Heather,
I like the way you think! I am a holistic health practitioner and an organic
farmer. I have never investigated too much into herbs and holistic
treatments for my animals. Normally I have no health problems with them. The past
year or so has been the pits however and I have had many burdens to bear in the
past 1-2 yrs that have totally taken my attention and energy and my animals
have had to go on back burner.
It has been flirting around in the back of my mind for some time now that I
would like to get more holistic with my animals. May I ask what herbs you
treated with and what your routine is now that you have had such a success using
them?
I know lots of folks use diatamacious earth (DE) for intestinal worms. I
used to use it for flea treatments in my house and ON my dogs, but have never
used it internally. I know it is an irritant and will slice skin microsopically
(that is how it kills soft bodied insects including flea larvae) so I have not
been that willing to give it internally without knowing more.
Thanks!
