Natural Solutions to Things That Bug You

I am an amateur Entomologist (having taken a couple of courses) and have quite a number of books on insects, but this one is so different! It was written in 2012 but the information is still very current. There are cartoons and fun information about the critters that are making gardening difficult; and it has a lot of homemade remedies! Be sure to add this to your collection of bug books!

Some great alternatives for chemical solutions to household pests. Good for options especially for people with children or pets, or chemical sensitivities. A few of the 'solutions' that I tried didn't work particularly well, but since they all consisted of natural products and ones that I would often normally have around the house, it still seemed worth trying the various suggestions. A good 'first-response' before resorting to harsh chemical pest control products. Worth a try, informative and interesting, regardless!

Knowing of some "Natural" ways to rid pests, I was very happy to learn even more about the creatures that invade our living space but make us 'creepy' and often unwell. I have family and friends that come by, read a bit and get excited about putting something simple and natural to work in homes that may have children and pets and fear of the pesticides and chemicals that are often used (with the user not informed of something safer.) Also, I discovered that some "pests' are often good as they deter others that we can let alone for that reason and live together if possible..

Some of the stuff in this book is good, Some has to have too much different stuff to mix to make the repellent. I was looking for something to get rid of spiders, but was not happy with any of the stuff. Too many different things for different spiders. I don't know what kind of spiders they are; I just know I want them gone.

Very good .......

HAVE USED THIS BOOK A FEW TIMES AND LIKE THE RESULTS. IT'S A GREAT GO TO BOOK THAT'S NICE TO HAVE IN ONE'S LIBRARY. I LIKE THE NATURAL SOLUTIONS. SOME I WONDER ABOUT, BUT TIME WILL TELL. HAPPY I PURCHASED IT.

Natural Solutions to Things That Bug You I do not know how we can be sure that the book we have ordered is, in fact, the book "As Seen on TV" that we receive. The book I received did not follow the page numbers that were referred to in the TV commercial. The font is different. I believe this may be a "fake" book that someone is passing off as the real thing or maybe they did not know it themselves. There was nothing regarding "fleas" in my book; although Dr. Bader talked about scoring an orange and rubbing it on the dog and how to make your own flea collar using a "new" leather collar. So, I think we may have been "had" by a few unscrupulous people or it was done unwittingly. I have read some other comments and I believe they have been duped as I am beginning to think I was. I am not happy about it either. The book advertised that was on the commercial appears to be better and I suppose the only way, other than Kindle, to be sure you are getting the "real" thing is to use the official site and pay the full price. I believe Amazon should be made aware of this and check it out for themselves.

Bought this so I wouldn't have to spend a lot of money having dangerous chemicals sprayed in the house. Found the 'recipes' to be difficult to follow since most of the ingredients are things I either could not find or have never heard of. This one was a miss.
