What is good dog tick protection for the summertime?
When someone asks, What’s good dog tick protection, you could get two different answers. Depending on who’s listening, one answer might address the need for tick protection for dogs. The other could address the best protection methods against the brown or American dog tick (among others). At Mosquito Squad of Springfield, we hear the question both ways. What’s more, we have the answer to both. We offer highly effective dog tick protection, as well as dog tick protection. Huh?
Dog Tick Protection for Dog Loving Homes
We believe that most pet parents will attest – dogs are not just pets. They are cherished family members. Tick bites are common for dogs, but they should not be considered a simple hazard of having a dog (or dogs) in the family. Sadly, our best friends are susceptible to tick-borne diseases too.
At Mosquito Squad of Springfield, we know that it is much smarter to work from a place of prevention, rather than trying to find a cure. We highly recommend following your veterinarian’s tick protection recommendation for your pet. That could be an oral prescription, topical solution from your local pet retailer, or other recommendation based on your pet’s specific needs.
TICK FACT: Did you know that even though the American dog tick will feed on human family members, they do prefer our dog’s blood? No? Well, now you do!
Dog Tick Protection for Homeowners
Whether you have a dog in the family or not, as a Northampton homeowner, tick protection should be top-of-mind from springtime through the fall. This is not simply because tick populations are growing and expanding into our region. It’s not because some ticks can be life-threatening, with only one 15-minute period of tick bite attachment. It’s not even because ticks are arachnids that give us the willies. Proper season-long Northampton tick control is a must for all these reasons and more.
That’s where Mosquito Squad of Springfield comes in.
