With the rain and the sun and the rain and the sun, we are expecting our cute little arachnid friends to return soon.
But wait… there are ways to protect your pet from these little (blood) suckers.
There are collars, spot-ons and tablets available to help you and your furry mate. This author finds that new-age tablets work the best for tick prevention. I am not allowed to name any brands by law, so they include Bravecto, Credelio, Nexgard and Simparica. They are all similar in their efficacy.
Bravecto is the only one that lasts for three months, so we tend to promote it.
There are other disease vectors heading your way this springtime. So make sure to check back in regularly more riveting information on parasites.
