I got in to see my doctor, which I greatly prefer to seeing some one who does not know my history. We discussed my symptoms. My blood pressure had shot up really high for me. I do not have a fever, but she said I felt clammy to...

CAPirani Photography & Art @capirani (2817) • United States 28 May 24

Once again, this place I live is infested outside with fleas. This year is worse so far because this new company has not had anyone spray the lawns. But even so, it never worked past years and DaisyMae gets fleas every year here....

Who knew? Tick Bites can make you allergic to red meat?

James Higgins @JamesHxstatic (29410) • Eugene, Oregon 2 Apr 23

Not sure what time every where else, but it's already eleven here. Didn't do much except bathe my other dog. I took an advice from some to add a little bleach water on his bath, but I avoided the face to prevent poison. Ticks are...

This morning I panic because my eldest dog didn't have the appetite to eat, had to force feed him and gave him my medication. Unfortunately, despite of my weekly cleaning, those pest ticks came back on him again. I had no choice...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222285) • United States 18 Jul 19

Before I tell you about this, let me just say that these are strictly allegations. There may or may not be any truth to what I'm putting forth. I happen to think it could be possible. Last week the U. S. House of...

First time I use Shampoo and it really helps

LK2018 @Letranknight2015 (52665) • Philippines 30 May 19

Last time I gave pluffy a bath, the soap was not enough and took me two hours to remove the ticks one by one. Like I said before it was stressful. So, for the first time I've decided to buy shampoo that also deals with ticks and...

LK2018 @Letranknight2015 (52665) • Philippines 25 May 19

Wished I had better time to spend with them. But this afternoon I spent nearly two hours removing pluffy's ticks and again it was exhausting. This is not my idea of spending time and I really miss dog walking the eldest. In...

The vet finally came.

marguicha @marguicha (230334) • Chile 1 Dec 18

I waited and waited until, later than what she had said, the vet came. I am understanding about different pills for ticks, flies and whatnots. I asked her for a recipe for the next pills. Luna will have to take anti ticks and...

I think that I have gotten over my fear of bears. Everyone has been telling me that Manitoba Brown Bears are probably going to be more scared of me, than I will be of them... so I replaced it with fear of ticks. I have gotten into...

This was our only full day of the camping trip. The guys (hubby and friend) got up some time before I did in the morning. They started a fire in the pit, brewed some coffee, and chit chatted until I got up. Once I was up we just...
