The bacteria that cause Lyme disease is found in the saliva of a tick and enters an animal via a tick bite. Because of this method of transmission the Tick Bite Oil will not prevent Lyme disease. The primary purpose of this remedy is to reduce itchiness and irritation at the site of the tick bite and by doing this reduce your pet's scratching that may lead to infection at the site of the tick bite. Dogs have immune systems that make them very resilient against tick related illness, contrary to all the fear out there. We recommend that you support your pet's immune system with a healthy, whole food diet (read more in our article How to Feed Your Dog) and provide additional immune system support during tick season in your area using our Herbal Protection Drops. By following these suggestions you will be supporting their health in a safe and natural way. And by doing this your dog or cat will avoid the dangerous neurotoxins found in flea and tick pesticide products that we feel contribute to so many chronic health conditions we see in our clients' pets every day.
