seven dust

Post by contender »

I know a guy that has dusted his dogs coats with seven dust for years. He claims that his father and grandfather also did this. He does this to kill off fleas and ticks. I was just wondering if anyone else has heard of this

I used to use it every year before I started using off the ground kennels. I still use it on my house dogs when needed.

I sprinkle on my dogs after each run.
Been using for 15 years.
Works great!

That's good info it is much cheaper than other flea and tick control products. I'm going to give it a try

My grandfather always used it and I use it on my dogs, really helps with the fleas. Shaker can is all I can find too, the rest is in a granular form for gardens.

Guy's and girls I use a dust that bayer makes, you can get it at lowes. It's a garden dust that has permitherin in it. I think it works even better than the seven dust. Tiger also makes about the same product. I have used all 3 in the past with good results.
