   INteresting!!!  THe vinegar thing seems to work here in   
   Tennessee.  But then, my vet in NEw ORleans told me a lot of things that work   
   up north don't work down there, because   
   temps are often warm enough year round that fleas, tics and   
   other creatures are able to continuously reproduce and   
   mutate.   
   HEre in Tn. we still get some good freezes over the winter.
