Vet's Best Natual Flea & Tick Spray

JustMeLeslie · 04-25-2011, 04:36 PM

I just got this spray in and was wondering if anyone out there has ever used it before? It is made with peppermint oil and clove extract. It smells like pumpkin pie to me. I needed something that was for ticks and fleas that would not harm my cats b/c kitty cat regularly loves on Jamie and all the other products out there for ticks can't be used around cats. Does the natural stuff actually work? If anyone has used this product before or have any experience with effectiveness please let me know. Thanks.

Oops, forgot the r in natural in the title, but I can't edit the title. Here's a link to the spray in case anyone wants to see it:

I sure will let you know if it works. I got it for the ticks too. I use Advantage for the fleas, but don't have anything for the ticks that's safe for my the cats. I have never used any Vet's Best products this is my first experience with this brand. I just hope it works. I know my dogs smell good with it on though.

i've been looking into essential oils to help so i'd be all for it. Let me know how it goes. Riley is allergic to everything else and we have cats as well so i need something safe for them too.

I'm also going to have to try this, I picked three ticks off of myself this evening after our walk in Glenwood. I picked through all of Cailye's coat and haven't felt anything crawling yet.

I try and only buy natural or organic products, there's just too many toxic additives in pet products these days.

Well, this has peppermint oil in it and clove extract(eugenol) in it so it suppose to naturally kill fleas and ticks. I am not putting thier Advantage on them this month so I can tell if it's going to work. Now on the label it has that it kills fleas and ticks on contact. I don't know if it going to repels them though. It does repel mosquitoes. I saw a mosquito flying around Jamie looking like it wanted to land on her, but it didn't so it does seem to repel them. It's suppose to be safe so Riley may be able to use this.

I tell you this when you first spray it the clove smell overpowers the peppermint. It's really strong, but after it dries it smells really good like pumpkin pie spice.

I forgot to add it's safe for cats for sure. That's the reason I went with it. I couldn't find a product that killed/repelled ticks that could be used around cats. This doesn't contain any pyrethins or cedar oil. That's the problem with all of the "chemical" tick killer it all has pyrethins in it which is deadly for cats. So that's why I wanted to go natural I just hope it works.

Oh gosh yuk! I hate ticks.

Cailye didn't have any, but you did? If it want to take a look at it. I got mine from Amazon. I got the small bottle first to see if it works and if it does I will go with the big bottle next time:
