You use essential oils and diatomaceous earth to prevent fleas and ticks on your dogs? Any particular types of essential oils? And how do you apply the diatomaceous earth? Does this combination reliably keep the animals free of fleas and ticks? (I have a small border collie.)

In other matters, the summer of 1961, the last summer I lived in Seattle, I went to day camp at Lake Sammamish. And the old floating bridge and the Montlake were landmarks of my toddlerhood.

I remember using various minty oils, especially one which I'll remember when I stop trying to remember it. I remember it was a minty variety, and I know that peppermint oil is a good mouse deterrent.

jeez, it's on the tip of my tongue, but I'll have it in my head tomorrow. actually, Google will get you the information faster.
