The natural protection of your pet is a priority and it is important that it is guaranteed all year round, not just in the summer season. Flies, horseflies, fleas, mites and insects can unfortunately be vehicles and vectors of serious diseases such as canine leishmaniasis.
It is important to learn to recognize the parasites that can attack your four-legged friend, but above all to prevent them. How to do? In this article you can find all the useful information about it.
Internal and external parasites 
There are two types of parasites: internal ones and external ones. The internal ones nestle in the stomach and can have different sizes. The most frequent are: worms, tapeworms, whipworms, coccidia and giardia. The eggs of intestinal parasites are usually found in the faeces of animals and, as soon as they come into contact with another specimen, they attach themselves in order to infect it.
External parasites, on the other hand, are more common during the warm months, as they proliferate more easily. These are mostly fleas, ticks, mites, lice and mosquitoes which can lead to the development of allergies, skin lesions, itching and diseases.
It is important to add that some parasites can also cause harm to humans . For this reason it is important to avoid their appearance.
Learn to recognize the presence of dog and cat parasites
Internal parasites , such as worms, which are especially dangerous in puppies, as their immune defenses are still poor, can usually cause a swollen belly, diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, fever and weight loss. To be certain of an ongoing infestation, a stool test is usually carried out.
However, in the case of external parasites , in most cases the animal experiences more or less intense itching and, in the case of fleas, it may have residues of feces on its fur. Cats, unlike dogs, tend to lick themselves more assiduously and isolate themselves.
How to defend yourself with natural protection
During the summer season, and not only, pets need to be protected from the attack of dangerous threats such as fleas, ticks, mosquitoes.
Niki Natural Defense products, created with organic Neem Oil , can help you give your pet the necessary coverage, without causing discomfort or adverse reactions at the epidermal level such as itching or burning.
Natural protection: Neem oil
Neem essential oil , extracted from Azadirichta Indica seeds, as a natural protection, is a fantastic adjuvant in the fight against the dangerous enemies of our dogs and cats. Its constant application contributes to creating an unfavorable environment for the settlement of unwanted guests.
The smell of Neem Oil has a fantastic barrier repellent effect and is particularly unpleasant for insects and parasites: once used on the animal's fur or on surfaces with which it often comes into contact (such as kennels, sofas, armchairs) it creates a sort of barrier capable of keeping unwanted guests away from the entire area.
