Naturally Avoid Ticks

Those tiny bloodsuckers – ticks – lurk in the grass and bushes, ready to attach themselves to your dog. Besides being annoying, ticks can also transmit diseases, so it's a good idea to take precautions – especially in spring and summer.

Biomixtur Tick Spray – Natural Tick Repellent

With a tick spray from Biomixtur, you can help keep ticks at bay for up to 2–3 hours at a time. What makes this spray special is that it is organic and free from unnecessary chemicals.

The spray can be used on both yourself and your dog, so you can both enjoy your walk with extra peace of mind. It's ideal before walks in the woods, meadows, or other places with tall grass where ticks often hide.

Biomixtur is a good choice if you're looking for a more natural supplement during tick season.

Biospotix Spot On – Natural Long-Lasting Solution

If you're looking for a longer-lasting solution, Biospotix Spot On might be a good choice. The product is applied to the neck and naturally spreads down the back.

It's a 100% natural product that many use as an alternative to traditional tick repellents. It can be a gentle solution for those who want to avoid chemical insecticides.

Lint Roller and Tick Remover

A simple trick after your walk is to use a lint roller. It can help catch ticks that haven't yet attached themselves – especially after walks in tall grass or wooded areas.

However, it's important to remember that a lint roller won't remove ticks that have already bitten. Therefore, it's still a good idea to check your dog regularly.

If you find an attached tick, it can be removed with a tick remover.

Check Your Dog After the Walk

Even if you use tick prevention, it's a good idea to check your dog after walks in tall grass, wooded areas, or thickets. No solution can guarantee that ticks will be completely kept away, so a quick check after your walk can make a big difference.

Pay particular attention to:

• Around the ears
• Under the collar or harness
• Between the toes
• In the armpits
• In the groin
• Around the eyes and snout

The sooner a tick is discovered and removed, the lower the risk of irritation and disease transmission.

Wound Ointment

If the skin appears irritated or red after you've removed a tick, it can be a good idea to apply a thin layer of soothing or healing ointment to the area.

Monitor whether redness or swelling increases in the following days. If the area becomes warm, very swollen, or your dog seems bothered, you should contact your vet.

Watch for Tick Bites

It's completely normal for the skin to be a little red after a tick is removed, but keep an eye on your dog in the following days.

Contact your vet if your dog:

• Seems more tired than usual
• Loses appetite
• Limps or seems sore
• Has a fever
• Behaves differently than usual

The sooner any symptoms are detected, the better.
