My friend asked me if I would like to keep another pet now that my dog has died. Actually, I dare not anymore. I feel so bad that my dog contracted tick parasite THREE times over the past two years. I didn't manage to rid my house and garden of ticks successfully because I was afraid that the chemicals in the pest control products would cause us harm. I guess if I had used the pest control solutions more generously, my dog would not have had to suffer three bouts of infections.
On the other hand, I can't tell what would happen to us if we were exposed to these chemicals whether through skin absorption or inhalation. You know, I have a friend who was a horticulturist who died of lung cancer and I think the culprit was all the pesticides that he inhaled through the course of work since he was a non-smoker.
The sad thing is that I only know now that there are natural pest control products that are effective not only against ticks but also other household pests like fleas, bugs and insects without introducing various chemicals to the household which may be detrimental to our health and harmful to the environment as well. I guess it is still not too late to know now.
