With the recent circulating article regarding a popular flea and tick collar causing over 1,000 pet deaths, we’ve decided to do a round up of our favorite natural flea and tick products. Just in time for Spring!
Please note, we cannot attest to these working 100% of the time and we ALWAYS suggest you give your pets a once over to check for ticks and fleas after spending time outdoors.
Our two personal favorites:
Bug Zone (formally known as Shoo Tags)
https://0bugzone.com
These are tags with a magnetic strip that create a bug barrier for up to three months. The science behind this is quantum physics-based. We have tried these and they really work! They are 100% chemical-free.
Wondercide
https://www.wondercide.com/collections/dogs-flea-tick-spray
These are sprays made with all-natural and plant-based ingredients. We personally love the rosemary flea and tick spray. Wondercide also offers a spray for your yard, which we have also used and given a thumbs up.
Natural products we have not tried:
Kin & Kind
Another spray made with all natural ingredients.

As always, be sure to read all instructions and safety guidelines for any products you will use on your pets. Check for age requirements and any usage restrictions. Last, never combine multiple flea and tick products on one animal.
