I occassionally find ticks on our dog. Never like I did the other day. We were at a nearby lake which is surrounded by a lot of grass/weeds. I assume she picked up what I would call a major infestation there! I have spent probably over an hour pulling ticks from around her eyes, snout, ears, paws and "arm pits." With likely over 50 ticks of all sizes removed, I am still sure there are some on her, maybe many small ones...I am just waiting for them to crawl to those more common more visible places.
So my question is, are there any decent natural methods of tick prevention?
My wife and I live in Albania (Eastern Europe) and quality pet meds arehard to come by.
I have heard about using garlic, lemon, vinegar, various oils, etc. But i do not want to really go through just "trying" things that I am not sure the outcome.
Please any thoughts on natural prevention would help!
Thanks!
