So expensive to keep the dogs flea-free, but not an option to quit treating them!<br /><br />No idears about moles, either. We get them on and off, but usually just act like the mounds aren't there. :) <br /><br />Blessings on your weekend.Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02576409086020993015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136711453357118304.post-41850245807726963652009-05-22T19:01:28.558-05:002009-05-22T19:01:28.558-05:00Someone once told me to put blue Dawn dishwashing ...Someone once told me to put blue Dawn dishwashing liquid in a white bowl and set it under a light directly on the carpet and the fleas would be attracted to it and jump in and die. Oddly, it really did work. But it's not practical for ridding your house of them. Still kinda cool, though. I recommend the flea "bombs." <br /><br />Oh, and tell your dad that I have the mole-diggin'-ist dog and I'll be glad to rent her out! She catches about two or three a week.lisa@littlesliceoflifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10999577252413065299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136711453357118304.post-5216221617403099122009-05-22T18:26:20.350-05:002009-05-22T18:26:20.350-05:00Glad that the baseball game went well.

Love it when that happens...even if you have to wait until the very end!<br /><br />Hope Kayla gets to feeling better!<br /><br />If you finish your dusting, and you get bored, come on over here...the yard sale has taken over other priorities in the house this week unfortunately! :)Christi @ Writing the Waveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00823044979897926569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136711453357118304.post-24205277044982175762009-05-22T17:45:18.664-05:002009-05-22T17:45:18.664-05:00Bomb the house.

They finally went away. <br /><br />Good luck with the cleaning. That's my weekend project, too.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02831708120022109063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136711453357118304.post-36371367092129453732009-05-22T16:07:37.211-05:002009-05-22T16:07:37.211-05:00Sis,

Close it up tight, put a couple of "flea bombs" out to fog, and leave it for a few hours. That did it at Poplar Bluff, for the previous owners had a big dog indoors, and we had a major problem.<br /><br />Hope that helps.<br /><br />Let me piggy back a request. Anyone know how to get rid of moles? Sitting and watchin' and shootin' is not an option. Likewise, the stick of gum down the hole to have them chew themselves to death. Traps don't work for us either. Can't find the regular run. The whole yard is crisscrossed with runs. Let me know.<br /><br />Hope your "war" goes your way.<br />Love you,<br />Jim-DadJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556537857098798281noreply@blogger.com
