Don't forget....your pup needs a calender to count down to Christmas!! Fill each pocket with a tasty treat. Great way to help remember to give your pup a dental treat so their pearly whites are ready for pictures! Your pup isn't food motivated or you don't want to have food out for the GOBBLE MONSTERS to eat up....how about treating them with an activity? Write down fun training activity, specific treat toy, special food topper or new places to go!

Draw one out daily to have some fun!

To round out the testing I looked at the E.P.A. registered repellants DEET ( people) and permethrin (dogs only)

DEET: Freshly sprayed, ticks moved to the opposite side of the container! A reaction I never saw before. 1 hour later they approached and diverted around the pad. In field 0 ticks on towel

Permethrin: Ticks avoided the pad both when freshly sprayed, 1 hour and even 5 days later. In field, 0 ticks on the towel.

In summary Ultrasonic : No effect seen
Essential Oil: Repellency seemed to last mere minutes*
E.P.A. registered products appeared effective.

*The strong odor associated with essential oil sprays may be a welfare concern since dog and cat's sense of smell is so sensitive.
** Clove oil is not recommended for cats, it is toxic. Unfortunately, the label didn't convey this and only cautioned to monitor cats after use.

Any products you'd like to see tested Comment below

Back from the field! Odd, but I consistently collected more ticks from the essential oil sprayed towels than the product free towels. A's towel had 8 ticks, the control 4, B 's had 8 ticks, the control 2 and for C, 2 ticks on that towel and 0 on the control.

Overall, I found the performance of these products disappointing.
