<DIV>Unfortunately NO. I still get ticks on my dogs. I make a habit of checking
them and myself frequently, as we all get some embedded ticks each year. Just
remember the ticks need to be attached something like 36-48 hours or so before
diseases get transferred. I much prefer checking and removing ticks over using
dangerous chemicals that do work on fleas and ticks both. I’m not aware of any
natural product that will keep ticks away. But I’ve never looked for any either.

<DIV>That said, I just now googled “natural products ticks” and a lot of hits
came up. They might be worth exploring in your case.</DIV>
