Tick threat

[albythereforyou]

A month ago I got some cedar oil based tick/ bug repellant / killer for both wifey and me and the doggie..

so far so good. Cedar oil is safe for animals/ people / but kills most bugs on contact, and you get to smell like a pine tree.

the stuff is got is called cedarcide. I take my dog trout fishing with me all the time, last month I was pulling 4-10 ticks off her every time. I now spray myself and her down before we go out, and only 1 tick on her in the last 2 weeks, trout fishing probably 3x a week....

DEET and permethrin scare me as much as lymes, i have way too much cancer in my family and my wifes family, we try to live as clean and natural as possible...

Fish Raptor, they already are becoming immune to tick meds. Our boxer faithfully gets his monthly dose yet at a recent checkup the vet said he had a tick borne disease which was treatable. I said we give him his monthly preventatives, how could this be. She said no matter what's used to prevent or deter them, human or animal, ticks have shown they will eventually build up a resistance.
