Hi de Hi Campers!
I'll be sending the client list out very shortly, directly from the Savvy Software, but I have JUST been notified of a double cancellation for Monday afternoon if anyone is interested?

Harvest Time = Harvest Mites
|
|
Harvest Mites (aka Chiggers) are said to have the itchiest bite of any critter out there. Thankfully, the little orange bloodsucking blighters are only a problem for a couple of weeks a year - the harvest time - when the females latch onto a host to suck blood so they can lay fertile eggs.
|
|
|
They then leave the host, return to the ground and are gone for another 11 months.
You are looking for ORANGE or BRIGHT RED tiny dots, about the size of a pin head, normally in that pocket of skin right up high in between your dog's toes.
|
|
|
I will, of course, be looking for them when your dog comes in. The easiest way being to use a hair dryer (or blaster, preferably, if you've got one) and have a very close look in between the toes and the pads of your dog. Please share this info with your friends also. It could save them a costly visit to the vet.
|
|
Naturally, I'm "on it" for your dog. Every dog coming in over the next 4 weeks will be getting the Wildwash anti flea / tick shampoo and then I'm layering the effect with their anti bug repellent in the conditioning rinse.
To me, it smells utterly divine, but it's a highly effective bug repellant and it works extremely effectively.
|
|
|
You can, of course, keep this regime up at home. I am selling the shampoo and the daily bug spray for £14.95 for 300mls.
When you need a refill, just bring the original bottle back and I'll refill it for £10.00.
We like that - it keeps plastic out of landfill. 😉
