Bug Off for Dogs and Cats - Natural Flea and Tick Supplement

Our supplements are made from dehydrated or freeze dried whole food ingredients, so they retain quite a bit of nutritional value. For this reason, our supplements are more nutrient dense, and it is recommended to always introduce new items very slowly to reduce stomach upset.

Start by adding a small amount to your pet's food, and slowly work up to the recommended dose over the course of a week or two. Make sure the powder is mixed into the food well, as inhalation can occur during consumption.

Slowly introduce Bug Off to your pet's food, and work your way up to the recommended dosage. Going slow and steady is the key to avoiding any stomach upset.

For seasonal protection: feed Bug Off daily for 1 month. After the first month, take a break 1-2 times a week.

For year-round protection: feed daily for 1 month, and then feed daily for 3 weeks and take a break for 1 week. 

Supplement breaks are just that: a small break from taking supplements. This is important because the body will become accustomed to the dosage, and over time, the efficacy of the supplement will decrease. It will take more and more of the product to achieve the same results. Supplement breaks allow the body to rest and reset, and keeps the efficacy at the same original dosage.

Bug Off has a strong, herbal scent. These aromatic ingredients are what help to alter your pet's scent over time, making them undesirable to insects. There are several ways to help mask the scent. You can mix the powder with any of the following items: raw milk or kefir, yogurt, cottage cheese, bone broth, filtered water, beaten eggs, organ mash, tripe, or fish mash. A lot of customers have had great success with mixing the powder with one of these foods and freezing them in single-serving silicone molds. Freezing greatly reduces the scent, and most pets will have no problem consuming these frozen treats.

This product is intended for canine and felines of all life stages. It is safe to feed once babies are weened to solid food.

A good rule of thumb for feeding fresh garlic is no more than 1/2 clove per 20lbs body weight per day, with a maximum of 2 cloves for any size dog. You can safely pair fresh garlic with Bug Off.

It is ALWAYS best to speak with your veterinarian before starting any new product, especially if your pet is on medication.

With that being said, Bug Off was intentionally formulated with this in mind. We wanted to offer a safer option for pets, including those individuals who suffer or have suffered from neurological disorders. Please keep in mind that some of the herbs in the formula could potentially affect the efficacy of some medications.

First and foremost, this supplement is intended to boost your pet's immune system and reduce the risk of exposure to insects. When taking a natural approach to flea and tick prevention, you often need to use mutliple items together for the best results.

If your pet is doing well on the supplement, but it doesn't seem to be working, you can safely double the dosage. All beings metabolize things differently. What may work for one, may not work for another. Some individuals need more, and some do not. 

You can pair Bug Off with our Bug Off Spritz, as well as using other natural products such as raw amber collars, parasite dust powder, fresh garlic, treating the grassy area with beneficial nematodes, etc. I have made a blog post about my own natural regimen here: https://www.wildlyblended.com/blogs/resources/natural-flea-tick-and-heart-worm-prevention-program
