Ticks, fleas,lice and mites are ectoparasites that cause severe discomfort in your pets.Ticks have also been fingered as a cause of lyme disease in man, so these ectoparasites have public health importance .
The pets suffer severe irritation resulting in itching and loss of hair coat and blood loss. These ectoparasites can be stopped by use of specially formulated shampoos,soaps, tick sprays and kennel sprays.
Pet owners tend to experiment with a lot of chemicals which burns their pets,and others have been so unlucky to lose their pets because of use of harmful chemicals that are hazardous to the pets,the environment and children in the household.
A client came to the clinic today with a dog with badly burnt coat and was off food .The owner admitted to using kerosene to wash the dog because of ticks. The dog had large scab areas on the skin and was in pain.
The dog was washed with water copiously followed by use of shampoo. The dog was towel-dried and then given a rub down with coconut oil. The dog was given vitamins to help with healing and appetite.
Ticks, mites and fleas can be a nuisance but employing the right method to get rid of them will ensure you do not kill your pet in the process.
When you have mild infestation, you can make a vinegar- water mix and simply spray the dog's coat and digits.
Bathing the dogs with ecto parasitic soaps and shampoo at scheduled intervals will ensure your pet is tick- free. .
Chemicals can be used in kennels to kill ticks,the use of flea collars are also advisable.
The environment must be clean and tick free to prevent re- infestation after the dog has been washed.
Grasses must be cut short and fumigation of environment is advisable.
Order your tick spray, kennel spray and other pet care products.
