Guest guest Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Z3 Agree all rodents and birds on home and around must be eradicated. I still use the pest sound repellent not sure if it helps? Have on in each room, my pets seem unaffected. The electronic pest control will take several weeks to show effectiveness. I have 2 in my bedroom:) I also keep poison in attic and basement. Also I leave homemade lye soap bars in each room, the old timers in the south say the lye bars will keep pest away? Then when I make the liquid lye I just shave some off and put back in the room. The link below is for reference it has been so long since I bought mine, think I got them at Ace hardware and some through publisher's clearing house. Just shop around and find the cheapest I would think. Anyone else tried the pest control electric? http://www.sourcingmap.com/ultrasonic-electronic-pest-mosquito-insect-rodent-rat\ -repeller-p-36170.html Folk claims about lye soap: It keeps kids from swearing. It's great for removing laundry stains. It helps relieve psoriasis, eczema, dry skin and acne. Wash right after exposure to remove poison ivy. Wash and rinse affected area three times a day. Leave the lather on the spot to dry it up. It sucks the heat out of sunburn. Get relief in minutes from the lather left on. The lather relieves the itching of mosquito and chigger bites and also repels mosquitoes. Hang lye soap on trees to keep away insects that bore. Put it under your bottom sheet at the bottom of your bed to alleviate leg cramps. A bar under the sink keeps ants away. A bit on a hook is good catfish bait. > > > > > > > > > > > > Are you going to any other sites for information and have you read anything, or is this your first contact? > > > > > > > > > > > > I did find that because of how tenacious these things are they migrate from one place to another if their locale is not working for them. They started in my scalp over 2 years ago. I no longer have sores in my scalp, although some crawlers and biters once in a while. So you have to treat the whole body. You have to treat the environment as well as the outer body and the inner as well. When I saw the inner, change your diet (for many of us this is necessary, but not all), no sugars except occasional fruit, lots of green vegetables, cleanse colon, eat fewer carbohydrates in general), etc. You've probably heard all of this before. With children it is harder to all of the above, I know. > > > > > > > > > > > > Where do you think you contracted this? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > scalp > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Lye Soap to Get the Dirt Out and as a Curative http://www.grannyslyesoap.com/ It seems that the Amish and the people of the Appalachian Mountains have an old tradition in common: making and using lye soap to really get the dirt and stains out of clothes. In the Smokey Mountains people also use it to heal poison ivy or poison oak. It also exterminates bugs like lice, bed bugs, and mites. Other uses of handmade lye soap are numerous. For instance, some people use it for eczema, acne, keeping mosquitoes away, psoriasis, ridding animals of fleas, clean cement, chigger bites, shampoo, sunburn, laundry, cure leather, to bleach white clothes, and stops itching of athletes foot. If you are planning to go in the woods you can use lye soap as a preventative measure against poison ivy. Moisten your fingertips with water and scrub them across the bars of soap to make a cream and rub this on your skin. This will keep the oil from the poison ivy from getting into your skin. When you come back home cleanse your skin with hot water and the lye soap. Rub your arms and legs, stroking away from your body. Lye some is more versatile than many other soaps as you can see from the many ways people use it. Lye is also used to clean pipes, but when it is mixed with oil it changes chemically, the process is saponification. Once this process takes place you have soap, but no more lye when the mixture is made in the right proportion. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Are you going to any other sites for information and have you read anything, or is this your first contact? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I did find that because of how tenacious these things are they migrate from one place to another if their locale is not working for them. They started in my scalp over 2 years ago. I no longer have sores in my scalp, although some crawlers and biters once in a while. So you have to treat the whole body. You have to treat the environment as well as the outer body and the inner as well. When I saw the inner, change your diet (for many of us this is necessary, but not all), no sugars except occasional fruit, lots of green vegetables, cleanse colon, eat fewer carbohydrates in general), etc. You've probably heard all of this before. With children it is harder to all of the above, I know. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Where do you think you contracted this? