IT works great on humans but I haven't tried it on the dog. A couple in our obedience training club own a Petland and they passed them out to us to try before putting it in their store- everyone likes it!

I used them last year, we didn't get any ticks or fleas... so I guess they work.

I did use them last year(free trial)....we had ticks really bad. It seemed to help reduce the amount, but I still think it is a gimmick.
Not sure how the magnetic field will confuse insects and make them stay away from the tag area. I called the company shortly after I started using one on long coat Kacie, and they shipped me a tag with two magnetic strips instead of one. After using the two/strip she only had 10 ticks instead of 20. My main issue with it was the fact that I had to have the dog wear a collar, and I am against collars unless they are attached to a leash. |

Jane, that's my problem, my dogs don't wear collars unless I'm off property, which is most likely where Masi will pick up ticks since I do alot of hiking with her..
I'm not sure how they work either,,all I can picture is me hanging these "tags" off the dog and if a tick landed on her,,seeing the tick go "ACCCCK I AM OFF THIS GIRL" LOL
