Product Testimonial: Basic-H Goes to the Dogs

M Britt writes:

I was thinking about how hot it is for our German Shepherd/Malamute mix and remembered to check her ears (when it gets hot the biting flies are fierce for her).

I noticed that she didn’t have any flies around her; that's good but odd I thought, as they bite us every time we get out of the pool! Her ears are almost completely healed!

Then I remembered, just before we went on vacation, I sprayed her with my laundry pre-spotter mixture of Basic H and saw flies FALL off of her body--that was scary, but then I remembered this stuff is non-toxic so I shouldn't worry.

I then left some Basic-H out for my parents to take care of her with while we were gone on vacation. My dad sprayed our dog, doghouse and her pen while we were gone.

I also noticed she doesn't roll like a mad dog around the yard trying to get Basic H off of her fur. With bitter apple, baby oil and bag balm she would become a rolling, flailing dog for at least a good 10-15 minutes trying to get it off.

With Basic H, I cover her eyes, spray her body and get some on my hand to put some on her head and then when I let her go she will go lay down and she might rub her head once on the ground. With all of the other stuff, it didn't matter how long I tried to distract her, she was doing a full body roll all over the yard.

I use 1 cup of basic H and 3/4 cup of water to put in my spray bottle and use as a laundry pre-spotter. I haven't encountered a stain I couldn't get out with this mixture and now it's a really good fly repellant/killer.
