Also, around here in KY it's used for the little wolf worms cats/kittens get in their throat, we dap it on their worm hole and bam the worm goes crazy and leaves lol. Hmm....my dad mentioned dabbing it under cats nose gets rid of the colds they have because the fumes open up the airways....any more I can think of?? Hrm...around here in the mountains we used it for a number of things. Children work the same as cats as for the cold part. It comes in handy for a number of things.
it also works as a solvent in paint
