Then I got other goats, including a lot of babies and the collars got lost too easily when they would play and fight so I switched to those repellent drops. There are several brands and I may have used Frontline. I haven't seen ticks on my goats while using collars or drops.
That's great, thanks! I used the citronella collars last year to repel mosquitoes around their heads - they worked pretty well, but wore out way too quickly. Totally different product than a flea/tick collar tho.
I saw Frontline carries the "Extra Large Dog" size of drops for 89-132 lbs, I guess I would use 2 of the treatments each for a couple of large goats over 200 lbs.
