General Product Questions
-
How often do I need to feed it to my pet?
Our soft chews should be given daily to help your pet build and maintain deterrence against fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes.
-
How long does it take to start working?
It should take about 4 weeks of daily consumption for the full effects to kick in.
-
So after the initial 4 weeks, do I need to continue feeding the chews?
Yes, consistency is key! We strongly recommend continuing the daily feeding to maintain the natural resistance your pet has built up from the chews. The benefits of our product are only in effect while your pet(s) are given them so once you stop, the effects of the chews may go away.
-
What if I only get fleas in my area seasonally?
Since the benefits of our product are only in effect while your pet(s) are given them, it is up to you when your pet needs the flea protection. If you want the peace of mind of having deterrence all year round, then we recommend using them year round. We do have both customers who order seasonally and customers who order year round, depending on their environment and what they've experienced with fleas and other pests at their location.
-
What if my pet already has fleas? Can they take your product? Will the Natural Flea Deterrent chews kill the fleas?
As you use our Natural Flea Deterrent, the natural ingredients build up in your pet’s system and create a natural shield that helps protect against infestation. Over time, the deterring properties of our soft chews should eventually stop an active infestation, but best use of our product is in a preventative fashion, to keep pests from taking up residence with your lovely pet.
We recommend getting rid of the fleas first and then supplementing our chews to keep the fleas off your pet so you don’t have to fight an active infestation!
In the case of an active infestation, our product works best in conjunction with other natural home remedies, such as flea shampoo and flea combs. We tend to think of our product as a safe, healthy first defense that can help you avoid the need to use toxic chemicals on your pets.
Here are some natural home remedies to treat fleas and ticks that may be of use to you:

Are your products safe for puppies/kittens?
Although our product is painstakingly manufactured to be safe for all ages, we recommend checking in with a veterinarian as puppies/kittens usually have not been tested for allergies. If your dog/cat has allergies that haven't been identified - for example to chicken or grains used in our chew - they may have a reaction.
-
Are your products safe for pregnant/nursing pets?
Although our product is safe for all dogs, our product is not intended for pregnant dogs and we recommend consulting with a veterinarian before feeding our chews.

My cats won’t eat the chews!
Please don’t give up just yet! We know cats can be picky eaters, but we got a few tricks up our sleeves to offer you. Here are some tips for getting your cat to eat the chews:
- Put the chew in a pill pocket or a gel cap
- Cut up/Crumble the chew, and mix into your cats wet/dry food
- Put the chew into any kind of soft treat, or inside a piece of tuna or chicken
- Mix and dilute the chew in water, then mix the water into your cat's wet or dry food. In this case, you're creating a kind of 'chew soup', now here - you can gradually mix in more and more of this soup as time goes on. You start small (so your kitty gets used to the taste) and gradually increase it.
- Mash the chew with some canned pumpkin (for some reason this works great!)
