ENVIRONMENTAL TREATMENT

TREATMENT OF THE ANIMAL.
- Ticks on an animal must be assessed separately.
- A different travel point around the home may have been left untreated.
- A surface under belongings or in a crack indoors may have been missed.
- A newly seen tick may not have contacted a treated surface.
Distinguish where the tick was seen: on an animal, indoors or around the home. Seek veterinary assessment for problems on an animal. Keep surface treatment within the label’s scope.
