	Let me reinforce Lisa's message - PLEASE be very careful with 
pennyroyal (or any other herb you are not very familiar with). In large
or even medium doses it can be cumulatively toxic. The oil can burn the
skin. It makes an excellent insect repellant but should not be used around
pets or children at all, period.
