I'm sure that other areas are having the same experience, but the ticks have been horrendous in Central Virginia this spring. I've been using Frontline Plus on Luna all winter, as there was never a point where the ground actually froze for more than a day or two. The main place that I find the ticks are between her toes. Most of them are already dead, I would assume due to the Frontline, but some of them have been alive, like the little pin-head-sized tick I pulled off of her this afternoon. I am starting to have a rather macabre collection of ticks in baggies with labels stating the date and the location on her feet where they were found!
My question is, are there any products that you use that would help with the ticks between the toes (and is the Frontline Plus not reaching those areas making them more prone to live ticks...if that makes sense)? I don't really want to go the route of a tick collar, because I don't like the idea of her wearing one for months on end.
Also, do any of you spray your yard for fleas and ticks? What products have been successful for you? I cringe at the idea of pouring chemicals onto my lawn, but am also worried about what this summer will hold since the spring has already been so bad with the creepy-crawlies!
