🐾 🐕 🐈⬛ IMPORTANT Public Safety Announcement 🐾 🐕 🐈⬛
Please !
Do you use “Seresto” brand flea collars on your pets? If so, PLEASE read this important safety announcement revealing their investigative reports findings that conclude this brand of flea collars has caused DEATH in over 1,600 pets and harming nearly 1,000 humans. Here’s a small excerpt, click on link for full story. 🐱 🐶
On March 2, USA Today, Center for Biological Diversity and Midwest Center for Investigative Reporting published the shocking results of their investigation:
The popular Seresto brand flea collar, with its frequent television ads, has been connected to the deaths of 1,698 pets from the time it was first introduced in 2012 through June 2020.
Seresto flea collars excrete the pesticide tetrachlorvinphos for up to eight months, which is toxic to many pets. According to documents the investigators obtained, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) received more than 75,000 incident reports related to the collars—including almost 1,000 involving human harm—as of June 2020, but did nothing to inform the public of the risks.