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > scalp > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Grandma's homemade lye soap....those words can bring the fear of God into a young lad's heart. I remember when school was almost ready for summer break. We would be excited as we planned our summer vacation to my grandparents' home for several weeks. Then, as part of the checklist, Mom would tell Dad to remind her to bring home some of Grandmother's homemade lye soap. Knowing that Mom would wash my mouth out with soap if I said a bad word or if I had sassed back at her made me analyze every word I had spoken since the previous Christmas. I knew what an awful taste the soap had but what I didn't realize was the benefits that the homemade lye soap had. Grandma's lye soap was great for a pre-wash to help get dirt and grime from the laundry. All you needed to do was to get the soiled area damp, rub the soiled area with the bar of soap and throw the article of clothing into the washing machine. Lye soap made the clothes come out clean and made white items whiter and brighter. Used everyday as a body soap, lye soap is good for sensitive skin. It helps with clearing acne, eczema and psoriasis. For hunters, when used to shower it helps eliminate the human scent. For hunters and gardeners who accidentally get into poison oak, poison ivy or poison sumac, lather up the area and let it dry on the skin; it will eliminate the burning and itching. This application also works for mosquitoes, chiggers, ticks, sunburn and athlete's foot. Lye soap will make your skin softer, make your hair shine, helps eliminate dandruff, and kills head and body lice. For your pets, it kills fleas and reduces dander. Grandma also used it in various other ways. She would tie a bar into and old sock and hang it near the porch to keep bugs away. The scrapings from the big iron kettle in which she made the soap, were spread around the outside of the home to keep ants and termites away. Grandpa swore that Grandma's homemade lye soap made good fish bait, and that it would keep snakes, spiders, and roaches away from the house. It was used as a degreaser when he worked on equipment. A little lye soap rubbed on the bottom of drawers made them open easier. Door hinges would get lye soap rubbed into them to stop squeaking. His favorite, however, was that it was guaranteed to help clean up the language of the children. Making homemade lye soap is a very easy process. Add lye into fat, lard or grease. Then the work begins of stirring and blending the two together. The safe part of the ingredients for making your own soap is the animal fat or lard. Lard can be purchased directly from your grocery store. Some people like to substitute coconut, sunflower oil, vegetable oil or canola oil instead of using lard. It will give a different consistency to the finished product. The dangerous part of the ingredients is the lye, which is known as a base and an alkali, caustic soda or sodium hydroxide. It can be purchased from a chemical supply house or you can make your own. Caution must be used when working with lye, as it is very caustic and will burn your skin and blind you if it gets into your eyes. Use rubber gloves, goggles, and long sleeve garments when using lye. If you accidentally get any on your skin, do not use water! This will increase the burning and damage. You must use vinegar to neutralize the effects of the lye. For more safety issues about handling visit lye @ www.poison.org. In case of an emergency from coming in contact with lye, call 911 or your local poison control center. Let them know immediately that you have been working with lye so they can give you the proper advice. Grandma's Homemade Lye Soap Recipe There are numerous recipes for homemade lye soap. Below is a very basic one that is easy to use for any beginner. Basic items needed to make your own soap: 4-6 quart Pyrex or oven ware bowl with handle and a spout. 4-6 quart glass, stoneware crock, stainless steel or iron cooking pot. A long handled heavy duty wooden or stainless steel spoon for stirring the mixture. Rubber gloves Eye Safety glasses Small shallow cardboard or wooden box lined with a plastic trash bag. Ingredients: One 12 oz. can of 100% lye 21-1/2 oz. ice cold or partially frozen distilled water 5 lb., 7-1/3 oz. (2.48 kg) lard or all vegetable shortening. Directions: Place the water and or ice cubes into the bowl, carefully add the lye to the water. Do not reverse this process. Using your stirring spoon stir carefully till the lye has dissolved. Cover and let set until it drops in temperature to around 85 degrees. Melt your lard and put into the 4-6 quart container; let cool to 95 degrees. Now you can start to make your soap. With your stirring spoon, start to stir in an " 8 " pattern. Slowly pour the lye water into the melted lard. Pour very carefully and slowly, making the flow of the lye water smaller than a pencil...just trickle it in until its all been added. Once you start this process you must keep stirring until the mix is thick like a cooked pudding. If you stop stirring it may separate. The key is constant gentle stirring. When the mix has thickened up you can then pour it into your lined box. Allow to set for 4-6 hours. Using a table knife you can cut into bars. Do not use a sharp knife that will cut into the plastic liner. Allow a week for drying time before you remove the soap from the box. After the soap is removed from the box, allow the soap to cure for 30 days before using it. This is the most basic recipe for making Grandma's homemade lye soap. There are hundreds of different ways to make it. You can add different oils, fragrances, and other items like flower petals, oatmeal, grapefruit and orange peels. For the one time when I did slip and said a bad word, having orange peel added to the soap would have made it taste much better than the plain soap. I learned my lesson! Now the important thing for you is to learn the basics of soap making and expand from there. More information is available on the internet. Soap making can become a fun and creative hobby as well as coming in handy at gift-giving time. