Research conducted in 2003/2004 documented and validated (in a non-experimental way) ethnoveterinary medicines used by small-scale, organic livestock farmers in British Columbia (BC), Canada. Interviews were conducted with 60 participants who were organic farmers or holistic medicinal/veterinary practitioners. A workshop was held with selected participants to discuss the plant-based treatments. This paper reports on the medicinal plants used for fleas in cats and dogs. Fleas and flies are treated with Artemisia vulgaris L. (Asteraceae), Citrus x limon (L.), Juniperus communis L. var. depressa Pursh. (Cupressaceae), Lavandula officinalis L. (Labiatae), Melissa officinalis L. (Lamiaceae), and Thuja plicata Donn ex D. Don (Cupressaceae). All of the plants used have insecticidal activity. Ear problems are treated with Achillea millefolium L., Calendula officinalis L., and Helichrysum angustifolium (Roth.) G. Don. (Asteraceae), Allium sativum L. (Alliaceae), Berberis aquifolium Pursh./Mahonia aquifolium (Berberidaceae), Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (Fabaceae), Lobelia inflata L. (Campanulaceae), Matricaria recutita L., Melaleuca alternifolia L. (Myrtaceae), Origanum vulgare L. (Labiatae), Ricinus communis L. (Euphorbiaceae), Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr. & L. M. Perry (Myrtaceae), Thymus vulgaris L. (Lamiaceae), and Verbascum thapsus L. (Scrophulariaceae).
2003年至2004年开展的研究记录并验证了（以非实验方式）加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省（BC）小规模有机畜牧养殖户所使用的民族兽医药。对60名有机农场主或整体医学/兽医从业者进行了访谈。与部分参与者举办了一次研讨会，以讨论基于植物的治疗方法。本文报告了用于猫和狗跳蚤治疗的药用植物。跳蚤和苍蝇使用艾蒿（菊科）、柠檬（芸香科）、垂枝杜松（柏科）、薰衣草（唇形科）、香蜂草（唇形科）和西部红柏（柏科）进行治疗。所有使用的植物都具有杀虫活性。耳部问题使用蓍草、金盏花、窄叶蜡菊（菊科）、大蒜（葱科）、俄勒冈葡萄/俄勒冈小檗（小檗科）、光果甘草（豆科）、北美山梗菜（桔梗科）、母菊、互叶白千层（桃金娘科）、牛至（唇形科）、蓖麻（大戟科）、丁香（桃金娘科）、百里香（唇形科）和毛蕊花（玄参科）进行治疗。
