I'm looking to buy a natural flea and tick collar for Sango.
Do you have any recommendations? I'd also love to hear your thoughts on how effective they actually are, please.
(I'm planning to use it alongside his usual treatments.)

Hi there,
I also looked into this alternative as my dog has allergies and I’m not a fan of using chemicals. I bought a flea and tick collar and, honestly, I’m really pleased with it. I got it from an online pet shop that had loads of choice. I hope you find what you’re looking for!
I couldn't care less about what’s written online, you never know what’s true or false. So I wanted to try it for myself and make my own mind up: it worked well for 2 weeks but then it wasn't effective anymore. I've unfortunately gone back to the collar full of chemicals for a week now.
If someone tells you that jumping from the twentieth floor is good for your health, would you rather try it yourself instead of trusting the people writing online that it’s dangerous? If you’d read reliable information online, you would have avoided wasting your money on that kind of collar.
I don’t care what’s written on the internet, you never know what’s true or false. So I wanted to give it a go myself and make up my own mind: it worked well for two weeks, but then it wasn’t effective anymore. Unfortunately, I’ve gone back to the chemical-filled collar for the last week.
Yes, he had a flea and tick treatment about a fortnight ago (Simparica). We went for a walk in the woods yesterday with some friends and three other dogs.
Two of them had ticks on them 😣 (one of them hadn't had any parasite treatment for a while, I found out when I asked).
I've checked Sango over thoroughly and it looks like we're in the clear 🤞.
I was thinking a flea and tick collar plus something natural might be better, but based on your feedback, I'll just stick with his current treatment.
Thanks a lot.
Hi,
Are you already giving your dog any flea and tick treatments? Which one? If so, there’s no need to use a second product. The treatment kills external parasites when they bite because the medication circulates in the bloodstream.
Kind regards,
