Useful Information

One collar per animal to be fastened around the neck. Remove the collar from bag directly before use. Unroll collar and make sure that there no remnants from the plastic connectors inside the collar.

seresto dog collar instructions

  1. Insert end of the collar through the buckle. Adjust the collar around the animal's neck without tightening it too tight or leaving it too loose.
  2. As a guide, it should be possible to only insert 2 fingers comfortably between the collar and the neck.
  3. Pull excess collar thru the loop(s). Collar length of greater that 1 inch (2 cm) beyond the loop(s) should be cut off unless it is on a growing puppy, where some additional length may be needed for adjustment as the animal grows.
  4. After application of the collar, three reflector clips may be fixed permanently to the collar to increase the animal's visibility in the dark. Take the clips out of the bag. The clips should be evenly distributed on the non-overlapping part of the collar. The clips are correctly applied when a clicking sound is heard. For safety reasons once the reflectors are fixed to the collar the clasp closes permanently and cannot be re-opened.

Video Example of Collar Application

The collar should be worn continuously for the 8 month protection period. Check periodically and adjust fit if necessary, especially when puppies are rapidly growing. Rarely, mild application site reactions may occur, such as scratching, redmess and hairloss, which usually recover within 1-2 weeks without the need for collar removal. In some cases, temporary collar removal and bathing may be recommended until symptoms have disappeared. In very rare cases, application site reactions, such as dermatitis, inflammation, eczema or lesions may occur. In these instances, immediately. If your animal is on medicaiton, consult your veterinarian before using this or any other product.This collar is designed with a release mechanism. In the unlikely event of a dog being trapped, the dog's own strength is sufficient to widen the collar to allow for quick release. Replace the collar after 8 months for optimal tick and flea protection.

It is a violation of federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Do not contaminate feed or food.

Occasionally slight itching may be observed in animals that are not used to wearing collars in the first few days after fitting. ensure that the collar is not fitted too tightly. Slight hair loss and mild skin reactions due to the mechanical irritation of the collar may occur at the application site which usually recover within 1 or 2 weeks without the need for collar removal. For further guidance regarding individual animal sensitivities. In case of loss of collar, a new collar may be applied immediately. Do not attach a leash to the collar as this may cause breakage.

Storage Directions

Keep the collar in the bag and in the outer packaging until use. As with any pesticide product, do not allow small children to play with the collar or reflectors, or to put them into their mouths. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and cold water after fitting the collar. People with sensitivity reactions to the ingredients of the collar should avoid contact with the collar. Choking hazard. Contains small parts. Do not place collar or reflectors in mouth. Not intended for use on humans.

For external use on dogs only. Do not use on other animals. Do not use on puppies under seven weeks of age. Do not get this product in dog's eyes or mouth. As with any product, consult your veterinarian before using this product on debilitated, aged, breeding, pregnant, or nursing animals. Individual sensitivities, while rare, may occur agter using ANY pesticide product for pets.

The Bayer Polymer Matrix System ensures that both active ingredients are slowly and continuously released in low concentrations from the collar towards the animal. This avoids peak concentrations and ensures that concentrations of both active ingredients are present in the dog's haircoat during the entire efficacy period. The active ingredients spread from the site of direct contact over the entire skin surface.

Flea and tick control

Purchased three large collars. Shipping time a little long, but I ordered in advance of needing them. I have unfortunately purchased bogus collars from other sellers online. These collars appear to be the real deal. Time will tell.

April 16, 2024
If you have a good solution, please give me a call. I don’t know what else to do other than to talk to your company. When you pay that much money for a product per animal, it’s kind of upsetting to know that the product is not working like they claim it should, when I first started using Seresto flea and tick collars on my dogs, I felt it was great. But for the past three years it has not helped at all. If you have some advice or a solution please call
Me or text me. My dogs need help. If you care about customer service I hope to hear from your company. I own an Alaskan malamute and a Shih Tzu. Neither of them

Our large dogs love them!
June 27, 2022
When I was asked to do a review an to comment on the collars I purchased for my dogs I knew it was going to be easy. We have been using Seresto dog collars for about 11yrs now an we haven't seen any kind of flea, or tick, not even a mosquito on our dogs! Even when our St. Bernard was a baby an rolled in the dirt, fresh cut grass, or played in the dryer leaves in the fall there wasn't any issue! Or not even wen my German shepherd/Rottweiler mixed breed jumped in our pond an our St. Bernard jumped in after them an got the collars wet we never had a problem! They are wonderful! Please buy this product for your dog they deserve it
Cons
  • The reflectors fall off an dont stay attached to the collars very long.

Best tick and flea protection and related diseases
February 16, 2022
We live in a rural area with lots of wooded and high grass areas and lots of deer with black-legged ticks. I've been using Serosto collars for years, and my dog never had a tick or flea.

