Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I apply flea and tick collars?

A: Place collar around pet's neck, adjust for fit, and buckle in place. The collar must be worn loosely to allow for growth of the pet and to permit the collar to move about the neck. However, the collar should not be so loose that it can be bitten or chewed by the pet wearing it. Leave 2-3 inches for extra adjustment. Cut off and dispose of excess length. Wash hands after placing collar on pet.

Q: Do I have to stretch the collar before putting it on my pet?

A: Some collars require that you stretch the collar to activate the insecticide generator. Always read the instructions before using. Collars tend to fit larger pets, and the excess should be trimmed to suit your pet's size. Consider leaving 1-3 inches extra to allow for some growth of your pet if it is not already full size.
