What naturally kills fleas and ticks on dogs?

Some botanicals and essential oils may naturally kill fleas and ticks on dogs. Ingredients like clove oil, geraniol, mint oil, thyme, and other natural compounds can have insecticidal properties, so many natural flea and trick treatments for dogs include them. However, they may not be effective enough for heavy infestations, or they may work better as flea and tick repellents.

Do natural flea and tick treatments work for dogs?

Some natural flea and tick treatments work for dogs—it depends on which treatments you choose and how serious your biting pest issues are. Many natural treatments work mainly to repel biting insects, and this may be enough to prevent a flea issue or reduce the chance of ticks. However, if your dog has lots of fleas or you or live in an area with lots of biting pests, natural treatments may not be effective. Talk to your vet for recommendations on safe and effective flea and tick products.

What do holistic vets recommend for fleas and ticks?

Holistic vets often recommend regular baths with natural flea and tick shampoos. They may also recommend topical treatments or sprays made with safe insecticidal botanicals and insect-repelling essential oils. Many vets—holistic and regular—also recommend frequent vacuuming of floors and washing pet bedding to eliminate fleas, flea larvae, flea eggs, and other biting pests.
