It just occured to me that some may not know what LD50 means. The numbers I
posted earlier were in fact for Rats/Mice, but LD50 is the lethal dosage
(oral in this case) for 50% of the animals tested.
On another note, while 1.75 g of pure aspirin is a lot (note that the average
dosage used is in mg-milligrams), it doesnt take a whole lot to make it
taste nasty. Thymol I am quite sure is the same way. So what ever we use to
control mites, proper usage is critical. Those "boneheads" at the
EPA/FDA/government while paranoind at times, I feel are that way for a
reason. I think most really want to help us, and protect us too.
