Another effective remedy to control ticks is to spray a mixture of Ivory liquid and water all over your yard, sidewalks, stockade fences, sides of all buildings -- in other words every surface that is exposed to wherever you keep your dogs. The soap spray actually kills ticks and other insects. I use a mixture of 1/4-1/2 cup per gallon in a hose end sprayer every two weeks.
I learned this from a tick list and have just started using it this spring but those who have used it before swear by it. I have been doing this for about a month and haven't seen a tick on my dogs since I started doing it. Hope this helps.
