Title: Re: Ticks? What can I do? Post by: halfbreed on May 28, 2013, 11:03:56 am yes it helps , just like fleas and lice and all blood sucking parasites when they feed they die . I posted some studies done on it in india and England on another site last year . but the doses where larger than our worming dose to get any good results . but I don't have a problem with them in the yard or kennel buy keeping the grass cut short and spraying [ religiously ] with permethrin 10% and martins I. g. regulator . ticks love belly high grass to climb up on and hitch a ride on a host . spectrocide with the hose end bottle applied first is a good step then keep the permethrin on a bi-weekly scedual with the martins and you should be good to go . dip dogs , or spray permethrin on them as well regularly . cheapest AND MOST EFFECTIVE program I have found all summer don't cost me more than 50 to 60 dollars . and that covers a bunch of ground and dogs .
