Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

So spring has sprung about everywhere and with it comes the bugs.  I can tell you here in FL it is the fleas, ticks and heartworm carrying mosquito's.  As much as I hate to put chemicals on my buddy Case, he has to have some protection.  I use the advanticks because it is also waterproof and stays on even after swimming.  What do you all use to protect your friends?   I am stuck with the heartworm pills but would sure love to have tosomething more natural to deal with the fleas and ticks.

You know robert when we have get togeathers at the house I set out bowls of water with dawn and it keeps the mosquitos away
Wash your dog with it, its the best.
Have you ever tried Ivomec for heart worms?
No I haven't Robert, like your area the mosquitos are so prevelant here that I hesitate to mess with that one medication.  The fact that he has to take that one every month is the reason I try to do as much as possible natutrally beyond that.  Checked for ticks while on the trip and since we got home but he seems to be doing fine.  BTW, he did get a dawn bath and did well.  Because he is an indoor baby he doesn't get too many baths so dry skin is not an issue with him
I have tried a couple of drops of Ivomec on their back and it helps alot with flea and ticks.
