Embarrassed to ask, but what are foxtails....

    • Puppy
    Foxtails are terrible, we have them around here.  We spray and disk but you just can't rid of them.  My cats get them in their eyes which can be deadly.  One of my feral cats went blind (one eye) b/c we could not trap her/him to have it taken care of.   They work their way up in the paws of dogs, and can really cause havoc.

    From what I've read, they're native to California. What other regions of the country are they found in?

    btw - considering how many hits this thread has, I don't think it's an embarrassing question!! It looks like lots of people are interested in knowing more. Thanks for asking about it!
