Parasite Control Services

Parasites feed on animals (ectoparasites) like ticks and fleas or within animals (endoparasites).

Common parasites include fleas, ticks, mites, lice, heartworms, intestinal worms, and Giardia. Parasites can be harmful to your pet's health and, if untreated, can cause fatal illnesses and may pose a threat to human health. Ticks and fleas can cause dermatitis, allergies, they can carry and transmit diseases such as tapeworm and bacterial Bartonella (Lyme Disease), to other animals and people.

We stock a variety of parasite preventative's at Sandy Bay Holistic Vet Centre.
