The Importance of Flea, Tick & Heartworm Prevention

Preventing fleas, ticks, and heartworms is crucial for your pet’s health and comfort. Here are some reasons why prevention is essential:

  • Ticks can transmit serious diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever
  • Heartworms can be deadly if left untreated, causing damage to the heart, lungs, and other organs
  • Prevention is often more affordable and less stressful than treating an infestation or infection
