Chilli pepper, ammonia on cotton balls or small containers, and vinegar on cotton balls or small containers. I also like the idea of a new home for the dog LOL!!!!!! My prob in CF was squirrels digging up any bulb I planted.
â¢ Cough occurs in the majority of colds and is usually more productive than seen with the flu. Sputum varies from clear to yellow-green and usually resolves within 2-3 weeks, although a lingering dry cough can persist 4 weeks in up to 25% of infections.
How Long Do Colds Last? Cold symptoms usually start 2 or 3 days after a person has been exposed to a source of infection. People with colds are most contagious for the first 3 or 4 days after the symptoms begin and can be contagious for up to 3 weeks. Although some colds can linger for as long as 2 weeks, most clear up within a week.
