Birth controls for fleas

MONTVALE, N.J. — An
enterprising manufacturer of
insecticides is introducing a
birth control product for
fleas.

In the past flea control
could only begin after the
insects had reached the adult
biting stage. And they can
produce an entire new
generation in 24 weeks.

The new insecticide kills

“methoprene - a youthful
hormone” in flea pupae.

It keeps the newborns
from leaving their final
larval stage and developing

_into full-grown, biting in-

sects, the manufacturer says.
The product is also designed
to control ticks, roaches,
flies, spiders and flying
moths.

An area being treated
must be vacated for two

Lasting protection is sup-
plied for up to 75 days, says
the manufacturer of d-CON
Flea Kill.

NICE, France (UPI) — A
woman knocked off 17
pounds through a weight-
loss treatment in which she
was put in a hypnotic trance
and did not eat for nearly 13
days, she said.

Adrienne Cecchini, 37, of
Montceau-Les-Hines, said
she dropped from 136
pounds to 119 while in the
trance from Aug. 16 until
Saturday night.

The weight-loss treatment
was conducted by Jacky
Nuguet, a_ self-described
hypnotist who said he
wanted to show that his
method could be used safely.

Cecchini, the mother of
one boy, permitted Nuguet
to hypnotize her Aug. 16 in a
hotel in Nice and remained
blindfolded, motionless on a
couch, and listening to
music for 300 hours.

She was given liquids but
took no solid food until
Nuguet brought her out of
the trance.

She celebrated with a
meal of tomatoes, chopped
steak and bread.

During her trance, Mrs.
Cecchini said “IT took a trip
to the craters of the moon. I

hung from a star and the sky.

opened in front of my like a
lone road.

“I saw friends, my grand-
mother and my little boy. It
was marvellous.”
