A review said this doesn't work for deer ticks. I read rose geranium repels ticks, but nothing specifies what types. Does it work on all ticks or not?

I started using this last year on our puppy for a natural repellant since we live in the woods and deer and wood ticks are prevalent. We were amazed at how well it worked plus it smelled nice on her collar before we used it we would find a tick at least every other day mostly wood ticks but also deer ticks that stopped with the rose geranium. We even put a couple drops in her bath water for a rinse on her body once a month during tick season

absolutely, we spray it on the dogs everytime we walk and the number of ticks they have after the walk is reduced significanytly. this is the worst tick year we've had in the thrty years we lived in the woods so any reduction in ticks deer or wood is great.

I have not tried this, but from my research it does not work well if at all. Ticks are too potentially serious to mess with a theory. My advice, stick to something tried and true. The dog would smell nice, but the risks are too great to justify my trying it.

YES! It's great for ticks. I believe it was actually formulated to repel ticks. Good luck! We love it!!

Hi, no I don't think it kills ticks its just for fleas/Lice. I'm not sure if you can get one that kills fleas and ticks you may have to get two different ones , I hope this helps

I'm not sure about ticks. We use it for mosquitos, it seems to work for that.

Yes, I bought this mainly for my dogs. I spray it all over them but don't get it in their eyes. I don't know for sure but I suspect it will repel both fleas and ticks but this product is mainly for mosquitoes. Rose geranium oil is a good tick repellent.

For ticks, I have used Frontline, Advantix and Seresto and they all seem to work well. For fleas, Seresto has worked the best for my Shin-tzu.

I found that bees are interested in the smell, but was never stung by a bee even though I wore the rose geranium all day while gardening or hiking. For me, it works well. Warm wishes, Tali

I haven't noticed that deer repellent sprays keep away chipmunks. When we had a problem with chipmunks digging up a large area of our garden and uprooting/eating plants, a small animal granular repellent did work. It was either Critter Ridder or Repels-All; sorry I can't remember which one. The liquid version did nothing, but the granular form worked, perhaps because I placed some of it into each entrance hole. Good luck!

I've repelled spiders and other insects. Haven't had the need to repel rodents. I believe in the product reviews I saw quite a few people saying it definitely worked for rodents. I would read through some of the reviews if you haven't yet. :)

I am not sure about ticks but it works great for fleas, the fleas get stuck in between the two rows in the comb so you get more than one at a time. I would assume it should work for ticks as well but I am not positive.

You might try using this type of botanical, since we do have many customer testimonials saying that our Rose Geranium helped prevent ticks.

See the other answer. I used what I bought for treating wildlife infested with ticks. My biggest problem was getting it onto the animals.

I don't think so it doesn't even work for fleas. I wouldn't think it works for ticks.

I was trying to use Repels-All to keep deer from eating my plants. Not much success the deer are winning.

I bought this kit for my trip to the southwest thinking I might encounter snakes. I'm not sure it would work for ticks, but you should try since it does have a suction action and ticks do bury themselves deep into the skin...can't hurt..let me know if you're successful. you can also google 'how to remove a tick"
