To flee or not to flea

Summer is a wonderful time of year for us. We spend a lot of time outdoors in the garden, we entertain more, we go out more, but we also have to deal with more bugs. We have the usual pests that eat up the garden, but we also have pests that eat us up like mosquitoes and dog fleas.

So it's an ongoing battle in our backyard to keep the pest problems to a minimum, but it's a problem we do not mind dealing with for the sake of being outdoors. My husband for some reason is more susceptible to fleas than I am. He breaks out and gets down right uncomfortable when he gets bit. The Flea Control Guide offers various ways to control fleas, both natural and with chemicals. It also offers other useful information like how to tell the difference between flea bites and chigger bites, and child-safe ways to eradicate them. If you're getting bugged, like my husband, this may be something you'd be interested in.
