I've not tried it yet.
Any volunteers?

One recipe that does work (we've used it on the horses and ourselves) is mixing 1 part Dettol with one part baby oil. Shake well and wipe on.
Not cost effective though, ml for ml it costs the same as Rid.
But if you don't like applying chemicals on your skin all the time, it's an alternative that works.
I don't know about that but Put a couple of drops DD Eucaltyptus on your car rims & it will stop the cats & dogs peeing on them something to do with supreme smell senses!!
