Keep Your Pets Safe from Parasites All Year Round

As the weather warms up, both pets and parasites become more active. Increased sunshine and humidity create the perfect environment for fleas, ticks, and other parasites, making it crucial to stay on top of your pet’s parasite protection.

Common Parasites That Affect Pets:

Fleas: Small, reddish-brown insects that feed on blood and cause itching, skin irritation, and even anemia. Fleas can also transmit tapeworms.
Mites: Invisible to the naked eye, mites feed on earwax and skin oils, causing skin irritation and infection. In severe cases, mites can lead to mange.
Worms: Intestinal worms like roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms are common in both cats and dogs. In severe cases, infestations can be life-threatening.
Ticks: While New Zealand doesn’t have paralysis ticks, our local ticks can still cause skin irritation, anemia, and even abscesses.

Why Prevention Matters:

Protect Your Pet’s Health: Parasite prevention is key to keeping your pet healthy and safe from dangerous complications.
It’s Easier Than Treatment: Preventing parasites is simpler, faster, and less stressful than treating an infestation. For example, a single female flea can lay up to 50 eggs per day!

Choosing the Right Protection:

Find What Works for You: Options like oral medications, topical treatments, and collars are available. Choose what best fits your pet’s needs and your lifestyle.
Tailored to Your Pet: Whether your dog loves swimming or your cat refuses pills, there’s a solution that fits your routine and keeps your pet protected.

Don't wait—protect your pet today with our tailored parasite prevention solutions.
