Parasite control in pets

Just like people, our pets can be at risk from tiny creatures called parasites that can make them sick. These tiny creatures can cause a lot of problems for our furry friends.

What are parasites?

Parasites are tiny living things that can live on or inside our pets. They can make them feel unwell and cause health issues.
Internal parasites, such as roundworms, hookworms, tapeworms, whipworms, and heartworms, can wreak havoc on their internal organs, leading to severe health issues. External parasites, such as fleas, ticks, and mange, can cause skin infections and other complications, affecting your pet's health and comfort.

Common types of pet parasites and the effects they can have:

Fleas  (Insects)Can cause itching, skin allergies, and transmit diseases.
Ticks  (Arachnids)can transmit diseases such as Lyme disease and cause skin irritation.
Worms  Can affect the digestive system, leading to symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, and weight loss. Heartworms can lead to severe heart and lung disease in dogs and cats.
Ear Mites  (Arachnids)Can cause ear infections, itching, and discomfort.
Mange Mites Can cause hair loss, itching, and skin infections.
Lice Can lead to itching, skin irritation, and discomfort..
Giardia Can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, and weight loss.
Coccidia  Can lead to diarrhea, dehydration, and weight loss in pets.
Fungal Infections  Can cause skin lesions, hair loss, and itching.

Hygiene Matters
