Is There A Healthier One Out There…that Works?
How do natural tick repellents work compared to chemical? There are so many tick repellents around for dogs that it’s hard to choose which one.
I’ve been asking these questions myself this past year. What is better, natural or chemical? And, of course, how good does it work?
I myself would prefer to use natural products on my dogs since natural products would be much healthier and safer to use for all involved. Chemicals can be harsh on the skin and cause some bad reactions such as skin rashes and itchy skin.
I’d rather NOT have my dogs itching and scratching because of the flea or tick repellant that we put on them.
Plus, although the commercial and well known pesticide sprays, collars, and other tick and flea repellents are easy to use and also easy to find in the local store they may cause a lot of damage to a dog’s kidneys and liver over time.
Remember, most of these are made of toxic chemicals! So, this is why I decided to learn more about what I could use for my dogs that would be safer and still work to keep these darn ticks away.
