Ticks tend to be a country problem, where infestations seem to be more of a problem in rough grazing, woodland areas. Ticks have a very complicated life-cycle and so are quite difficult to get rid of . Adult female ticks lay groups of eggs, which hatch to form a colony of young ticks. These attach themselves to grass stems where they wait for a host to walk by. Ticks gorge themselves on the blood and bury their heads into the dog's skin taking on the appearance of a wart on the skin. Never be tempted to pick them off, as this can be very painful and often the head will come away and stay embedded in the skin. Spray the ticks directly with the 'natural flea and tick spray for dogs and puppies' and watch the ticks drop off naturally. The natural flea and tick spray is ideal for dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits and guinea pigs. Can be applied to puppies over two weeks old.
