A recently received mail order catalogue has the following item at $59.95:

"The Safer, Sonic Flea Collar ... rids your pet of fleas in 5 days or less
with no chemicals, poisons, or extra effort. ... collar around your pet's
neck, and wherever it goes, it moves in a 4 ft. circle of sound that fleas
and ticks absolutely hate. ... 

Sorry, state laws prohibit sales to Colorado or Indiana residents."

Does anyone on the net know anything about this, and why it has been
ruled illegal in those two states?
