F.A.Q

You have noticed that your pet has a tick on it? Don’t wait and remove it immediately.
Be careful: you should not remove a tick anyway. In fact, it is important not to press on the abdomen of the tick when removing it. This increases the risk of infection for your dog or cat, if it is a carrier of a illness such as Lyme disease, or worst, Babesiosis caused by Babesia, a tick borne disease.

There are special tick removal tools for this purpose, such as the Exitick tick remover from ALZOO. The advantage of this tool is that it can catch the head of the tick as close as possible to the skin of your pet. In addition, the ALZOO tick remover is equipped with pliers adapted to the different sizes of ticks.

Using a slow but steady motion, remove the parasite by pulling perpendicular to your pet’s skin. When the tick is no longer on your pet, disinfect the skin with a suitable soap by rubbing well and rinse with water to promote proper healing.

Do not throw the tick in the garbage! It could go and harm another furry friend or family member. You can have them evaluated by your veterinarian to make sure the head has been removed and recommend testing if you are unsure.

If you prefer to just throw the tick away, be sure to flush it down the toilet or squash it with a tissue (be sure to wear gloves) before throwing it away.

To avoid finding ticks, consider using deworming products and don’t forget to check your pet’s fur after each walk. The CDC, Center for Disease Control, advice to verify in and around the ears, aroound the groin, the tail, the toes, the armpit … You can use a flea comb to be sure to not find any larvae, flea eggs or adults in same time.

As adults and children pet or hug their animal, insecticides are absorbed through the skin and can damage the nervous system. It is the same for pets.

Also, did you know that to get rid of ticks and fleas, with some antiparasitic products, your pet has to first be bitten? After feasting on your pet’s chemically treated blood, fleas and ticks die. ALZOO products repel parasites before your favorite pet is bitten, unlike other conventional flea and tick products. Laboratory tests show that the active repellant ingredients reduce both the incidence and severity of bites.
