Animal lovers, says The Daily Telegraph, should stop calling their furry or feathered friends “pets,” because the term is insulting, leading academics claim. “Domestic dogs, cats, hamsters or budgerigars should be rebranded as ‘companion animals’ while owners should be known as ‘human carers,’ they insist. Even terms such as wildlife are dismissed as insulting to the animals concerned -- who should instead be known as ‘free-living,’ the academics, including an Oxford professor, suggest. The call comes from the editors of the Journal of Animal Ethics, a new academic publication devoted to the issue.” The journal condemns the use of terms such as “critters” and “beasts” because such derogatory language about animals can affect the way they are treated. It also contends that phrases such as “sly as a fox,” “eat like a pig” or “drunk as a skunk” are unfair to animals.

Nicci R asks: I am dealing with an unbelievably persistent flea infestation, and after 2 different failed sprays, I finally figured out that I needed the Insect Growth Regulator compound (combined with the one that kills adult fleas) as well. My question is - after
kay answers: After the premises have been sprayed, let the IGR dry (I like Nylar, btw), then you can vacuum. It will take awhile for the IGR to do its magic, how long dependent on temperature.
