and try immune boost by standard process thatâs my formula
What is the meaning of: Immune boost by standard?" I speak Spanishđą
@@marda04standard process is the brand
adorable the way your puppy is paying attention to your preparing the mix as though you are preparing a meal for him

On a completely different topic, I love the color of the walls behind you so much I am going to repaint my own walls in those colors.
We had a dog for awhile that wanted to eat our other dog. Tore after her several times. The first time I took her to the vet and they stitched her up and gave her antibiotics. Before she healed she needed another round of antibiotics. The next time I looked up essential oils to help. So twice a day I rinsed it with colloidal silver water (have machine so wasnât expensive) and a douse of essential oil water. She healed quite well with that with no infection or side effects that I could tell.
Thank you doc, as usual, you are so helpful with your content! Keep it up, we love you!!!
I just love this. Thanks.
Also love how doggy watches him attentively. Probably counting the number of drops for each ingredient. Hehe
This would be good to spray on pants, sox and hiking boots before a walk in the woods.
no, these ingredients cause discoloration
Sister Wendy so it will fade dogs coats ?
Sister Wendy What would you suggest?
@@animallover4101 haha gooded point!
Thank you i searched and searched for recipes for flea and tick repelant... Finally i came up with a recipe of my own ... The spray i made for carpets, furniture, etc. Using Applecider Vinegar and water plus the essential oils listed below... turned out to also keep Misquitos off ..
6 drops each essential oils
Lavender, Rosemary, Peppermint, Lemongrass, Cedar wood, and only 2 of Basil... I used Extra Virgin Olive oil ast the carrier for the other oils .. This I used like the drops you put on the back of their necks and seems to be working well... Minus the Vinegar and water for use on my dogs and 2 cats.
Sweet Tula watching you make the spray. â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž

Thanks for this great video and also your recent subscriber email regarding the seresto BAYER flea collar. It's not easy, nor often equitable to speak the truth about these products but I admire your honesty and integrity to help spread the word about the potentially lethal effects of this product. If you save even ONE animal's life, you are a hero. Please keep up your amazing work and dedication to caring for our fur-families.
Thank you. I removed the flea collar from my 3 year old Aussie Blueheeler. She had a seizure after only having it on for less than 48 hours. Thank you again for providing a safer option for my puppy.
Thank you!!! Here is an FYI for us Human's!!! Use witch hazel on a soft paper towel after your bowel movement's , it totally cleanses you. Plus you can use to clean yourself after urninating men and women alike!! My family has done this for year's and we stay super clean. Freshen up any time and use as often as you like :)
I stumbled on Dr. Jones CZcams Videos - I'm impressed with his knowledge and I like his approach and non toxic remedies for illness. Looking forward to read his book.
I was just watching this video and I recently saw a ârecipeâ very similar for mosquito repellent for humans that was very similar, and Iâm going to try both- one for me and one for my baby dog! Thank you!
I really liked his explanation of the toxicity or lack there of essential oils. It makes me feel more at ease about using essential oils on my pets. Iâm going to buy these ingredients and make this flea spray. Thanks.
In Australia we have an oil called Kunzea it was commonly known as tickbush ⊠this would also be great in the whitchhazel and aloe Vera base.
I so appreciate all the help you give us. Obvious how much you love animals. Wish you were my vet.
Thank you so very muchâ€
you are most welcome
Thank you for your ebook! I've watched a ton of your videos and appreciate your knowledge and passion for the good health of our precious animals. God bless
Welcome
My 3 babies are allergic to pesticides!!
So I'm gonna try this recipe
I made flea spray with dawn dish soap and vinegar also used dawn dish soap to give them flea bath it worked
Iâve done the commercial flea and tick stuff, but I really HATE putting chemicals on my dog, Iâm in Iowa so once it freezes, I donât give any flea, tick or heartworm meds. I live in a small town and in the summer the town sprays for mosquitos once a week in the evening. We donât go out when they spay in the evenings. So this year Iâm trying this method. Thank you Dr. Jones! â€â€â€
An authentic healer! Brilliant and heartfelt. Thank you
Thank you for supporting natural remedies will definitely give this a go! Very generous of you.
thank you going to mix it NOW
My Father lined the dog house floors with cedar. No flea problems as long as I can remember. That was back in the 60âsâŠ.
How often should this be sprayed on the dog??
Thank you SO MUCH for this information, Dr. Jones! I subscribed to your Chanel and look forward to learning more natural remedies from you. I highly respect you for thinking outside of the box and looking for natural alternatives for these pharmaceutical treatments many of us have been using for our animals. Thanks again!
My dog had real bad skin started to feed him plain yogurt and he is as good as new. No sores no stink no itch! Just a little a few days a week
Good to know!
I made it for my pug and he was so interested watching me make it and didnât mind me applying it. Weâll see if it works
Thank you so much Doc! My Shih Tuz gets sick to her stomach on $58 dollar chewable treat for ticks and fleas and she throws it up, my husband is telling me do you think we can find that chewable in that đ of course I told him to get over it. We will be trying this spray because she has a sensitive tummy. We love natural products for our pets and ourselves. Btw our family loves Tula! She is a great sport!
Happy to help!
Every morning in the summer I rub a few drops of Austraian tea tree oil on my exposed body parts and over my sox. Musquitos come by but leave me alone. It works for me!
roger Bouthillier .... Please be careful. Tea tree oil can be toxic for dogs if not properly diluted.
roger Bouthillier please watch videos of Jim Nduruchi
TULA IS SUCH A GOOD PATIENT
Those three oils make sense, they are the active ingredient of many organic insecticides. Cedarwood is the big hitter. I spray it on mylawn and around the house to keep the critters out.

Thanks for the info. This will be a new one for me. I never considered using witchhazel and Aloe. So I will keep it in the fridge to be on the safe side and I'm sure my dogs won't mind it being a bit chilled. And yes use this spray everyday or when you take your dogs out for their walks. Best be safe than sorry.
Thanks Dr Jones for such invaluable information. I lost all my precious creatures but can pass on this info blessed be x

I used hand sanitizer on my 6 month old pup and brushed it with a brush. And voila, all the ticks and fleas were dead and jumping off. The next few hours, they were no more.
Really?!!! What was in it? Ingredients?
@@pamelawintergerst9437 I don't remember but most hand sanitizers consists of almost the same ingredients.
Omg I tried this and it works. Not just on my dogs and itâs safe for me as well. đ
I love the way the đ licks it's lips every time you add one of the ingredients I to go for national for me and my đ
Love your channel...you give pet owners the BEST advice!
Thanks Jeannie! Feel free to subscribe!
Hi, thank you for your video, so do I do the same for my cat and how frequently should I spray and how long does a bottle last?
Please respond on cat question, thanks! I, too, am curious.
Best not to use on your cat if they groom excessively. Can be used cautiously. Only a light mist, spread it around with your hands, and then no more than once/week.

Thank you doctor for a natural yet scientifically sound remedy.
