Seresto collar for ticks?

[Animalhouse26]

I have seen those collars at a local pet store, and when I asked them about them they said they were new, But the customers that have bought them said they worked well. But, I have no personal experience.

We use Trifexis

From memory, they've been out for awhile, just available through vets only.

When I was in school, our instructors told us that while flea collars are generally useless and a complete waste of money, the Seresto collars were the only ones that actually do work.

Keep in mind, though, to follow the directions exactly. The collar has to be fitted quite snugly and you have to "re-break" the collar after swimming or if it gets wet, or it stops working. Otherwise... yes, they do work.

We use Trifexis

Trifexis does not protect against ticks.

I did some reading up on this, and it seems like it is well liked and effective. I ordered one For Wolfy at www.chewy.com for $42.99 and got free shipping since I had a few other things that I needed from them too. I like this idea better than a spot on treatment, and last Fall in NC, the Advantax II didn't even work for him. The Seresto works out to be a whole lot cheaper than Advantix too. He's not outside for extended periods of time, so I'm hoping for good results. We'll see................
