In other words the sprays we all use for mosquitos etc. It comes in different fragrances (non delightful despite the label), but...

1. What shots do you recommend for Bali? I already got my Hep A/Hep B. My reading tells me that I also need typhoid. 2. Re: mosquitos day and night Do I really need to cover up completely and put DEET on my hands and face whenever I go outside? 3. My research tells me that malaria pills...

We have no pets, and our home is suddenly full of fleas!!! What do we do??!!! We live in a villa and I think the fleas are coming from the garden and probably the stray cats and luaks thats come in and out of here. This is terrible! My ankles and feet are all bitten up, our home is an open air...

Is there any clear definition between a house and a villa? I have seen people selling 'villa' which to me is no better than a cramped townhouse with a small fish pond that was turned into a plunge pool. Is there any minimum area for a property to be qualified as a villa?

I am looking for suggestion about fogging, price and safety? garden and open area in my house really give all the mosquitos place to partying. Thanks a bunch.

Does anyone know where I can get natural (ie no DEET) wrist bands or patches to repel Mosquitos in Bali? I've heard they are available in Singapore but am wondering if they can be bought here.

Does anyone know were I can buy Pyrethrum Natural insect spray or any other natural spray?

I'm wanting to get my villa fogged but have two small children and do not like the idea of the chemical being sprayed around the house. Is there a company in Bali that spay with a natural product, or is there any where that sells natural sprays that I can put into a machine and spray myself?
