Stop Ticks from Biting Your Cat: Treat the House and Lawn

Your cat may get infested with fleas and ticks from her environment at home, especially your lawn or backyard. Here are some tips for taking care of these places and preventing fleas or ticks from making their way to your pet:

● You can ask your veterinarian for recommendations on chemicals to use in maintaining the household and outdoor spaces for flea and tick prevention.

● Be careful when using chemical treatments as they could harm humans and other animals in the environment. You can turn to professionals for properly applying these chemicals if you aren’t confident to do it yourself.

● Apart from going through every nook and cranny of the house, check every part of your cat’s body to prevent them from sticking to your pet or scattering and growing bigger. Carefully remove the ticks from your cat to not hurt her.
