there's a plant too! to plant in your yard
i'll get back to you on that though...later
all mint plants including penny royal (mint family)
are aromatic enough to make bugs leave. (period)
when you use straight forceps
to remove a tick always turn them out
counter clockwise and they come out WHOLE
and rarely leave the head still in there
if the dog has long hair , have a spray bottle
of water and a small brush to brush the hair
360 Degrees away from the area first
never remove one unless your dog gets a reward
after...so then they'll lie still - if they want to interfere
then it's like a trick
