Tackling Fleas August 25, 2006

Summer is probably not over yet for pet owners.

For health-conscious people, it is often difficult to tackle flea problems without relying on chemicals. I know it gives me a headache every summer.

Have you ever seen how quickly fleas hide in a carpet? I saw a flea on the carpet one evening when I was lying around with my dog. I tried to catch it, but of course, the flea was faster than me. Carpet is a perfect environment for fleas to hide.

Vacuuming the carpeted floor thoroughly seems to work pretty well for me for keeping flea problems to a minimum. Many sources on the Internet say you should throw the vacuum filter bags after one use so that fleas won't hatch and escape from the inside of the bag. While I agree with the opinion, I always thought, "Well, it is not cheap to throw away the filter bags every time we vacuum the floor, especially if we use allergen-type filters, and also if we vacuum every few days." So instead of throwing away the filter bags after each use, this is what I decided to do... Every time I finish vacuuming the floor, I immediately take the filter bag off the cleaner and seal the hole of the bag with a masking tape. The hole is kept sealed until the next time I use the vacuum cleaner. It's a hassle to keep putting on and taking off the tape every time I vacuum the floor, but at least I'm glad I don't have to throw the bag away immediately.

Good Treats as well as Good Foods August 22, 2006

Antioxidant Health Bars contain no by-products, chemical preservatives, artificial flavors or colors
Don't just settle for good pet foods alone.

There are a variety of dog treats on the market today, and companies are making more and more flavorful products every day. I'm sure it's fun for pet owners to shop around in pet stores to get all the different types of treats to make their dogs and cats happy.

When you choose a treat, however, please read the label first to make sure that there aren't questionable ingredients in it. For example, BHA, BHT, ethoxyquin, propylene glycol, artificial colors and flavors, and excess sugar are common in many store-bought pet treats. If you are committed to feeding natural pet food to your pet, then you should be just as selective when you choose treats.

HealthyPetNet has natural treats. My dog's favorite is the Antioxidant Health Bars. These healthy treats are made of whole foods such as cranberries, apples, and spinach. There are no by-products, no chemical preservatives and no artificial flavors or colors. I sometimes pour a little bit of warm water onto the pieces she will eat to create a moist texture just before I give the treats to my dog. She seems to like it this way.

Good diet doesn't end with only good food!
