I use this exact mixture to repel mosquitos for myself. I made batches for my neighbors last year and it worked for everyone!
I WAS TOLD THAT DRAGON FLYS EATS AND KILLS MOSQUITOS.... FIND OUT HOW TO GET THEM... EVEN FAKE ONES I WAS TOLD WORKS ALSO.... BUT REMOVE ALL STANDING WATER IN YOUR YARD...
This is really comforting to know.
Thank you so much.
Going out on a limb here…guessing you do not live in the Deep South.
@@FloraBamaGoneWild~ I don't live in the deep south, I'm allergic to mosquito and flea bites though, so if I get 2-3 bites I get hives and 3-4 days of misery. I'm also allergic to many OTC repellants like Off!
This solution works to repel the bugs!
Do you spray this mixture on you? How often do yiu spray it? Thanks!
I have been using coconut oil for fleas orally and put all over her body for a long time. My last dog lived 15 years, her sister lived 18 years . My present dog is a dachshund Cocker Spaniel mix she will be nine years old next month. And I have use nothing but coconut oil on her she has no aches and pains. No arthritis so far. And I believe that it's due to the coconut oil I give her twice a day morning and night. Just a spoonful. Thank you for your show I really enjoy it I've learned a lot.
Doctor I am having one issue with my dog. Finding her a good homemade food. I'm presently giving her lean low fat ground beef. With carrots shredded into it and the nutrients they need for homemade food. Her breath doesn't smell her poop isn't mushy. But I do hear her stomach growl growl at night and I'm hoping it's not because of the ground beef. I wish I could just give her the Science Diet food but so much junk goes into canned dog food it's so scary. Any advice? Priscilla
Hi do u use the neem oil too it just coconut oil? Do you heat it up so it's liquidy and doesn't make your dogs coat greasy? Thanks
How often do you apply this please?
I saw your other video with this recipe when you used your poodle to demonstrate. I had decided when I got my previous Papillion puppy that I was going to cook all her food and not use any harmful chemicals on her for fleas and ticks. This recipe is absolutely the best I've ever used! My pitsky named Amazing Grace had used the topical chemicals and the chewable, along with a very expensive dog food, she died at only 7 years ago and I truly believe it was a combination of all the above. The only good thing was that Amazing Grace never knew what it was like to ever have a flea her entire life. I love this recipe because it works and it's totally non harmful! I check my Papillion every day, she is always in my lap and I just love brushing her soft coat. Thank you Doc, you truly are a blessing to our furbabies and us too. 👑🙏🏻💞✝️🐾🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯

My dog use to be miserable we took him to the vet 4 times with no results. I watched your videos took your advice and my dog is happy again no more sore itchy ears. Thank you so much.
Dr. Jones, you're awesome!! Such a blessing to have a veterinarian who sincerely care enough to share safe home remedies for our fur babies. I've learned so much from watching your videos. After watching our totally healthy 9yr old boxer slowly deteriorate and die within 5 days of taking a prescribed heartworm prevention medicine. I NEVER want to experience that again. Me and my 7month old yorkie are so thankful for you😊
Catnip and silvervine are also good pest repellents. Not sure if they're safe for dogs though. Fresh, non dried actually gives you the oil of the plants which is more effective. Or you could just buy the oils.
Cat's don't just roll in it because it makes them happy, instinctivly they know it's multipurpose.
Doesn't just work on fleas and tiks either, keeps mosquitoes away.
Catnip is always talked about as the happy pill for our cats but it's other uses and benefits are often forgotten or overlooked.
I have seen my cat ( who never has fleas, ever) roll in my cat nip, and also in my apple mint.
How do you apply this? Or do they need to take it internally?
Thank you ...I been searching for natural resources for fleas since high liver panels came back last fall. They went down but concerned about chemicals. I appreciate you !
Thank you SO much, Doctor.
I desperately need your natural remedy because any other method is going to render my dogs into an early grave.
Out here in the bush in Queensland, paralysis ticks kill so many dogs of such tender ages. Some of those paralysis ticks are minute and can easily elude detection; and as you understand, they burrow beneath the skin of our dear companions. It is heartbreaking and it is IMPOSSIBLE to recover from the loss of these beautiful and devoted creatures.
I am so grateful to you for another timely and most critical video.
I'm a Queenslander too and have recently started tuning in here. I'm terrified of paralysis ticks. I've had a few close encounters with my dogs over the years and they survived thank goodness. Two had to have the antiserum. I'm curious to know if you have used this natural repellent and how it went for your dogs in the Queensland paralysis tick zone but also for bloody fleas.
I just lost my beautiful cairn terrier to hemangiosarcoma and I'm sceptical now of all the chemicals we are encouraged to use in and on our dogs, particularly Bravecto and the rest of the flea and tick treatments.
