Recently I've been talking a lot about dogs and ticks, in relation to the harmful threats they pose.
The only time I have problem with ticks is when I'm bringing in a new dog into my home. When this happens, I explore some means to make sure I eliminate the ticks and make sure they don't affect other dogs in the home.
This is my most powerful tool. Infact when I bring in a new dog, my chickens gather around the dog for ticks. They also help I'm reducing ticks in corners/surroundings. Funny but much helpful.
Try these tips and you'll soon have a tick-free home.
