stubby 175 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 any other chemicle. not a lover of using too many chemicals on my ferrets, anything put on the fert, gets absorbed into the skin, even frontline, most are some form of PERMETHRIN, which is a pestacide, used for killing things, relying on something in a tin, does not give you peace of mind, that your not slowly poisoning your fert Quote Link to post
