As the rainy season approaches in the Philippines, pet wellness brand Dr. Shiba has launched a new line of anti-tick and flea soap and spray for pets. These products offer pet owners a safe, effective, and innovative way to protect their furry companions from the increased risk of parasite infestations during this time of year.

While traditional anti-tick and flea products often contain harsh chemicals that can harm pets and the environment, Dr. Shiba’s groundbreaking formulas are made with exclusively natural ingredients, including citronella and eucalyptus essential oils, renowned for their insect-repelling properties. By eliminating harmful components, Dr. Shiba has created products that are both effective and much healthier to use on pets.
“Our team has worked tirelessly to develop a solution that addresses the shortcomings of existing anti-tick and flea products from incumbent brands on the market,” said Philipp Renner, Co-Founder and CEO of Dr. Shiba. “By carefully selecting natural ingredients and optimizing our formulations, we’ve created a line of products unmatched in terms of both efficacy and safety. Pet owners can now have peace of mind knowing they are providing the best possible protection for their fur babies without compromising their health.”

Ticks and fleas are not only a nuisance for pets but can also pose serious health risks to animals and their human families. These parasites can cause skin irritation, allergic reactions, and anemia in pets and can even transmit dangerous diseases like Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, and tapeworms. Moreover, ticks and fleas can easily spread to humans, putting entire households at risk.
While ticks and fleas prove to be a year-round problem, the warm and humid conditions during the rainy season, which typically lasts from June to November in the Philippines, create an even more ideal environment for ticks and fleas to thrive and multiply rapidly. This makes it crucial for pet owners to take proactive steps to safeguard their pets from these dangerous parasites.

To use the products, pet owners can lather their pets with the anti-tick and flea soap during bath time, allowing them to sit for a few minutes before rinsing thoroughly. The spray can be applied directly onto the pet’s coat, focusing on areas where ticks and fleas typically hide, such as the ears, armpits, and groin. Regular use of the products, combined with proper hygiene and environmental control measures, can significantly reduce the risk of tick and flea infestations.
Dr. Shiba’s anti-tick and flea soap and spray are now available for purchase online at dr-shiba.com, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Pawssion Project, a local animal rescue organization.