I chose Seresto as it kills ticks and fleas before they bite the dog, so no chance of disease transmission. Most other products make animals' blood poisonous and ticks and fleas have to bite to get poisoned and die. Biting allows the transfer of diseases. Also, I do not want poisonous chemicals in my dog's blood.

Love Seresto for my dogs. I always hated the topical treatments that left my dogs feeling greasy. Since being Seresto I have never seen any fleas or ticks on my dogs.

  • No greasy mess, put it on put the sticker on my calendar for reorder and done.
Cons
  • Nothing love this product.

Resilient Fleas Take More "Artillery"
August 17, 2021
It seems like the fleas are tougher every year, so just a flea dip won't do the job of keeping them off the pups. A good shampooing with "herbal" anti-flea shampoo and rinse with a similar dip is good to kill the buggers that are on the pups, but once they are dry, a Seresto Flea Collar will help extend the relief. Seresto collars are sturdy and the buckles don't slip so they stay the right size. They also come with fantastic little reflectors to add on so dusk-'til-dawn walks along the street are even more safe and enjoyable.
Pros
  • easy, hands-off extension of relief from fleas
  • extra reflectors from dark-time safety
  • non-slide buckles to maintain the correct size
Cons
  • not really a "con", but do check with your veterinarian to be sure your pup isn't unusually sensitive to the compound that does the anti-flea job

Protected my dogs in heavy tick infestation
May 19, 2021
Last fall I was fighting a Brown dog ticks infestation indoors. Topicals weren't working to protect my dogs at all. I was pulling dozens of ticks off them daily. Bombing the house and spraying indoors and out. As soon as the collars went on my dogs the ticks around them died. No more ticks latching on to suck their blood. The ticks went away in my house by December. So I thought! They suddenly reappeared or rose from the dead just before Easter. No doubt they went inside the walls or other hiding places to come out again in the spring. My dogs have remained tick free since Nivember when their collars went on. My 17? year old German Shepherd, Zoe passed in March so I will only be ordering two collars this time. I'm grateful that her last few months she was happy and didn't have to be drained by blood sucking parasites or have me constantly pulling ticks off her. Hoping the tick cycle will be broken soon as I am still finding hundreds of dead and live ticks looking to feed. Highly recommend this product. Nothing else worked and I didnt want to use an oral medication.
Pros
  • Works fast, no odor, highly effective in killing ticks. Very safe for use on my 3 senior dogs.
Cons
  • Tired of people saying they can cause neurological issues, etc. Since the negative article came out. I don't even listen to that nonsense. It's still annoying to hear about that.

Seresto Flea & Tick Collar f or small Dogs
December 22, 2020
I have used Seresto Flea& Tick Collars for all my dogs. They have worked very well, and I will always put a Seresto Collar on because I want my precious Pebbles protected. We have deer in our are, and other tic carrying animals. She has never had a tick in her eight years.

The only thing that is hard for me, I am 73, that when I have to take it off her when she goes to be groomers, I have a very hard time pulling it apart. I finally get it out, but it is a real struggle. Other than that, I have peace she is safe and protected.

I started using the Seresto collars 2 years ago as my dog is a Lyme survivor and we live in a heavily populated flea and tick area. We've not had success with other topical treatments. With using Seresto I have found 1 dead flea and 2 dead ticks on my boy - and they were small - they did not bite him! This site gave me a great sale price and shipping rate. It arrived quickly too.

Merchant Response:Lyme is no joke. Thank you for your testimonial, Be safe Ashley

Great flea protection
March 12, 2020
This is the best flea and tick protection!
I used to put the liquids on my dogs necks but didn’t like the idea of the poison absorbing into their bodies. None of my dogs have had fleas or ticks while wearing this collar. And it’s waterproof too.
Pros
  • No chemicals in my dogs bodies
  • And the collar protects for 8 months. You don?t have to remember to give your pet a pill or liquid every month
Cons
  • None!

I wish I had used Seresto collars all along!
November 2, 2019
For the first time ever, this was the first year my two Chinese Shar-Pei pups didn't bring any ticks inside with them! ... Seresto definitely is worth the price. After I put a new Seresto collar on them, I add a reminder/alarm in my iPhone for 8 months in the future and it's that simple! Their veterinarian tightened up the collars on them and reminded me that you should be able to only put 2 fingers between the collar and your pups neck ...
Pros
  • Put the collar on your pet and you're set for EIGHT months!
  • Easy to use, instructions with pictures comes with each collar.
  • Each collar comes with 3-4 reflective snap-ons for the safety of your pet in the evening. Shine a flashlight & you'll find him!
  • Reminder sticker included to put on your calendar when it?s time to change collars.
  • Happy pups = happy mum
  • It WORKS!!
Cons
  • You must follow the guidelines when fitting the collar on your pet. Routinely check the collar because it will stretch a little. May need to adjust fitting.
  • Slight chemical odor e we hen you first open the package ... but it goes away overnight.