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Are you going to any other sites for information and have you read anything, or is this your first contact? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I did find that because of how tenacious these things are they migrate from one place to another if their locale is not working for them. They started in my scalp over 2 years ago. I no longer have sores in my scalp, although some crawlers and biters once in a while. So you have to treat the whole body. You have to treat the environment as well as the outer body and the inner as well. When I saw the inner, change your diet (for many of us this is necessary, but not all), no sugars except occasional fruit, lots of green vegetables, cleanse colon, eat fewer carbohydrates in general), etc. You've probably heard all of this before. With children it is harder to all of the above, I know. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Where do you think you contracted this? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > scalp > > > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Lynn yes the lye will work for insecticidal soap and so would fels naptha, which is my favorite for insects. Here is some recipes. Spring and Fall Lawn Tonic *1 cup of fels soap solution 1 flat beer, 4 ounces of liquid dish soap, household ammonia and a 20 gallon hose-end sprayer. (*Fels soap solution is made by shaving 1/2 bar of Fels Naptha Soap into a quart of very hot water to dissolve. Add 4 ounces of liquid dish soap as an emulsifier. You can store the solution until needed. Shake well before use.) Mix the 1 cup Fels solution, 1 can of beer in the sprayer. Fill the remainder of sprayer with ammonia. For spring and fall garden spraying, add 2 oz of molasses. Spray aphids with 3 tablespoons grated Fels Naptha Soap dissolved in 1 gallon of hot water. Mix well and let cool. Spray as needed. Insect Control: Prepare Fels Naptha Solution first. (Solution - shave 1 inch of Fels Naptha bar in a nylon stocking and place it into a gallon of boiling water along with 4 oz. liquid dish soap(Ivory). Store as needed and shake well before use. It will have a gel-like consistency.) Mix 1 cup of Fels Naptha Solution with 1 cup antiseptic mouthwash (mint flavored if nematodes are a problem) and 1 cup chewing tobacco juice. Spray with a 20-gal hose-end sprayer with a golf ball in it to keep mixture mixed. Follow-up with an application of Dursban or inon, if needed. For Black-spot fungus on roses: Make the Fels Naptha Solution by shaving 1 inch of Fels Naptha bar into a nylon stocking and placing it into a gallon of boiling water along with 4 ounce of liquid dish soap (Ivory). This will keep nicely and you can use it as needed. It will have a gel-like consistency so mix well before using. For the black-spot fungus, mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon of Fels naptha solution and 1 gallon of water. Spray as needed. IMPORTANT***** In recent years soap manufacturers have added degreasers and antibacterial ingredients to their products. These are VERY harmful to your plants and most likely will burn or kill them. When a home gardening technique calls for liquid dish soap be very careful that you use only Ivory or Fels Naptha Solution. You can also use the original liquid lemon type detergent which has no additives, just be careful that it does not contain a degreaser or is antibacterial. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Are you going to any other sites for information and have you read anything, or is this your first contact? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I did find that because of how tenacious these things are they migrate from one place to another if their locale is not working for them. They started in my scalp over 2 years ago. I no longer have sores in my scalp, although some crawlers and biters once in a while. So you have to treat the whole body. You have to treat the environment as well as the outer body and the inner as well. When I saw the inner, change your diet (for many of us this is necessary, but not all), no sugars except occasional fruit, lots of green vegetables, cleanse colon, eat fewer carbohydrates in general), etc. You've probably heard all of this before. With children it is harder to all of the above, I know. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Where do you think you contracted this? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > scalp > > > > > > > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 To make my tobacco juice I use chew, leaf chew and just let sit in water, cooking may take some of the nicotine out.