Too bad the area Doctors and the insurance companies won't take this as seriously as the vets do. They all claim that there is no lyme disease in this area.

I have lost track how many ticks we have pulled off our dogs and ourselves in the last month or so. Since we have put Vectra 3D (only at vet) on our dogs we haven't seen ANY!

The ticks are extremely awfull this year. I have found ticks on the dogs already back in January even after using the k-9 advantix. Also have been picking ticks off the horses. Usually my horses never get them this bad. Yuck!!
