Whole lemon. 2 tablespoons thyme. 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Plus 2 cups of water. Zest and slice whole lemon and place in a pot. Chop the thyme. Add to pot. Pour the two cups of water and simmer very low for about an hour. Simmer. Not boil. About an hour. Strain. Keep liquid. THEN add 2 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. Pour into spray bottle. Protect pets face and spritz all over. Can be used a couple times a week. Brush through pets coat to evenly apply.

Dr Jones, just wanted to say THANK YOU for your Black Tea solution to eye lid tumors, my 10 year old dog developed quite a large one, I took him to the vet who were reluctant to remove it, so close to the eye I imagine. Tried Green TEA with some results then found some BLACK TEA and within 1 week it is almost gone, plan on doing for another week and periodically from then on to keep it at bay. HUGE THANK YOU.

I’ve noticed a couple little bumps on my dogs eyelid.. how do you use this remedy? Thank you.

[@karbvi]

@@mmsdcb9081 Hi, I followed Dr Jones directions which was to use the tea bags, I found the black tea worked best, put the bag in hot water and let it cool a bit but still warm , make sure it’s not too hot for your dog, test it on your own skin. Place it directly on the bumps for 5 minutes periodically wetting the tea bag, hold it on for minimum 5 minutes twice a day. I've been doing for about 10 days now and it’s almost gone, huge improvement . I think it will be gone in a few more days. Good luck.

Everything is a chemical though. Even what you call “natural” is a chemical. There’s organic chemicals and inorganic or synthetic. Just because a chemical is organic, it doesn’t mean it’s safe for you and just because it’s human made or synthetic/inorgamic, it doesn’t mean it’s bad for you. Grapes and chocolate for example. They are natural yet lethal for dogs and safe for humans.

I really believe it's the ACV that's the key. I had a cat that was allergic to flea bites & poor thing would pull her fur out. After trying lots of things, I came across a similar spray recipe: 1/2 cup water, 1/4 ACV, 1 tsp baking soda & 1/4 tsp salt. Worked like a charm and no nasty chemicals. :)

[@VeterinarySecrets]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@doracotterell2863]

I have cats. 1) Will this recipe also deter ticks which are plentiful on the island that I live on? 2) do I spray the cats everyday before they go out? 3) what about when they like their furs during grooming time … which they love to do after eating? Thanks ahead of time for your reply and time. ✨💖✨

[@SinfulVapor]

@@doracotterell2863 I don't have any experience with ticks but I can't imagine they'd like the odor at the very least. I would just do a light spray before they go out & observe how it works. I only used it until my cat stopped pulling her fur out, then on an as needed basis. In small amounts, all the ingredients, as well as in Dr. Jones recipe, are fine for when cats & dogs groom. Hope this helps. 😼💖

Yes any spray sounds like hissing. When cleaning the lesions from fleas monkeys dropped I had to use cotton pads one uses to remove makeup & soak with Effivet spray in the other room then wipe my cat down. Took 18 months to clear & I'm so worried about these flea products. Was using Revolution plus & been sponsored Bravecto plus this month but scared to use it. My cats hate the treatment & they groom one another. My only question is about the lemon as I heard lemon isn't good for cats, any citrus actually. Especially using these store bought essential oils in our homes - not on the animals. I heard neem oil is good for fleas on dogs but can't use it on cats.

Dawn or other dish soap also annihilate fleas. Soap up yer pup, leave on five minutes, then rinse super thoroughly as soap can cause stomach upset. This is best for clearing an infested pet to get a leg up, as it won't repel or tackle environmental fleas. Follow up with a spray like Doc suggests. Also good for pups or kittens with delicate skin that need relief fast.

Dr Jones you remind me of the movie Easy Rider. Free Love, Anti War and Give Peace a Chance. One of my greatness honors has been buddies remember me by my dog's name. Thanks.

[@pamanderson1417]

What is your dog's name?

[@Pawtooler]

@@pamanderson1417 I have 2 K9s now. Sweet Polly (courtesy of my stepdaughter) and Purebred... She followed us home when we were patrolling the neighborhood.

[@groovyhippiechick]

You should also spray the feet as well.

[@jeffhays1968]

You can also peel a lemon and get just the skin so cut up like you showed and add a couple handfuls of just the lemon skin for good measure.

Love this guy❣️ so grateful for him❣️

Two big, sloppy tablespoons of apple cider vinegar! Love it!

[@mls3555]

Fantastic spray idea! As an herbalist I can tell you it will be much more effective if you simmer it on LOW 15-20min. COVERED, turn it off & allow it to cool (2-3hours or overnight) LID ON to keep in rhe medicinal properties. Resist the urge to open the lid. You will have much more liquid at the end. This is great in a bigger batch as it won't likely go bad. I like to salt the water not sure that does anything here LOL DOC what do u think of adding bayleaf or Rosemary?

[@annmariet2008]

I read bay leaf was very toxic to cats but I wish he would touch on all those that are and dosage for them .

[@user-os3fd1gs1n]

I agree. Essential oils in the lemon skin would boil away. I was thinking a few drops of lemon essential oil might help. Just my thoughts....

[@user-nb5ru4vm8v]

I love watching all ur video the ones with Rachelle too .I didn't know how to help my dog flea allergy she itches 24 hrs a day thank for all your help she not itching like she was .I'm starting to fix my dogs food.

[@judymccleary7426]

Dr. Jones Since citrus EOs are not safe for cats, would this spray really be OK???

[@rosehawke2577]

Wondering the same thing. We've also used citrus as a *cat* repellant. Not sure the cats would put up with having it actually sprayed on them. I can see them all going nuts.

[@TVY2013]

My sense would be that a pure essential oil would be much, much more concentrated -- plus this is boiled in water.

[@flickeringcandle]

My dog cannot have flea and tick control due to seizures. So, I will make this but I don’t know how long to keep it and how it should be stored during the summer. I suppose it will keep forever based on the ingredients. I’m also going to use Lemon Thyme instead of lemon since I have that plant in my garden.

[@cynthiaan]

Thank you! Gonna try it!❤👏🏿😁

[@elizabethsmith38]

This is wonderful!

[@jamesleibensperger6489]

How about using lemon essential oil, and thyme essential oil with the apple cider vinegar? Thanks for the promotion of Holistic Veterinary principles!!

[@ChristineDivinagraciaVS]

That works too and less work on your part!

[@Momma_Tomma]

Herbalist here. 👋 You have to be careful with essential oils because they are VERY concentrated. What he did here was make an herbal infusion, which isn't as toxic. The essential oils that are drawn out in this method are very diluted, and the other compounds that are in the plant material help balance it.

[@Romans1.24-27]

Essential oil is best .just dilute

[@share2succeed157]

Watch out-essential oils can be fatal for your cats!

[@conniewallace7529]

One drop of each per cup of water, possibly? I know theyre very strong. But, for disabled ppl, this is much easier. TIA​@Momma_Tomma