I have get such a peaceful feeling now that I have watched your video. After giving my dog Simparica and seeing him getting those seizures I will never again give him that garbage. My vet didn’t even now😢😢😢
Made this for my pets and so far so good. Sprayed it on myself and worked great as mossie repellent
Just discovered your shop through requesting for the free book. You’re appreciated more thank you know! I’m all for natural first. God bless you.
Great! Can't wait to try. Also appreciate the written recipe in the info box 👍
I have been trying to use a flea spray from one of Dr Jones' previous videos but my dog runs away when she sees the bottle. I will try his new mix. Out of all the natural approaches I have tried, rubbing a good amount of organic coconut oil into my dog's fur at night has been the most effective so far. In combination with frequent vaccuming, washing all the bedding or putting it out in the sun, giving fresh garlic (don't do this if you don't know amounts - my holistic vet said I should give half medium clove of garlic per day for my 7kg dog). I mix it into 1/2 tsp local honey and with a bit of coercion she will gobble it up.
My dog doesn't like this one.
Just put it on the second time, and she walks away .
She remembers the first time.
I think it doesn´t only scare away ticks and flees, but also the dog itself.
I think they realy hate the smell.
My dog used to run away as soon as I pickup a spray bottle also, but then I put it beside the door and leashes - once dog is on leash about to go for walk, I spray her fur (she can't run), and then we immediately go outside for walk, which promptly distracts from the fact I just sprayed her. So now, she is finally used to it and doesn't bother trying to run away when I pickup the spray bottle anymore.
I am now holding my hand over her nose🤣 , so that she doesn't inhale the fine spray as she used to sneeze from it. It works. I think once it's on her it's easier tolerated than when it floats in the air
@@ashapuri3114
I spray it in my hands, and then rub it on with my hands.
That way i can also put it under her and between the paws.
As soon as i put it on her, she starts to roll around on the carpet to try to get it off.
Or outside rolling in the grass.
She realy hates the stuff.
@@ashapuri3114 That makes perfect sense, we forget how sensitive their noses are.
Andrew, you are one of the many which make the Internet Great! Thank You!
I appreciate you staying the course with your thoughts and beliefs. Your TH-cam channel has probably helped more people and their pets than your practice ever could. I hope you are getting some monetary reward from all of this good info that you are sharing. I make a people insect repellant salve using solid coconut oil, olive oil, bees wax, neem and lavender oil. I never thought to add cedarwood, but it makes sense. I use dried plantain for the skin healing part of it instead of witch hazel. Thanks again for all of your good info.
Doc has his own line of pet vitamins, etc. for sale if wish to support him monetarily. That’s one way he gets monetary support in exchange.
Tried looking for the 1st ingredient and all the witch hazel on Amazon had aloe in it as well…the ingredients should be easier to find
Golden bough Witch Hazel non alcohol
Thank you!
I'm having the same problem. Looked up GNN and they only ship to Canada. Did you have any luck?
Thanks, Dr. Jones. I can feel good about using this on our dog and our cats 😊
Perfect timing for this in the south! Many thanks, Dr. Jones! 😻
Thank you so much. Avoiding toxic chemicals on my animals so this is perfect. 😊
I was part of a facebook IBD cat group back when my senior cat was ill and I asked the group about natural flea meds since my baby was at a delicate state. I mentioned how in the past I given my cat coconut oil baths and immediately I had one of the mods shut down my post, followed with angry explanation from the mod expressing how toxic coconut oil is for cats 🙃 I just wish I had found this chanel sooner...
Dr Jones has used the Thayers original in many videos so that’s what I used and the aloe in it is also good. They even have a lavender option. Use your best judgement people. If spray bottle scares your animal, soak a paper towel and wipe them with it. If you’re worried about the cat licking, put it on places they can’t reach.
Love your channel
This has been a true lifesaver. My 3 dogs, 2 cats & I thank you. Thank you for all that you do.
I’m so glad to run across this video. I’ve been worrying about what to use on my dogs this summer. I don’t want to use any of that other stuff. Thanks Doctor! ❤
This is amazing!!! Thank you so so much!!❤
Thank you. I have a few cats that are super sensitive to fleas and the otc stuff almost killed one.
Dr Jones, I use your previous formula with aloe vera juice, it is effective and smells wonderful. How is this new formula compare to the old one?
