[nagdu] Herbal flea/tick spray

[Tracy Carcione]

Hi Danielle.
What herbal flea/tick spray do you use?  I've been using the Cedarcide for a
couple years.  It seems to work, but I'm curious about other possibilities.

This really depends on the climate in which you live. Where I live, ticks
are common and fleas exist but are not so prevalent. I give my dog a
chewable heartworm preventative once a month and use an herbal flea and tick
spray from mid March to late October or early November.
