🍂 Autumn Parasite Alert! 🍂
As the seasons change, so do the risks to your pet’s health. Cooler, wetter weather can bring out parasites like harvest mites, fleas, ticks, and even lungworm in dogs.
🔸 Harvest mites – tiny orange pests that cause itching and irritation, especially around paws and ears.
🔸 Fleas – love warm homes and can wake from dormancy when the heating goes on.
🔸 Ticks – found in grassy areas, they latch onto pets and feed on blood.
🔸 Lungworm – spread by slugs and snails, this serious parasite can be fatal if untreated.
✅ Regular flea, tick & worming treatments are your best defence.
💬 If you're unsure about your pet’s protection plan, speak to your vet.
Prevention is always better than cure! 🐾
