Natural protection for 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 it? In this article you can find all the useful information about it.
Internal and external parasites 
There are two types of parasites: internal and external. Internal parasites nest in the stomach and can be of different sizes. The most common are: worms, tapeworms, whipworms, coccidia and giardia. The eggs of intestinal parasites are usually found in the feces of animals and, as soon as they come into contact with another individual, they attach themselves to infect it.
External parasites, on the other hand, are more common during the warm months, since they proliferate more easily. These are mostly fleas, ticks, mites, lice and mosquitoes that 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 parasites in dogs and cats
Internal parasites , such as worms, which are especially dangerous in puppies, as their immune defenses are still low, can usually cause a swollen belly, diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, fever, and weight loss. To be sure of the infestation, a stool test is usually performed.
In the case of external parasites , in most cases the animal feels more or less intense itching and, in the case of fleas, may have feces residues on the fur. Cats, unlike dogs, tend to lick themselves more assiduously and to 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 Defence 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 the seeds of Azadirichta Indica, as a natural protection, is a fantastic adjuvant in the fight against the dangerous enemies of our dogs and cats. Its constant application helps to create an unfavorable environment for the settlement of unwanted guests.
The smell of Neem Oil has a fantastic barrier repellent effect and is particularly unpleasant to 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.
