Seasonal black flies are back! 🪰

If you notice small red bumps, rings or irritated spots on your pet — especially around the ears, face, or belly — they may be black fly bites. These bites can look alarming, but they are typically harmless and usually resolve on their own within a week or so.

That said, if your pet seems very uncomfortable, the area becomes swollen, or you’re unsure what you’re seeing, feel free to reach out!