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 I wonder what the beer is for in this recipe. I've used Fels Naptha for year on stains that nothing else will remove. But I have no clue as to what it is. I just bought more of it at the hardware store. scalp > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Â > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 I tried making lye soap once. It didn't work. The soap never set, but stayed all globby. I used Hulda 's recipe for lye soap. She made it sound so easy, but this actually sounds like it is doable. 's recipe called for using Drano as I recall, which is lye, or at least it used to be. My mom made her own soap too, grated it to use in the wringer-styled washer. It always did melt and cleaned really really well. Believe me, we were a grubby little bunch of kids too. Some of these old timer things need to come back. We can always buy Grandma"s Lye Soap, but it is a lot cheaper to make your own! I don't recommend using Drano to try to make the soap. It won't work. scalp > > > > > > > > > > Â > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 the beer is used for spring tonic to make the grass grow, not to kill insects. Beer promotes growth, just don't use the lite beer. This is for insect control. Including a link for fels naptha ingredients, I will never use anything else now. I am a believer for cost and mold, fungus, bug killer, and one of the best stain and laundry soaps. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fels-Naptha Insect Control: Prepare Fels Naptha Solution first. (Solution - shave 1 inch of Fels Naptha bar in a nylon stocking and place it into a gallon of boiling water along with 4 oz. liquid dish soap(Ivory). Store as needed and shake well before use. It will have a gel-like consistency.) Mix 1 cup of Fels Naptha Solution with 1 cup antiseptic mouthwash (mint flavored if nematodes are a problem) and 1 cup chewing tobacco juice. Spray with a 20-gal hose-end sprayer with a golf ball in it to keep mixture mixed. Follow-up with an application of Dursban or inon, if needed. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Are you going to any other sites for information and have you read anything, or is this your first contact? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I did find that because of how tenacious these things are they migrate from one place to another if their locale is not working for them. They started in my scalp over 2 years ago. I no longer have sores in my scalp, although some crawlers and biters once in a while. So you have to treat the whole body. You have to treat the environment as well as the outer body and the inner as well. When I saw the inner, change your diet (for many of us this is necessary, but not all), no sugars except occasional fruit, lots of green vegetables, cleanse colon, eat fewer carbohydrates in general), etc. You've probably heard all of this before. With children it is harder to all of the above, I know. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Where do you think you contracted this? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > scalp > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Also wanted to add I was at tractor supply buying feed and they have the chicken poop lip balm Dr S has on her new site. The best wound care and detox bath I can think of is MMS, or chlorine dioxide. So lye soap $3.00 max MMS $20.00 max also making your own willard water with,and bathing, chicken poop balm, $2.50. Total cost $25.50. http://drhildy.myshopify.com/ http://drhildy.myshopify.com/products/americana-kit Frontier's DioxiCare products have and continue to be tested extensively for various indications, including disinfection efficacy, wound healing and toxicity evaluations. Frontier is working towards a disinfection stamp of approval from the EPA, as well as FDA approval for several medical indications. An IND is presently in progress for our Wound Irrigant Liquid at a major University Hospital. Other research projects include the use of DioxiCare technology for personal decontamination against Biological and Chemical Warfare Agents. http://www.frontierpharm.com/dioxicare-system.php http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20100198136 > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Are you going to any other sites for information and have you read anything, or is this your first contact? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I did find that because of how tenacious these things are they migrate from one place to another if their locale is not working for them. They started in my scalp over 2 years ago. I no longer have sores in my scalp, although some crawlers and biters once in a while. So you have to treat the whole body. You have to treat the environment as well as the outer body and the inner as well. When I saw the inner, change your diet (for many of us this is necessary, but not all), no sugars except occasional fruit, lots of green vegetables, cleanse colon, eat fewer carbohydrates in general), etc. You've probably heard all of this before. With children it is harder to all of the above, I know. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Where do you think you contracted this? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > scalp > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now and feels like they are nesting only on my scalp.
