Ixodid ticks are a nuisance not only to humans, but also to their beloved pets.
Instead of telling you that these arachnids carry many dangerous diseases, let's get straight to the point and quickly introduce you to ways to protect yourself.
The main rule that a pet owner must learn by heart is that pets should not be allowed outside without a collar with a repellent.
Choose an “accessory” that suits the age and size of your tail – there are a great many of them available in pet stores.
The second rule is to check your animals for ticks after every walk.
Of course, due to certain reasons - for example, thick fur or the large size of the animal - it is not always possible to carry out this step qualitatively.
This is where the third rule comes in: take care of prevention.
You can treat both the pet itself and the area - if the animal walks in a fenced yard at the dacha. In the latter case, preparations with alpha-cypermethrin in the composition are especially popular due to their high efficiency.
When choosing a product for your animal, you should consult a veterinarian.
