Are there home remedies to prevent fleas and ticks?

There are so many things being sold out there that are utter nonsense. I know back in the day, people used to say that brewer’s yeast or garlic works, and none of these things work. I'm sorry, just don't even bother. Some of these things are dangerous. People have a thing about diatomaceous earth. If you put that in your carpet, every time you vacuum, you're breathing that in yourself, and I don't think that's healthy at all, so I really don't recommend those things. Please work with your veterinarian to find the safest and most effective product.

There are some more homeopathic and quote-unquote natural remedies out there. The question is how effective they're going to be, and it depends on what kind of situation you're in. And again, I'm going to always recommend a prescription product for your pet because I think that will offer the best protection.

There are some. There is the Diatomaceous Earth that people use or have even heard of apple cider vinegar combinations, garlic oil, and clove oil. It helps in some cases, and in most cases, it does not, based on what people have reported, because fleas and ticks are so sturdy, and it's not easy to kill them. It works better when you use something stronger.

While there are many products on the market claiming to be holistic or natural flea and tick preventions, they have not been proven effective and may even cause harm, and the same goes for products that have been on the market for a long time. We still see the spread of diseases and the problems associated with those parasites in pets using these preventatives. Some examples include brewers yeast and diatomaceous earth. It is recommended to consult with your veterinarian for effective prevention methods.
