Many snail and slug poisons contain metaldehyde, which is extremely toxic and even fatal to both dogs and cats. Pets are often attracted to the smell and will likely eat the bait if it’s within reach. Once ingested, metaldehyde impacts the nervous system, resulting in muscle tremors. Pets can die from hyperthermia, respiratory or cardiac collapse.

If you discover your pet recently ate snail bait, bring them to the hospital immediately for emergency care. EEVC is open 24/7 (631) 369-4513.

You can also connect with the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435.

Although a pet’s fur offers some natural protection, their ears and noses remain exposed, and vulnerable, to mosquito bites. 🦟

Just like humans, dogs and cats can experience irritation and discomfort when bitten. More importantly, mosquitoes can transmit serious diseases and parasites, including heartworm disease.

Never use human insect repellents on pets. Always opt for veterinarian-approved, pet-safe products, and consult your primary care veterinarian to determine the best prevention plan for your furry family members.

Don't forget: Indoor cats aren't immune, mosquitoes can easily find their way inside, and even indoor pets are at risk. While heartworm disease is less common in cats, it can be life-threatening. That's why year-round prevention is key. 🐈🦟
