After finding a tick bite last year, my vet has me keep Ledum (or Lycopodium...can't remember but you can do a search online) on hand to give to prevent lyme disease.
I found a tick the other day on sparks (walking around on his hair). We live in a very cold climate and I am very surprised. I am now goign to put a t-shirt on him whenever we go on trail walks and I sprinkle Neem powder especially on his head and feet. I then do a very good brushing when we get home.
