Name: Homemade Flea Collars:
Use


** Use a strong knot and not a slip knot when securing the bandanna.**

Ingredients:

1 bandanna
2 feet of strong rope
2 rubber bands

3 tablespoons each of dried herbs (crushed)
Lavender
Pennyroyal
Eucalyptus
4 drops each
Cedarwood Oil
Citronella Oil
Geranium Oil

Finis:

Laying the bandanna flat, pour herbs into the center forming a line
going cattycorner on the bandanna. Mix the oils together in a small dish and pour over the line of herbs. Lay the rope across the herb line with equal measure sticking off both ends of bandanna. Taking the corner closest to you fold bandanna over to form a triangle. Gather the bandanna tightly around the rope as you go, roll the bandanna into one long tube. *Herbs should be equally dispersed along the rolled length. Secure each in of your "tube" with a rubber band (tightly). Be cautious on fitting your new flea collar on your dog. You do not want it too tight of course, but also not loose enough for her to bite at it and spill herbs all over the place.

Lasts 1-2 weeks.
