Neighsayer Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Has it been approved for humans? After cutting my grass earlier this week, I found nine ticks on me. I found two more the next morning. Guess I missed them the night before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) This is greyt news! Does anyone have any experience with it yet? Are your greys tolerating it okay? Edited May 30, 2014 by Victor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissn333 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I do not have experience with it yet - we still have Frontline tubes to use up. But, the woman that has Clarice's mama has used it with both of her greyhounds with zero issues. No tummy issues, nothing.

Sambuca Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 My dogs are doing fine on it. Sailor got some loose poop from it, but nothing major. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest greyaspet Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I live in Central Jersey and the ticks are horrible this year. Our yard is mowed often and close and the dogs are getting them just going outside I am going to call my vet on Monday and ask about this.
