Fighting animal parasites
Seize my dog and the flea seal. And I’m glad to help poor animals, and I do not know how to deal with parasites.
Let’s start with fleas. These are wingless insects, temporary ectoparasites (external) warm-blooded animals. There are about 1400 species. On human and domestic animals, most often parasitize canine and human fleas.
Dangerous fleas primarily because they can tolerate pathogens. Blood suck both males and females, and repeatedly, even throughout the day. Saliva of insects is toxic, and therefore at the site of bites appear vesicles, which are accompanied by itching. Particularly difficult to tolerate the attack of fleas are young animals. They develop depletion, which can even lead to the death of animals.
What to do if your dog or cat picked up fleas? First of all, do not use for their washing zoo shampoos – because animals can have a variety of skin diseases. And these shampoos cause irritation and inflammation of diseased skin areas. Now special literature and practice recommend the destruction of fleas, treating animals with chemicals, in particular 3-4% solution of soap “K” (the temperature of the working solution is 35-37 њ C).
Nevertheless, it should be borne in mind that animals, especially cats, are very sensitive to various chemical agents and are difficult to tolerate the bathing process. Do not forget also that these drugs are poison not only for fleas, but also for their temporary “masters”. Therefore, for your four-footed friends it will be much better if you fight with parasites ancient, undeservedly forgotten folk remedies.
Miraculously expelled fleas strong decoction of wormwood – one or two glasses of ground grass to a three-liter pot of water. Bring to a boil and boil for 15-20 minutes, then cool. This decoction needs to wet the animals from the nose to the tip of the tail, then
As a rule, they do not, because the broth is very bitter.
Then the wool of the animals is unfolded and carefully combed with a rare comb. To completely get rid of fleas, quite two such procedures for 10-15 days.
Parasites are afraid even of the smell of wormwood. Dogs that live in the yard can be put on dry or fresh wormwood in the booth – and they will not suffer from fleas.
Do not like pests and the smell of tansy. If you are one or two times a month, or more often (harm will not be), tear off the yellow inflorescence of tansy, rub it in the palms of your hands and rub this animal, fleas, if any, flee. By the way, broth tansy, brewed, like weak tea, it is good to wipe the dogs eyes. And, in the end, the last.
Often, especially after walks in the forest, dogs are tying ticks that cause them pain, draining animals. If you find a tick on the body of a dog or other animals, drip a few drops of any oil on it, which can be found on hand, wait a few minutes, pick up the parasite with cotton wool and carefully move it from the body of animals.
