Summer’s Around the Corner: Why Now is the Best Time to Protect Your Pet from Ticks


With summer on the horizon, everyone’s looking forward to longer walks and lazy days in the sun. But with the warmer weather comes one tiny menace that can ruin all the fun—paralysis ticks. These little creatures can pack a big punch, so now’s the time to get ahead of the game.


Paralysis ticks thrive in Brisbane’s heat, especially in bushy or grassy areas, waiting for their next victim. The problem? It only takes one bite to put your pet’s life at serious risk. The tick’s toxin can cause paralysis, breathing difficulties, and, if left untreated, death. Scary stuff.


But don’t worry, prevention is easier than you think! Regularly checking your pet for ticks is crucial, but there’s a more foolproof way to keep them protected. The Bravecto Quantum yearly tick and flea injection is a simple and highly effective way to shield your pet from these nasties. One shot and they’re covered for the whole year. It’s easy, it’s safe, and it means fewer vet visits and less worry.


We all want to be outdoors more, especially with our pets during the summer. And while the risk of ticks is real, a little preparation means more time for fun and less time stressing. If you’re like me, peace of mind knowing your pet is safe is priceless.


Is your pet ready for tick season? It’s the perfect time to set them up with year-round protection. Why not look into the Bravecto Quantum injection and save yourself the headache of constant treatments? It’s one small step that means big protection. Want to know more?
