[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1016168, member: 12607"] 3mile Frontline is a complex insecticide coupled with an insect growth regulator; designed to be absorbed through the skin, concentrated & stored in sweat/sebaceous glands, and continually presented on the skin surface by these glands. ACV is...acetic acid, a very small organic acid which is rapidly utilized in the routine metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. Not going to be excreted in sweat or sebaceous secretions. And, at the miniscule concentrations most of these folks are talking about using, it's gonna have minimal effect on pH of water, much less the pH of the animal's biological systems, which are buffered to a very narrow range around pH 7.4 Again, it isn't magical - likely won't hurt, but there's no substantiated proof that it will kill parasites or repel flies. What you're smelling when you're sweating off the tequila, beer, etc., is not the alcohol, but other hydrocarbons, phenols, etc.that remain through the fermentation/distillation process - these 'fusel oils', and the dehydrating effect of alcohol by inhibiting secretion of anti-diuretic hormone by the pituitary are what cause most of the 'hangover' symptoms you feel when you imbibe to excess.
