Anti tick collars

A braided collar strung with ceramic beads, worn alongside a normal collar. Construction is the same as any other collar; the beads are the only difference.

Construction

A snake knot or cobra worked around a cord that carries the beads, spaced so they lie flat against the coat rather than bunching at the front.

Sizing

The band should sit loosely enough to turn with the coat but not so loose that it catches. Measure the neck and add roughly five centimetres for a medium dog.

What it is

A wearable band with ceramic beads on it. Whether beads of this kind have any effect is disputed and no claim about that is made here; the collar is described as a build, not as a treatment.

Buying

The beads are listed here: EM ceramic beads (https://www.123paracord.co.uk/em-ceramic-anti-tick-beads/).
