Ear mites are common in cats and dogs; are highly contagious. Cats usually start them and they're the last to be treated. A cat with ear mites will scratch its ears frequently and a deposit that looks like dried coffee grounds, black gray, even white will form down in the ear canal. A dog will scratch and shake its head and its ear canal may look quite red and inflamed. Bacterial and Fungal infections are secondary to ear mites. Homemade: Natural Ear Mite Treatment 4:
Yellow Dock Tincture 1oz glass amber bottle with dropper $6.50. Treat the ears with this mixture once every 3 days for six weeks. Ear mite eggs are quite resistant to just about anything. That is why a six week period of treatment is recommended. Also, Mullein Oil (last page) For Ear Infections- can be used every day for one week and every second or third day for three weeks. To use, apply several drops of the oil, warmed to body or room temp.
MANGE: See Anti-Fungal Salves
TICK PREVENTION
Powdered Rosemary; Powered Rue, Powdered Wormwood. 4oz Glass Shaker $6.25. Store in a dark cool place. Before your animal goes into a tick infested area, groom its coat, removing loose hair and mats. Dust the coat with this powder, working it in thoroughly with your fingers, concentrating on the neck, back, and legs and underneath the tail and ear flaps. Avoid the eye or nose areas. After the outing, remove any ticks which may have attached themselves. This powder is not for continuous prevention.
It’s natural that those of us who routinely use herbs for self care would want to use herbs for our pets as well. We must remember though that what works for humans does not necessarily transfer to pets, and in some cases what is helpful to humans can be harmful for pets.

FEET THAT BEAT THE HEAT..........
|
|
Our feet are all too often hidden from view and neglected, especially during the colder winter months. Out of sight and out of mind - that is, until they start aching, flaking, cracking or getting sore! Perhaps we don't always appreciate the work our feet do until they're not working properly. The simple fact is that we only have one pair of feet to last us a lifetime, and should pay them the respect they deserve for getting us around every day. And when summer arrives, it's a much better prospect to unveil a pair of perfectly pristine pedicure tootsies than two cracked-heeled and scaly feet! The easiest solution to keeping your feet in tip-top condition. The foot scrub will help to gently exfoliate the dead skin cells, whilst foot lotion will help to keep your foot's skin supple and soft.
These powders are great for the feet - not just the smell but the texture. An acceptable alternative to using talcum powder on the feet, this powder is made of all natural ingredients and is deodorizing and anti-perspirant

CHILDREN'S "SPIRIT" PRODUCTS: Babies and Children have an especially sensitive sense of smell. It takes only six weeks for babies to recognize their mother's scent. For babies and children, Essential oils are best as opposed to artificial fragrances. Babies usually love the soft, light fragrances of tangerine, honey oil, Orange, Roman Chamomile and Rose. Slightly older children love Lemon, Cinnamon, Orange and oils with a flowery scent. Children love it when their bathwater smells good such as Roman Chamomile, Honey and Vanilla with Botanicals of Calendula Petals or Oat straw. Lavender at bedtime helps calm restless children. Bran added to bath oil and mixed with bathwater soothes children with sensitive skin. Note: Only a hint of pure essentials oils are used in children care products.

Nettle tea is springtime’s natural elixir. One of the earliest green plants to emerge each spring, nettles can be easily brewed into a tea which has healthful, restorative benefits which boost the immune system and awaken the body to spring. ‘Stinging’ nettles are given this name for good reason. If you touch any part of the plant, you will be stung. The sting is mildly painful and can last for hours. Wear gloves, long-sleeved shirt and long pants when hunting for nettles. Use a scissors or garden clippers to cut the top two bracts of leaves, leaving the rest of the plant to regenerate. Set a pot or bag alongside the plant and clip directly into the container. About a cup of fresh leaves is sufficient to brew a cup or two of tea.
