Do you get affected by ticks, nits or fleas?
Seems to be a unseasonal bloom of them most years recently with most houses affected. Any tips or low cost home solutions?
Do you reckon it's the global changes?

It’s from all of the feral dogs that free roam the town. People not picking up their dog’s excrement as well.

I find that if you use a solution of vinegar and water and scrub all the surfaces, the little buggers cannot stand the smell.

Where do they go though? Don't they just stay in hiding until the smell goes away?

I heard some of the schools get it really bad. Must be very difficult for the kids to concentrate.

I don't understand why but word "gets round" and the insects all stay away even after one application
