Why Petguard?

Most of the generic medications commonly prescribed for flea and tick removal in dogs often contain harmful chemical ingredients. These chemicals include active compounds like fipronil, permethrin, methoprene, and pyriproxyfen, which have been linked to a range of serious health issues in pets. Reports of adverse reactions, ranging from skin irritations to seizures and even death, highlight the risks associated with traditional chemical treatments.

 

Petguard Natural Spot On offers a safe and effective alternative. Unlike conventional flea and tick treatments, Petguard is  a non toxic and non sensitizing pet products. Its unique anti-feedant properties make it one of the most effective methods for repelling fleas and ticks. Upon application, these pests lose their ability to feed, ultimately starving to death without the need for harmful chemicals. Petguard also disrupts the lifecycle of fleas and ticks by interfering with their moulting and developmental phases, effectively preventing the proliferation of new pests.

 

In addition to controlling adult fleas and ticks, Petguard can prevent their reproduction by interrupting their sexual communication and mating behaviors. To further enhance its effectiveness, Petguard can be incorporated into shampoos or sprays, providing a simple and safe application method for your pet.

 

Petguard’s approach is similar to that of insect growth regulators (IGRs), which target the developmental stages of fleas and ticks, making it a safe option for pet owners looking to minimize chemical exposure. While traditional pesticides may offer faster results, the long-term safety and well-being of your pet are best supported by using Petguard alongside conventional treatments in a rotational manner.

 

By reducing reliance on harmful chemical pesticides and choosing safer alternatives like Petguard, pet owners can help ensure the health and safety of their furry companions while effectively managing flea and tick infestations.
