    Tickaway Tick COllar?

    I just went to a groomer because we found ticks all over our little guy & he did NOT like us removing them & even wanted to bite us.  When we went to the groomer & I told her he needed a muzzle, she did not want to remove the ticks because she was the only one working & wouldn't be able to hold him down alone.  So...she had my buy the Vet-Kem Tickaway Tick Collar & said it would kill the ticks & make them fall off.  It was only $5 so I just bought it, but wanted to know if anyone else had used it & what they thought about it.

    Natural Chemistry's De Flea shampoo causes ticks to detach, if it's left on for 5-10 minutes, in my experience. I haven't ever used a tick collar for ticks.

    my understanding about tick collars is that the tick has to be in pretty close proximity to the collar for it to be effective. so if there are ticks on his hind quarters, those ticks may not be affected.
