Well someone should be along soon with some help. We don't have a tick problem here, so I don't use anything.

Diatomaceous (sp?) Earth-food grade kills fleas ticks and other bugs It destroys the protective coating on their shell. It is safe ,even for us to eat it. You can look it up on the internet. I use it on the dogs, and sprinkle it on their beds. I have wood/tile floors-so they look "powdery" for a little while, but I figure it gets in the cracks,too. It works! @Abby&Jacks Mom

Lynn found the one I was thinking of the 'DE' but you can also look at --- go to www.dogsnaturallystore.com and you will find natural insect repellants. I subscribe to dogs naturally magazine and it has great info on natural and holistic remedies of all kinds. ---
