Cedar In, Ticks Out

    Backed by research

    One of the few plants ticks will not go near.

    Cedarwood oil has been studied as a tick repellent, and the results are why it is the heart of Cedar Shield.

    USDA Agricultural Research Service scientists tested cedarwood oil against five tick species. Against the blacklegged tick, the one behind most Lyme cases, it repelled as well as DEET.

    Cedrol, one of cedarwood oil’s main compounds, is credited with much of its tick and insect repelling power, and it stays gentle on dogs.

    How it works
    The Cedar Barrier

    Ticks hunt by smell. Cedar oil overwhelms the signals they use to find your dog, so they keep their distance, and on contact it goes to work on them directly. Your dog does not hunt by those signals, which is why the same cedar that drives ticks off stays gentle on him.

    ★★★★★

    "I honestly thought a plant spray would do nothing. We did a tick check after our usual hike and his coat was clean. First time all summer I was not pulling them off him."

    "I did not want to give him the chew after what I read. This is the first thing I have tried that I actually feel good about putting on him."

    Frequently asked questions

    Does a plant spray really keep ticks off?
    Cedarwood oil is a known tick repellent, and it is the active ingredient here. It works by giving off a scent bugs will not cross, so it keeps them off before they bite. It is a real spray made for dogs, not a homemade oil mix that washes off. Spray it on again before each walk and it keeps working.
    Is it safe for my dog?
    Yes. It is made from plants and meant for regular use on dogs of any age. As with anything new, test a small patch first and follow the label.
    How often do I have to spray him?
    Before every walk into grass or woods. That is when ticks are looking for a ride, and that is when the cedar is doing its work. It is a quick step in your normal routine, about thirty seconds.
    Does it protect against Lyme disease?
    It keeps ticks off your dog, and fewer ticks means less chance of the things ticks can carry. It is not a medicine and does not prevent or treat any disease. If you are worried about an illness from a tick, talk to your vet.
    What does it smell like?
    A light, fresh cedar smell that fades fast. Most dogs do not mind it, and a lot of owners like it.
