Natural flea remedy Here's another flea solution I've not seen proposed on net.news. My Pekingese LOVES garlic (also Mexican food and spicy octopus- anything gourmet). Putting mashed garlic with his food each day makes everything palatable to him and makes him unpalatable to fleas. Don't worry there's no garlic breath! But it certainly does seem to keep the fleas off. I've also heard it's very good for his heart. You can buy ready'mashed garlic in little jars now - it's great and very handy. J Friedman (rabbit!jaf)
