One year I gave my boys these garlic bagel treats, every couple weeks I would sprinkle a small amount of granulated garlic powder on their food and they would get a treat made from garlic. That year I did not use Frontline at all and they had no ticks ever. I might just go back to doing that, garlic in small amounts every few weeks. It is not poison, and they did not have adverse reactions to it and it seemed to have worked! |
Revolution works for dog ticks, but not deer ticks (the carriers of Lyme's disease). We use Revolution on Bella, and there are no side effects, other than her being itchy for about 10 minutes after we first apply it. We hold her still and allow it to dry on her skin, and that seems to help.
