used the mint mouthwash on flies, and it worked, but not "instantly.
they would crawl around, and i would zap them again a couple of times
(target practice) and soon i had kills laying all over. after shootin
them for about 3 days, there were no flies left and they haven't
repopulated the area for over a week now.
haven't heard back from the horse people in tucson, yet, about ticks,
and or fleas.........jim
I tried the cheap mint mouthwash on a tick. I soaked him in it and put him
in a bottle overnight. The next morning he was still alive. Obviously I
need to know the brand name of this mouthwash. The one I bought was from
Dollar General. Brand name Clean Mint. Ingredients: Water, Alcohol (8.4
wt%) Glyceryn and/or Sorbitol Poloxamer 407, Polysorbate 80, Flavor, Sodium
Saccharin, Sodium Benzoate, Cetylpyridinium Chloride, Domiphen Bromide,
Benzoic Acid, Blue 1, Yellow 5 Note; in case of accidental ingestion, seek
professional assistance, or contact a poison control center immediately. Do
not use for children under 6..... I can't imagine why this stuff didn't
kill the tick.. What was the brand and ingredients of the one that killed
them instantly????
