Do I need to use a tick collar if I am using Bravecto?

There's a great new flea and tick product for dogs on the market called Bravecto by MSD.

Bravecto Chewable tablets for dogs are a chewable tablet for the treatment and prevention of flea infestation and control of brown dog tick and paralysis ticks.

 Bravecto Chewable tablets protect against fleas for 3 months and against the deadly paralysis ticks for 4 months and also control Flea Allergy Dermatitis in dogs by controlling adult fleas and are a great product, but many people are asking whether you need to use a tick collar if using Bravecto.

According to the manufacturer, MSD, you do not need to use a tick collar if you are using Bravecto for your dog. Many dog owners do however prefer the comfort of using both a tick collar and Bravecto, and vets advise that this should cause no adverse reactions. For a few extra dollars, we think using a tick collar like Scalibor or Preventic and Bravecto is a good idea.

You can buy Bravecto in Australia at www.VetShopAustralia.com.au from only $38.48 and Scalibor tick collars from just $19.95.
