have ticks bad this year. which tag do you use? so many to choose from.
do you cut them down to a smaller size?
how to you attach them to collar?
Get the Y-TEX PYthon insecticide ear tags,(purple) they work great,,it doesn't say anything about controlling fleas,,but I haven't had any on mine since I started using them afew months ago,it says it controls horn flies,face flies,lice,gulf coast ticks,spinose ear ticks,and aid in control of stable black flies and small horse flies.
I just put a hole at big end then zip tie and slide collar thru,,I use a whole tag,not half like another post stated,,and none of my dogs have gotten sick from the tags,,ticks are heavy here right now,,and I haven't found a one on them yet,,
I also take a tag and zip tie it to the back of my hunting vest,,because I got tired of picking ticks off of me at the end of the night of hunting,,and they work just as well that way too,because I haven't had to pull a tick off of me since I put a tag on my vest,,I'm a firm believer in these tags,,they are awesome
