Anyone know if this is effective at repelling ticks?

My daughter still got lice. I still use it. My daughter is super susceptible. I use coconut oil and tea tree oil with lavender oil as well.

I did find a tick on one of my kids last summer after he'd been using this about 9 months. Maybe it was a fluke and he would have had more without it.. hard to say!

The Preventic collar works on ticks. The active ingredient works against ticks.

I have used this product and it does help, however the Precor makes it last and more effective. I have found that keeping down on the grass of surrounding areas and keeping my animals up on their Confortis (flea) pills is the most beneficial. The ticks are the worst this year(in the south), but I have had flea issues that I combatted them with this product and it worked.

I have found a tick (not embedded yet) on my son while he was using this shampoo on a daily basis. I don't think ticks are repelled by the same scents as lice, as a previous responder also said.

It's been very effective as I am in a heavily wooded area. I usually try and treat every six weeks. I highly recommend it against flea and ticks.

I thinks. It says kills ticks and fire ants on contact. I use it to kill fleas

We used this for fleas exclusively. We have an indoor cat and someone brought the fleas in. It worked wonderfully for the flea problem. Unfortunately I don't know how well it would work for ticks. I would imagine it would work great at killing existing ticks but not sure how long it would prevent new ticks. I think you can reapply every two weeks safely.

I have read a few things about DE and exoskeletons but I don't think I would trust it as the sole prevention of ticks. You would have to cover your whole lawn and as soon as you get a little rain or even dew the DE starts to dissipate.

I've repelled spiders and other insects. Haven't had the need to repel rodents. I believe in the product reviews I saw quite a few people saying it definitely worked for rodents. I would read through some of the reviews if you haven't yet. :)

I use it to repel Mosquitos on my dogs. I spray them and the whole area around them and inside their dog house. Once it starts getting to high 80's we spray them every nite. They've never had fleas or ticks as long as we use it like I said.

If you use this on the animals skin it may irritate, I would think that you would have to dilute it in another carrier oil. I don't know if it would deter ticks or not. You dog would smell great though.

I'm sorry, I haven't had occasion to use it with ticks, so can't help with that. This product has really lived up to its reputation with fleas, and I' ve used the spray for my basement with excellent results. Based on their other products, I would trust it to work on ticks.

Sorry, I have an inside dog and she only catches a flea every now and then. The flea control with this product is excellent but can not say how well it would work for ticks.

It is formulated to repel insects, however we have not received any feedback regarding ticks so I could not honestly say how effective it would be for that.

Yes. We use it to repel gnats and mosquitoes. Unless we're headed into tick territory it's all we use.

Nope. My wife has this and we've used it on the dogs as well as us, and it doesn't phase ticks or mosquitoes one little bit. We get ate up, and still have to pull ticks off the dogs.

I only used it when going for walks in a nature trail. Stopped using it because dog came home with ticks. works on some dogs, doesn't work on others
