Why use Young Living Essential Oils on your Pets?
Pets that are not treated with chemicals and drugs, including antibiotics will experience better overall health and live longer than expected. They are naturally more natural, they are creatures of nature. So, would you agree that it just makes sense to use naturally derived substances for treating your pets?
Would you like to have the healthiest pet possible? Would you like to help your pet naturally dispel parasites, repel ticks and fleas, have healthier teeth and better smelling breath? How about a calmer more relaxed pet? Wouldn't you love to have a natural first aid kit for emergency when it comes to your beloved pet? Of course, you have answered "yes" to all of the questions above. Young Living Essential Oils are 100% Pure Therapeutic Grade and address all of the above issues. I love my pets and children. I want the best for both, so this is why I am focusing on sharing with you the following information about naturally deterring pests:
Recently, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced an agreement with two companies to take pet collars containing the chemical propoxur off the market. After an assessment, the agency found "unacceptable risks to children" the first day after the collar is put onto the pet.
Here's the problem: The products won't actually be gone until 2016, if then.
Under the terms of the agreement, the companies, Sergeant's Pet Care Products Inc. and Wellmark International, can distribute the products until April 1, 2016. Even after that, stores can sell them until all are gone. The EPA says the collars leave a residue on the pet's fur that can be absorbed through the skin of children who hug or pet the animal. Also, children can ingest the chemical if they pet the animal and then put their hands in their mouths.
The move came after the Natural Resources Defense Council sued the agency. It also asked for action on a second flea and tick chemical that the EPA did not address - tetrachlorvinphos, or TCVP. "We've known for a long time that they're neurotoxic," said Miriam Rotkin-Ellman, a senior scientist with the national environmental nonprofit. "These products should not be on the market."
The chemicals, she said, cause an overexcitation of the nervous system. "That is what happens to the poor flea. . . . Its nervous system overfires." Unfortunately, mammals have similar neuropathways, and the council says that the chemicals, in high enough doses, can interfere with the development of a child's nervous system - the smaller the child, the bigger the worry.
I found products with propoxur in a local big-box pet store, and the label bore a warning: "Do not allow children to play with collar."
The EPA specifies an additional warning: "Try to keep the pet away from your young children for a day after putting on the pet collar." Caryn Stichler, a Sergeant's vice president of marketing, said the company was "pleased to be able to work with the EPA to resolve this matter amicably and ensure that our customers can continue to benefit from uninterrupted access to Sergeant's products."
Fortunately, much better products are available anyway, said Daniel Morris, a veterinary dermatologist at Penn's School of Veterinary Medicine.
