Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


Our cats recently became outdoor cats. We had been hoping to avoid giving them a systemic poison, like Frontline, for tick and flea prevention. But Prince, soon came home with a collection of ticks on his head and neck.

We were unable to pull them off, so we applied Purification liberally, hoping to prevent him from acquiring more ticks until we could get to the vet the next day. But the vet reported that there were only small scabs where the ticks had been, and recommended that we continue with Purification!

So, Goodbye Frontline, hello Purification! How often? We are not sure, but suspect that if we just keep him sweet-smelling with a drop or two every few days (back of neck or on the inside of his collar) it should do the trick.
