Wonderful natural tick collar discovered

My family avoids conventional drug treatments for flea and tick prevention, as well as the poison-infused collars commonly used on dogs. After several years of trying various natural tick collars, we have finally found one that works amazingly well. It's the Craveit Flea and Tick Collar for Large Dogs. It's made with a number of essential oils and doesn't carry the strong offensive odor some collars have. We live in a tick-infested region of CT, and after 6 weeks of use, we can report it works. We have found only one tick on Gus in that time and it was on the surface of his fur near his mouth soon after he had been in long grass on a sniff walk.

So glad it is working for our dog. We usually avoid essential oils around the neck because of dogs' sensitive smell and rarely have we had them work well.

Would you share what else you have tried that did not work? and prior to the 6 weeks how many ticks a day were you finding?

I agree, that's a super important attribute to look for whenever using a topical (or anything, really).

If the dog or cat really objects, it's best to avoid and not add stress.
