Should I use Hartz UltraGuard® on my pet all year round? Or just during flea and tick season?
The Companion Animal Safety Council recommends that pets should be treated year round with a flea and tick product. Fleas and ticks may be dormant during freezing winter months but can still be active on days above freezing temperatures. These parasites utilize leaf litter and even snow to provide insulation in the extreme cold.
Does Hartz UltraGuard® have an expiration date?
An expiration date is not required on Hartz UltraGuard® products. However, Hartz has established a shelf life for all UltraGuard® products to ensure a quality product.
How long does it take for Hartz UltraGuard® to kill fleas?
Hartz UltraGuard® Topicals start killing fleas within 15 minutes after application and continues to kill for 30 days.
Are Hartz UltraGuard® products registered?
Yes, all Hartz UltraGuard® products are registered with the EPA and the states, data has been provided for both efficacy and safety as required.
Can I stop using flea control once the fleas are gone?
This is not recommended. Once an infestation is under control it is important to continue using a flea and tick control product to prevent re-infestations in the future. Although adult fleas are not seen on the animal, the sub-adult stages (eggs, larvae, pupae) may be developing within the house (carpet, upholstery). To ensure full protection against all life stages of fleas Hartz recommends treating all affected areas of your pet’s surroundings.
