With cities ranging from the northern tropics to the central deserts and chilly southern shores, Australia is such a vast mainland that it would be impossible to see the entire country and experience all it has to offer, in a single trip.

Kill Ticks on Dogs. A pesticide product that kills ticks is known as an acaricide. Acaricides that can be used on dogs include dusts, impregnated collars, sprays, or topical treatments. Some acaricides kill the tick on contact. Others may be absorbed into the bloodstream of a dog and kill ticks that attach and feed.
Ticks can transit serious diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, so it is wise to do whatever we can to keep them off our dogs. This page looks at the danger of ticks to dogs. It also shows you how to remove ticks from your dog and how to use herbal remedies to repel ticks. Unlike other parasites, dog ticks do not reside permanently on our four-legged friends. They just hitch a ride, get some free meals (blood), and then fall off to lay eggs.
