For inexpensive flea prevention blend equal amounts of dried chamomile and dried pennyroyal. Stuff the mixture into homemade fabric bags. Place these pillows in kitty's bed, on their favourite windowsill, floor area, or other popular spots. It is a refreshing, chemical-free way to keep the fleas away from our precious pets. (Pennyroyal can be purchased at the health food store, usually in bulk.)
