β€” Sonja

"We put this collar on our cat at the beginning of spring. She went all season with not one flea! I love that it is does not use smelly, toxic or harsh chemicals but is just as effective."

β€” Kelsey

"Don’t waste your time. The only pros are that it smells nice and lasts a while, but it does nothing against fleas. Our cats were not spared, so I needed to get a doctor’s prescription for Selarid."
