Bio Spot

[Joe]

I'm familiar with the name, but I really don't know anything about Bio Spot. I came across it at Fleet Farm the other day and a 3 months supply costs around $8.... sure is tempting. I'm just wondering why it's so cheap? or better yet why is Frontline so expensive?

I'm going to do a little research, but any info from Bio Spot users would be appreciated.

Becareful with these products. I stopped using all the chemical products as I have lost a dog to these kinds of flea products. I have alot of dogs in my kennel and for the last 17 years have used garlic pills and brewers yeast It has worked great if you would like more info please ask.

I'm very interested. I've always been concerned about using these chemicals, but I guess I didn't realize there was an alternative.

One of my dogs got lymes a few years back and that was a frieghtening experience. Ever since then I use Frontline when the hunting season rolls around.

If you are going to use a chemical I would use frontline. They seem to be pretty safe.

As for the garlic if you talk to the old time loggers here in our neck of the woods they say eat lots of garlic it keeps the ticks and mosquitos away.

I give my labs , chessies and shorthairs 1 garlic oil pill (the odor kind) odorless doesn't work and 3 brewers yeast tablets a day starting in March through hunting season. We still get some ticks  but just go over your dog though when you are done hunting for the day. I also spray a little Repel sportsman  on around the collar and leg area for added protection.

I strictly use Frontline, a friend of the family is a vetrenarian from the UP.
She spent many years researching the different brands and found the Frontline to have the least adverse chemicals in thier products.
She also did find some of the "old timer" remidies to work as stated above.
