Why Regular Spot-On Parasite Prevention is Important for Your Pets

As a dedicated pet owner, you want nothing but the best for your furry friends. Ensuring their health and comfort is a top priority, and one of the most effective ways to achieve this is through regular spot-on parasite prevention. For dogs, cats, and rabbits, this means using high-quality products like Wagg & Purr Teal (containing selamectin) and Orange (containing imidacloprid and moxidectin).

Why Spot-On Treatments?

Spot-on treatments are easy-to-use topical applications that provide comprehensive protection against a wide range of parasites. These treatments are absorbed through the skin and spread across the pet's body, targeting parasites such as fleas, heartworms, and intestinal worms.

The Benefits of Teal (Selamectin)

Teal, which contains selamectin, is a versatile product that offers protection against a variety of parasites. It’s effective against fleas, ear mites, and certain types of mange. Selamectin is also safe for use in puppies, kittens, and even rabbits, making it a go-to choice for multi-pet households.

The Advantages of Orange (Imidacloprid and Moxidectin)

Orange, which combines imidacloprid and moxidectin, provides robust protection against a wide array of parasites. Imidacloprid effectively kills fleas, while moxidectin tackles heartworm, hookworm, and roundworm infections. This combination ensures comprehensive coverage, keeping your pets safe from some of the most common and harmful parasites.

Supplementing Spot-On Treatments in Tick-Prone Areas

While Teal and Orange offer extensive protection, pet owners in tick-prone areas may need to take extra precautions. Certain ticks, like the paralysis tick, are not always covered by these products. In these regions, it’s crucial to supplement spot-on treatments with additional tick control measures or consider using alternative products specifically designed to target ticks.

Why Choose Wagg & Purr?

Understanding Outbreak Peaks

Parasite outbreaks tend to peak during certain times of the year. Fleas, for instance, are most active during the warmer months, while heartworms are a year-round threat in many areas. Regular use of spot-on treatments is essential to keep your pets protected during these peak times and beyond.
