Did you know bugs don't do well in any type of oil?
put oil on them and they can't breath. so get a bottle of baby oil and squirt it
on HEAVY. bugs will be dead in the morning, and no more will get on
the while they are all oily. Carol IL
I've got a
problem I've never had before--and am sure somebody out there knows the
answer. I have several horses in a neighbor's huge, brushy,
almost-wilderness pasture. They have been there all summer - but just
the past couple of weeks I have been finding their chests, "armpits", and
lower necks covered with TICKS!! Little grey ticks.
What can I use to kill these ticks - is there a dip to use? There are
far too many to just pick off. Then - what can I use to repel
these ticks big-time?? FWIW, these ticks are not found
in their manes or ears. I've also walked through this same area and none
of the ticks has gotten on me--unlike the brown ticks that drop out of
trees.
