Problem: Article: Tapeworms must have an intermediate host, the flea, to complete their life-cycle and infest the next victim. Your pet gets tapeworms by swallowing a flea infected with tapeworm larvae or by eating a small mammal, usually a rodent that contains the worm. Flea control involves treatment of your pet, the indoor environment, and the outdoor environment where the pet resides. There are various sprays, foggers, and traps that you can purchase at most pet stores. Or you can have a pesticide professional come by and do it for you. If the pet lives in a flea-infested environment, reinfection with tapeworms may occur in as little as two weeks. Because the medication which treats tapeworm infection is so effective, return of the tapeworms is almost always due to reinfection from the environment. Consult your vet for specifics. Some medications, like Sentinel Spectrum, act broadly to protect against fleas, heartworms, hookworms, roundworms, and tapeworms. Since tapeworms begin their life cycle in your pet's feces, take care of them from the start. Clean your cat's litter box. Pick up after your dog outside. Dispose of your pet's waste carefully. Wear gloves. Use a disinfectant whenever possible. Put its waste into a plastic bag and dispose of it. Eventually the air will run out in the bag and the worms will suffocate. It is also just a public safety service. Don't spread your pet's tapeworms to other animals. Regular or anti-bacterial soap will help guard you from tapeworms. You don't want to inadvertently carry the tapeworm with you.
Summary: Control fleas. Keep your pet on a preventative prescription plan. Clean up after your dog. Wash your hands after you play with your pets.

Problem: Article: Place the mustard seed and celery seed in a medium saucepan and set the saucepan on the stove over medium heat. Toast the seeds for about 2 minutes, or until they are fragrant and lightly browned. Swirl the pan or stir the seeds continuously to prevent the seeds from burning. Toasting the seeds first draws out their natural flavor, thereby improving the taste of the dish overall. Pour the vinegar into the saucepan, followed by the sugar, garlic, salt, peppercorns, turmeric, red pepper flakes, and water. Continue heating the contents of the saucepan until they reach a boil. Once the solution reaches a boil, drop the heat to medium so that the solution simmers gently as you prepare the cauliflower florets. The solution needs to be hot when you add it, but it does not need to be at a rolling boil. Place the florets into a clean quart (liter) sized jar, packing them in as tightly as possible. Any size jar will work for this method: quart (liter), pint (half-liter), or half-pint (quarter-liter). The jars do not need to have bands, but they do need to have tight lids. Pour the hot pickling solution over the cauliflower inside the jar. Make sure that the solution seeps all the way down to the bottom of the jar, and leave roughly 1/2 inch (1.25 ml) empty headspace at the top of each jar. The headspace will prevent the glass from cracking or breaking as the liquid expands and contracts. Keep the jar on a counter or table until the solution drops down to room temperature. After the temperature drops, cover the jar securely with its lid. Do not place the jar directly in the refrigerator. The glass will be hot after you pour the hot liquid in, and a sudden shift in temperature can cause the glass to crack. Place the jar inside your refrigerator and let the pickling solution do its work. The cauliflower should begin to absorb the flavors within a few hours, but for maximum flavor, leave the jar alone for two or three days. Store the sealed jar of pickled cauliflower in your refrigerator, taking what you need whenever you need it. When prepared in this manner, pickled cauliflower can last anywhere from two weeks to three months.
Summary: Toast the seeds. Add the vinegar and other seasonings. Pack the cauliflower in a jar. Pour in the hot liquid. Let cool. Refrigerate for a few days. Store in the refrigerator.

Problem: Article: You need to use enough baking soda to cover the entire insole of the shoe. If you have big shoes, you may need to use more than 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Tilt the shoe forward and back to help spread the baking soda across the insole. You can also jiggle the shoe from side-to-side as well. Be careful not to spill any baking sodayou want there to be lumps and clumps of it. Extra-stinky shoes may require up to 24 hours. During this time, the baking soda will soak up any bad odors. It may also kill any odor-causing bacteria. Once the time is up, turn the shoes upside-down over a trashcan or a sink. Tap and shake the shoes to get the baking soda out. Don't worry if there is some baking soda dust left inside the shoeit won't hurt you. If it really bothers you, however, you can always vacuum it up. If your shoes tend to get smelly often, you can repeat this once a week. Avoid using this too often on leather shoes, however, as the baking soda can cause the leather to become dry or brittle over time. If you have leather shoes that tend to get sticky, try leaving them in a well-ventilated area so that they can air out. A dryer sheet stuffed inside the shoe can help further freshen it up.
Summary: Measure out at least 1 tablespoon of baking soda into each shoe. Shake the shoe to distribute the baking soda across the insole. Wait a few hours, preferably overnight. Dump the baking soda out. Repeat the baking soda treatment as needed.
