from FRONTLINE PLUS, Australia's #1 flea and tick treatment for dogs *2 Now available at: So how can you help prevent tick paralysis? Not all flea control products are the same. In fact, only a few of these products also control ticks. FRONTLINE PLUS ® kills fleas and controls paralysis ticks on dogs. FRONTLINE ® SPRAY also kills fleas and controls paralysis ticks on dogs but in addition it is the ONLY product on the market that controls paralysis ticks on cats. Using a tick control product is important, however you also need to ensure you are applying it frequently enough to have effect. Ticks have a thick shell and once they get on an animal, they generally find a suitable area to attach and remain there. In order to effectively kill ticks, FRONTLINE must be used more frequently than if you are just using it for flea control. • FRONTLINE PLUS must be applied to dogs every 2 weeks. • FRONTLINE SPRAY must be applied to dogs and cats every 3 weeks. It is also important to search your pet every day for ticks. Remove any ticks found immediately and seek veterinary advice to see if your pet requires treatment. Further information on tick control, including videos on how to apply FRONTLINE and how to search for ticks can be found at www.frontlineplus.com.au Is your pet protected against deadly ticks? We all know that paralysis ticks can cause our pets to become unwell and sometimes this can be fatal. However, recent research has shown that your pet might be more at risk than you realized. • 60% of dog owners who live in a tick area are not aware that they do 1 • 88% of dog owners in tick areas are either not using a tick control product or are using one but not frequently enough to prevent tick paralysis 1 Paralysis ticks are found along on the eastern seaboard of Australia and though cases spike in spring and summer, tick paralysis can occur in some areas at any time of the year. If you are unsure as to whether you live in a tick area or what the risk is to your pet, speak to your local veterinarian. You need never miss a treatment again.
