Some methods you can turn to prevent ticks from bothering your pet are tick powders and sprays.
If you use tick powders or sprays, be sure you have read the label carefully and use the product correctly. Ensure that your chosen product is specifically for cats and is proven to be effective against ticks and fleas. Use tick powder sparingly and rub it slowly into your pet’s skin.
Tick powders need to be applied once each week and can be put on your cat’s favourite spots in the house. Tick spray can be applied between shampoos and is recommended if your cat frequents wooden areas. You have to keep the powder away from your cat’s face to avoid getting in the eyes or getting inhaled and causing further irritation, but tick sprays can be carefully used around the face.
