Well, Edan and CJ have been wearing Seresto collars for 4 months now. Keiran's been wearing one since mid-May (3 months). I'm going to focus on Edan and CJ since we are at the half-way point in the life of their collars. Since, when I first mentioned I was going to use them, people asked how they worked, I figured an update was in order.
We live in a high tick area and our home is bordered by woods on 3 sides. We also have feral cats, rabbits, deer, raccoon, and other wildlife in our yard on a regular basis. We've been camping and hiking. And, of course, out a the facility where 95% of the local agility trials are held, which is where we picked up the majority of the ticks last year.
So far the Seresto collars have worked exactly as advertised. The first month they were wearing them we did find a few (3 or less) on the floor that were quite dead. Since that time we have not seen a single flea or tick.
Now, we are at the latter half of the collar's life (8 months) and as the weather gets colder fleas and ticks are more apt to seek warmth on the dogs and in the house. We'll see how well they work as they near the end of their effectiveness. I'll provide another update at that point.
Hope this is helpful to some members.