Thank you so much for all you do Dr. Jones, you have helped us so much with our little sausage dog who has been suffering with allergies. Thanks to home cooking, we have nearly got his skin back to its previous healthy condition. Unfortunately though, we are still struggling with his little saddlebags under his arms which he finds intensely itchy, we are having a hard time trying to figure out whether they are a sign of a food related sensitivity/intolerance or an environmental factor. Every time they get better and we treat with creams, they seem to come back straight away and the poor little guy itches them so much he has a large excess of swollen bald skin on his leg. In your experience are underarm sores food or environmental allergies? We wonder whether to start him on raw food and would like to do it ourselves, but we are unsure how long you have to freeze different meats for dependent on what protein source it is, any future videos on DIY raw feeding would be great. Thanks once again Dr. Jones.
Thank you for this recipe. I hate that we use poison on our dogs to repel flea and ticks. We could do the same for ourselves and stop putting so much poison on and in our bodies! You rock!!
I'm so excited that I came across your channel! My two kittens contracted fleas and the only remedy I know is food-grade diatomaceous earth. The issue is, no matter how safe it is for animals, it's a desiccant and can cause dehydration. I thoroughly rubbed my pets down with it last night and spread it all over my apartment. Thank you for sharing about this spray and I look forward to using it in the near future!
Wondering how the diatomaceous earth worked in your apartment? Mine suddenly has fleas somehow and I''m really nervous that they'll become out of control! My cat is an indoor cat, she's been in here for her whole life (1 year), so it's confusing re: the fleas origin, but I certainly don't want to use anything toxic! Here's hoping you had good luck with the DE...
be careful with applying to animals b/c the dust can damage lungs
Thats my concern too.@alexandrac9536
I'd add extracting catnip in the witch hazel to make infusion and then follow rest of recipe. It really helps with mosquitoes and deer flies too.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Doc. I'll mix this for my Sweetses too. Just been shedding tears over my one large dog having two seizures, back-to-back. I gave him Manuka honey, after searching on the web and he could get up and walk to follow me to the kitchen and waiting on supper. I didn't have the oils on hand that you mentioned, but I will look into that.
Find yourself a holistic doctor in your area. Read about CBD full spectrum for your doggie.
My 180 lb. Boerboel also occasionally has seizures 😢. I’ll have to look up the Manuka Honey, and the CBD, thanks for passing along info!
I read that the red dye in a lot of commercial dog food can cause seizures (I only feed raw). Also, adding coconut oil to his food is supposed to be very effective in preventing seizures, Ima try that too.
@@hazmania4794 commercial food is worst. I cook for my dogs(used to feed them raw but one of them didn't like it). I add raw goat milk to their food(solutions pet products). One of my dogs got very sick last November. I found a holistic doctor and my dog is so healthy right now.
@hazmania4794 Hey just wanted to let you know that I don't know how many times my dog has had those seizures. But in the process, me and my husband pump his chest and give him breathe like cpr, and were always praying during the process and he comes back after a while. We give him a full dropperful of alcohol free black walnut and wormwood combination tincture, once everyday. I wash him with dawn once a week and I usually take off 1-2 fleas. Buy now I'm going to wash his bedding and do this concoction to keep them off. I also blend Papaya, pumpkin seeds, Turmeric, beets, bananas, and apples and put them into a baking mold for an everyday treat. It helps with paralyzing the worms from his ingesting them through biting. It's a continuous process but the black walnut definitely helps. He had this seizure/heart attack more than 10 times. But I give praises to Yahawah and he keeps him here with us 😀🥰
Thank You! Right on time! You are greatly appreciated. Watching from San Antonio, TX
Thank you as always!!!!
1:38
1/2 cup witch hazel extract (non-alcoholic)
1/4 cup liquid coconut oil
3ml or 3 dropperfuls neem oil (this will be 1.7%; less than 2% is safe), heated to melt
10 drops cedarwood essential oil
10 drops lavender essential oil
Place in spray bottle. Warm up if needed. Shake well. Mist dog lightly avoiding eyes, mouth. Use flea comb to spread oil in coat. Dogs 3x/week. Cats 1x/week.
This recipe has been great for all of my 5 cats who actually seem to like it and also for my mother who suffers from itchy skin. Within minutes any itch stops and seems to be helping fleas and ticks most importantly! Thankyou!
???QUESTION??? Is the Neem Oil safe for cats now? The reason I am asking is because I read a comment you made regarding another Neem Flea Remedy on July 2, 2021 where you stated this: "It is considered safe when used at 2% or less dilution topically - the issue is that cats are going to clean themselves and most likely ingest it, and this is why I do not recommend Neem for use on cats." I just want to verify that the Neem oil is safe for my Kitties before I spray it on them. Thank you so much and I love all of the wonderful information you share!
Right!!! I want to know, too!
the dose makes the poison. the dilution prevents it from being poison and you are careful not to use it to often
Im concerned too! Along with cedarwood ..cats metabolize in the liver and im getting both yes and no online;(
No answer?
You’re amazing,thank you
U r the best!! Thnx 4 all u tell us!
