Protection

Hartz Nature’s Shield products are formulated with unique combinations of essential oils that all differ in their mode of action against fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes.

Some of the active compounds present in the oils include cedrol, citral, citronellal, eugenol, geraniol, and cinnamaldehyde, which all increase the pesticidal activity of our formulations.

These compounds can disrupt pheromones, break down the target insect’s exoskeleton causing dehydration, and can interfere with their physiological and behavioral functions, leading to death.
