The winner of our Spring Clean Up giveaway is Ashley N! Congratulations to Ashley and her rescued pups! Here is what Ashley had to say about her fabulous dogs…
“I know two very spoiled rescue pups who could definitely use these products. The shampoo would be great for them since they love splashing in the pond out back in an attempt to catch that ever elusive goose. Spunky, a husky mix, sheds year round so we can use all the help we can get when it comes to grooming him. He is also prone to ear infections so the wipes would come in handy too. The calming spray would be great for all the animals in the household since they are a bit stressed as we pack up to move. Both Spunky and Rufus, a maltipoo, love going on walks with us in the local state park so it would be great to know they were better protected from bugs. All in all, this package would be great to win! Good luck to everyone, though. Such great stories!”
Thanks so much to everyone that entered to win… I had such a great time reading all about the pups you love so much! We will be holding another giveaway this summer so stay tuned.
There are many natural things you can do to help control fleas that are safe and effective. I want to give you a little background on the flea and easy tips you can do to help control them, naturally.
An adult female flea can lay up to 50 eggs a day! These eggs are not sticky and usually fall to the ground in our yards and homes. Fleas can multiply very rapidly and you can have a serious flea infestation before you know it!
Below are 9 easy things you can do that will help ensure that you can keep these nasty critters from living on your dog and invading your home.
1. Keep your Dog Healthy
A healthy dog rarely gets a full blown flea infestation. Feeding a high quality diet with added garlic and brewers yeast is a great start to fending off fleas.
2. Give your dog a bath
A weekly bath using a natural flea control shampoo will help drown any fleas that might be living on your dog. Make sure you start from your dogs head and work your way down towards the tail.
3. Groom him from head to tail
Using a flea comb can help you trap and kill any fleas living on your dog. You can use the flea comb daily, weekly, or monthly depending on your dogs needs. Make sure you get a bowl of hot, soapy water to dip the comb in to drown any fleas you might find.
4. Use a good spray to keep em at bay.
Use an all natural flea control spray made specifically for dogs every time your dogs goes out. This will help make your dog undesirable to any critters lurking outside.
5. Make it laundry day.
This is very important! Washing your dogs bedding once a week in hot water and drying on high heat will kill fleas and their eggs.
6. Suck them up.
You can easily suck up flea eggs with a good vacuuming. Remember to concentrate on cracks and crevices in your rugs and furniture. Doing this regularly, at least once a week will help interrupt the fleas life cycle. If your dog regularly travels in your car make sure you vacuum your car as well!
7. Steam Clean your carpets
This is a great spring cleaning tip. Steam cleaning your carpets right before the weather warms up will ensure your carpets are flea free!
8. Use worms in your yard.
If you think you have a yard infestation you can nematodes, microscopic worms that prey on larvae and pupa of many insects, including fleas. Nematodes are available at pet and garden stores. Just follow the instructions and pay particular attention to shady areas of your yard where fleas thrive.
9. Mow and water your lawn.
Keeping your grass short will help the sunlight reach the ground below which can kill flea eggs with the heat. Regularly watering your lawn will also help drown the little buggers.
We think every dog could probably benefit from Spot Organics products to help them stay clean and healthy this spring. Then we realized that we could give some away to one deserving dog!

We all want our pets to be healthy and live long lives. That is why I put together this list of things you can do to make sure your dogs environment a healthy one.
1. Feed fresh organic foods whenever possible. We love these pet food companies…
2. Use a water filter or bottled water for your pets drinking water and change it daily.
3. Brush and bathe your pet frequently to remove toxic particles from the skin and coat.
4. Do not use pesticides on your lawn where your dog roams.
5. Use natural fibers for your pets bedding. Beds we love…
6. Vacuum and dust frequently.
7. Ventilate your house well to reduce indoor air pollution. This won’t work if you live in an area with high air pollution.
8. Grow houseplants that improve indoor air quality.
9. Clean your home with toxic free natural cleaners. There are many available now in your local grocery store.
10. Do not use spot on flea treatments. Frequent baths and natural flea control products will help control fleas naturally. Products we recommend…
Taking these simple steps to improve your dogs environment will go a long way to making sure your dog lives a happy long life!
