Fleas, ticks and mosquitoes are more than an itchy nuisance – they can carry and transmit potentially harmful bacteria, viruses and even tapeworms to your cat or dog.
The traditional veterinarian industry’s answer to the growing flea and tick crisis is to use harsh chemical-laden products. These products can contain one or more potentially hazardous ingredients, including proven neurotoxins and one officially classified as a “Group C – Possible Human Carcinogen.”
The ingredients in regular flea and tick repellent products can work their way to your pet’s bloodstream and organs, sometimes within minutes of application. Dr. Mercola’s flagship pet pest repellent product, Flea & Tick Defense, provides a worry-free alternative that doesn’t rely on harsh, potentially hazardous chemicals.
Based on a formula created in the Amazon rainforest, where fleas, ticks and mosquitoes are a way of life, Flea & Tick Defense uses a special blend of “pet-friendly,” yet “pest-unfriendly” natural Brazilian oils. This unique formula:
- Contains a rich blend of oils, including Lemongrass, Cinnamon, Sesame and Castor Oils, expertly blended and balanced with purified water.
- Is designed for short-term use, and for best results, reapply every two to three days, and after swimming, bathing or exposure to heavy rain.
- Is ideal for protection during an occasional walk in the woods, day hike or weekend camping trip.
Provide your dog or puppy with the pest repellent protection he or she needs with Flea & Tick Defense, alone or combined with our other high-quality herbal pest repellent products. Order your supply today!
