biting critters
Hi all. GARLIC does work and real well.
My mother fed and befriended a fox for three years or so. The first spring his neck was running red from the flies and was really tormented. Mom started feeding him garlic daily. (he actually preferred the garlic laced food). The next spring his coat was blood free and was not bothered by the flies.
Thought I would share.
