My cat might swat fly if it landed on her nose, but is about it!

We have a spray can, and I figure if it is okay for the pets it is okay for me. ]]> Thu, 03 Dec 2009 09:47:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30187&PID=859249&title=insect-spray-dispensers#859249 <![CDATA[Insect spray dispensers : Haha Rubysoho - I do the same...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30187&PID=858420&title=insect-spray-dispensers#858420 Author: Itchy_feet

Haha Rubysoho - I do the same with my cat - I thought I was the only loopy one to do it It's so funny when he sees a fly he can't reach - he comes to find me so I can lift him up... he gets so excited!

hehe ditto Itchy_feet. When our cat was a kitten I trained him to catch and eat flies, moths, spiders etc. Now he loves it.

We work as a team if he can't reach. I hold his back legs and support him under his chest and move him round after the insect, that leaves his front legs free to attack! Then he gobbles whatever he catches so there's no clean up either ]]> Wed, 02 Dec 2009 12:53:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30187&PID=858221&title=insect-spray-dispensers#858221 <![CDATA[Insect spray dispensers : I don&#039;t need one cos my cat...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30187&PID=858164&title=insect-spray-dispensers#858164 Author: Itchy_feet

I have wondered about this but not worth taking the risk to not use coz we get mossies up here (and ants blurgh) and there is the risk of malaria up here in North QLD.

Never thought of it to be honest! Used it with both all the way through but only on the lowest time dose. BTW both my kids are fine.

I started a thread on the topic of these things a while ago, you might find it useful Here's the link.

The back of the can is not much help but I kept ours to a minimum when I was pregnant. I googled for info on this just yesterday as I'm cautious about using it round our 3 monther...not much useful info out there unfortunately. It's mostly people raving about it purely because it's natural (like natural somehow = safe). ]]> Sat, 28 Nov 2009 11:49:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30187&PID=854369&title=insect-spray-dispensers#854369 <![CDATA[Insect spray dispensers : i never used ours while pregnant....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30187&PID=854260&title=insect-spray-dispensers#854260 Author: _SMS_
