Flea & Tick Pets + Home Spray - 16 oz

**update after 1 year of use** : my dog attracted Lyme disease. I regret using natural product like this one. 1. you need to spray your dog with it every time they go out. 2. it does not kill ticks so any attachment of ticks that last more than 24 hours will expose your dog to Lyme. I no longer use this product and use Advantix II instead. It is no joke getting Lyme disease, my dog was sore at all joints and couldn't even walk. It was sad to see. Thank God Doxycycline works for my dog, but she continues to test positive for Lyme even she does not show any symptoms. Lyme bacteria is very hard to kill entirely. So whenever your dog is sick and immune system is down, the Lyme can make a come back.Again, don't buy this product and think you can get rid of ticks. It is useless against ticks.I really hate the smell - it is very strong when first applied, and it lingers for hours. I believe my dog hates it more as their noses are more sensitive. My dog always makes a run for it when I spray her down. Another downside is that you need to spray your dogs with it frequently, like daily. On the label, it says "use as needed for ongoing protection", and "safe for daily use". So, basically the manufacturer did not provide any evidence regarding how long the protection lasts after each use. As for the effectiveness, this product does drive away fleas. I saw with my own eyes that a flea jumped for its dear life after I sprayed and fluffed my dog's coat. The manufacturer said it kills fleas, flea eggs, and larvae, so I would trust that and you should change all beddings, covers, or anything you can throw into the washing machine if you spot a flea issue. Then continue to spray your dog with the product and any furniture they encounter for good measure. After all, you won't be able to see flea eggs and they are the root cause that your flea problem persists despite all efforts of eliminating adult fleas. As for ticks, I think this product is just as effective as topical tick prevention. First, most oral tick prevention requires the ticks to bite so they can die within 24 hours which is not enough time for them to transmit Lyme disease. Most topical tick prevention contains permethrin so it will prevent and repel tick attachment, but it is not 100%. I suspect the cedar oil smell in Wondercide will repel tick attachment, because I have never found a tick after using the spray that day (but not next day). But I am not 100% sure how cedar oil works on ticks. More science needed to be done. All I know is that ticks are harder to kill than fleas, but most diseases require the tick to attach for more than 48 hours. In other words, finding a slightly engorged (and likely dying) tick on your dog is mostly likely fine as it takes time for them to transmit disease. Anyway, I guess what I am trying to say is that ticks prevention is harder to achieve with Wondercide, but it gives similar level of protection as compared to oral or topical treatment, without the harsh chemicals. As of now, Nov 2023, I was not able to find any better solutions than Wondercide for my dog. Cedar oil seems to be the least toxic solution so I am going to stick with it until something better comes along.

So far, this is the best Wondercide flea product that I’ve purchased because it actually works! We are using the lemongrass scent bc the cedarwood is super strong smelling. Fleas jump quickly and disappear if you use a flea comb on dry dog fur. What I discovered is to spray this flea killer on a small area of your dog and then use a flea comb. The fleas the comb catches are dead on contact with this spray! Hallelujah! I always seem to miss a few, so I follow this with Wondercide’s flea shampoo. When rinsing my dogs, I see more dead fleas being floated down the drain. Each day I am seeing less and less fleas in the tub, so I’m praying we are nearing the end of our flea invasion. Please also see my Wondercide review on their ineffective flea collars. However, this flea killing spray and their shampoo works well. I’m about to order more.

I have a 1.5 year old 97 lb golden retriever/lab mix - has the same fur consistency as a lab.. We went camping and took our dog with us. I figured that if us humans needed bug spray to protect against mosquitoes then why wouldn’t our dog need the same so we decided to give this product a try. It has a pleasant smell of peppermint and didn’t cause any skin irritation. I took a towel and rubbed it in immediately after applying as it didn’t seem to absorb into his fur, it just made him feel really wet, which would be my only “complaint” if you even want to call it that (I was worried that with it making him so wet that he might try to lick himself and I wasn’t sure how safe that was so rubbing it in made me worry less). I did have to reapply it after swimming in the lake. Seemed to work, I didn’t notice him scratching or anything so as far as I could tell it did its job keeping the bugs away. If they could turn this product into a collar just like those bug repellent bracelets for people, that would be perfect!! Def recommend giving this product a try!

Non toxic! My dog smells nice nowDidn’t stain my white sheet I used to test on.Washed all the oil out.I have never experienced fleas before. My poor dog was getting bit and I had no idea what was under is thick coat.I thought I’d try this spray out on the balcony in case fleas scattered (which they did)). They starting jumping really high. Scared me at first but kept spraying. I rubbed it in his thick coat and made sure to cover his tail and belly.Laid him on a white sheet on the floor and saw all those dead bugs falling off!I sprayed his bed and carpet etc. I loved that the oils in the so lotion was not toxic as it was all over my hands. Actually made them feel soft.So I knew it would feel good on his skin too.I repeated the process everyday for now. Want to be sure there’s not one alive. I hear they spread quickly. So far I am very happy with this product. I plan to buy another bottle for random sprays. My dog smells nice too!
