Damrod Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Anyone ever tried these shoo tags for pets or people???? http://www.amazon.com/Shoo-TAG-Flea-Barrier-Double/dp/B0021L8XBO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1272214143&sr=1-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Hi - went to the site to have a look as I am looking for something for my two as we are heading into summer and fleas can be a problem here. I read some of the reviews posted - some good and some bad - this was the last review posted. Very funny This review is from: Shoo!TAG Flea and Tick Barrier Tag for Dogs (Misc.) Absolutely stunning product. Minutes after applying several of these to our livestock, we were inside the house when we noticed a pinging sound on the windows and outside walls. When we went out to look, we were immediately hit by a number of flies, ticks and fleas which were being energetically repelled from the beasts in the paddock a short distance away. When we looked closer, the grass was rippling with small insects making their way out of the paddock away from the livestock - the small birds had a field day swooping down to eat them all. (Although we were troubled to see a flock of migrating geese suddenly veer off course and head off in almost every direction, we couldn't positively put this down to the action of the Shoo!tag tags). Either way, we were stunned that a small "three dimensional" plastic magnetic strip could achieve what the magnetic field of the entire planet could not - ie rid our animals of pests. We guessed that the key was using the superior "three dimensional" magnetic strip, as opposed to the inferior two dimensional magnetic strip and the ever-elusive, and theoretically still highly debatable, monopole-based strip. The [...] website explains how the pieces of plastic cunningly "utilize Nature's energetic principles in combination with physics, quantum physics and advanced computer software technology." Wow. And some people still say science is for godless satan-worshipping liberals? For us stewards of the planet, this device is a godsend - up to a point. While it got rid of the ticks, fleas, flies and even mosquitoes - which is great - we've noticed a near complete absence of insect life in our fields. No worms, butterflies, bees, dragonflies - which means none of the crops get pollinated, and all the birds have left the area. As we speak, the insect-free zone extends about five miles to the nearest town, and seems to be increasing by about a mile a week. It's true the livestock are the happier for it, but our car no longer starts, the computer hard-drives seem to have fried, and even radio reception is only available by climbing a nearby mountain. The kids are twitchy they can't send or receive SMS texts, and when we try to buy anything using our credit cards, the machines spit them out with a whole bunch of error messages. About a week or so back, we started to notice guys, some of them in camouflage gear, wandering around the perimeter of the property. They ran off when challenged, same as a whole bunch of other guys in black suits that seem to have moved into the area. They just lounge around in small groups at the top gate and watch our place with binoculars. When we go up to ask if they're lost, they just take off. Me and the wife are beginning to think the power of Shoo!tag's three dimensional magnetic strip, combined with the "bio-energetic" field coming off the livestock, might be causing more problems than it's solving. Anyway, five stars to the scientists who came up with this thing. I just wish it kept the helicopters away at night. The lights are really starting to bug us.

Andy Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Nope not heard of them either. . . we just use a regular shop bought flea collar, on both dogs, and if they get VERY dirty and NEED a bath them we use a flea shampoo at that time. . Can honestly say we don't have much of a problem that would warrant spending out so much on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkyries Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 never heard of them xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayjay060708 Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Never heard of it... LOL at the review! Our dogs get lymes shots and are on heart guard in the summer we also get the bug repellent from the vet. If you try it let us know how it works for you!!