You are WONDERFUL ❤
Carung, charming, intelligent & just a general great human being.
THANK YOU for the work you do!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for helping us and our pippsters! ❤
Just received your CBD oil and I'm extremely happy with the quality. It's def 100%cbd oil! I will be ordering your supplement soon!
Just what I needed, a squirrel snook into our house yesterday and after inspecting it it was actually carrying fleas! My two cats and a doggo will be getting preventative spray mix and be under a watch 🥺
Thank you for your wonderful remedies.
Thank you. I will have to try this. My baby girl has been with me for almost 14 years and, now I cannot afford a vet visit. Doing the best I can. I never of the dog growing up and I've never had to do with late-stage life care.
Awesome… many thanks for this.
I’m surprised there isn’t citronella oil in it as well. But I’m happy to try this because mosquito bites, I believe, can spread heart worm. Thanks so much! ❤
Thank you! I just got a puppy & am making this for him! Love your videos!
You're very welcome! I'm glad that the information I provide is helpful and appreciated. I strive to share valuable insights to assist pet owners like you
Going to try this!! Thank you !! 😁👍
Thank you, Dr. Jones for always helping❤️💙
Thank you so much, my place is loaded with ticks, every time my dogs go out side they come in with ticks..And i am so worried about the poisonous flea and tick kilker as my dogs are only about 3 pounds , not sure just what their little bodies could take..
The place we're renting is really REALLY bad with fleas😭😭😭
I'm afraid to spray the yard because my dog, Delilah, is pretty small too
If you can get some hens or a couple of guinea hens

Hey Doc, Great video, but would definitely appreciate if you showed Where are you got the ingredients from definitely having a hard time finding the non-alcoholic witch hazel. Thanks.
Amazon has everything. 😉
Me too… That’s the only ingredient I’m having trouble finding. Many products have it mixed with aloe. Wondering where you got the witch hazel in your video Dr. Jones. Excellent information!

@IamAChildOfGod Thank you, I should have watched it again.
I would like to know too.
Can you please give us a clue or a link where to buy the None Alcoholic Witch Hazel Extract in the USA. I check several famous brands and sites, including organic places, did a Google search most have other ingredients from Aloe Vera and another ingredients like citrus, which in skin humanas can cause a lot of irritation. PLEASE HELP US, is it only found in Canada? Thanks for all you do, lots of hugs to Tula. Stay safe.

just awesome thanks doc
Lavender contains a small amount of a compound called linalool, which is toxic to both dogs and cats. Linalool is found in such small concentrations, however, that toxicity is rarely an issue. Problems arise only if a dog ingests a very large quantity of lavender. Seems like this is a slight risk and may be worth just not including.
My dogs skin is pink and lavender caused her to have brown spots and she started losing hair bad too!
Thank Jesus something I will feel good to used thats safe for my fur babies ❤ Thank you
You're welcome!
Thank you
Thank you!! Natural is the safest way to go.
Indeed!
Is there 1 place you can purchase all these ingredients
You are the best, Dr Joans!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much, from Ireland.
I know you’re and other ppl will say I’m FOS BUT Akitas do not get fleas Dr. Andrew. In November1982 we were moving across the Causeway, Metairie to Folsom, LA. I had my 1st Akita puppy! We stopped at any vet back then 🤦♀️ to get Bolo is last round of puppy shots. The nurse came out and said, does your Akita have fleas? I became insulted and gave her an angry NO. She says excuse me, I was just wondering bc the doctor just got 2 Akita pups and they don’t have fleas either. - We did get them after a dog show. But, my dogs now are not isolated, we go to the park 5 XS weekly and most of all they get bathed at least every 7 to ten days. I look and look and look! NONE.
I’m in the country. I have a friend that comes over through the woods. First thing she says when Spring started, oh Laura, the fleas😳. WTH!
Maybe it’s the double coat. I just don’t know. - over the years other Akita ppl told me the same. I am flabbergasted! Lol.
My girlfriend gets Trifexus. She has a Great Dane and a Standard Poodle. I told her you might as well dig their grave! She’s hard headed! ESP the old Dane, she’s killing her.
I’m sending her this video!
What is your point? To kill off all other breeds bcs of fleas, ticks, and only breed Akitas? How about just concentrate on solving the problems , like this vet does!
Thank you so much. I didn't want to try the chemicals on our fur baby so was looking for natural remedies and found your video , so going to make it for him .
Thank You Doctor!!
Thank you so much.
Remedy par excellence
Thank you so much gorgeous !!

Coconut oil I keep in my house. I use it on myself and my cat. It heals scratches and helps his and my dry skin.
TICK FIGHTER SPRAY is gentle yet powerful. It eliminated the ticks on my cat without causing any irritation.
