How It Works (10-Second Spray Routine)

Shake the bottle, then mist your dog's coat before the backyard, the walk, the beach, or the paddock, working it down into the fur. That is the whole routine.

Reapply every 2 to 4 days, or after a swim or a bath. The cedar and lemongrass blend goes to work on contact. Spraying you and the family before you head out works the same way.

Directions For Use

Dogs, horses & livestock: Lightly mist the coat, including the underbelly, ears, and tail, and massage into the fur. Reapply every 2 to 4 days. Do not use on cats, or on animals under 9 kg.

People: Spray skin and clothing, using your hands to apply to the face while avoiding eyes and mouth.

Home & gear: Spray surfaces, bedding, tents, and packs. Shake well before each use. Not for plants.

Why Cedarwood & Lemongrass (Not DEET)

Most plant sprays are cedar-only. Cedar does real work against ticks, but on its own it is only half the barrier.

We pair it with lemongrass so the two plant oils scramble the scent and heat a tick homes in on, and put a layer up before it ever climbs onto your dog. All without DEET or harsh chemicals, so it stays gentle on your dog, the family, and your gear.

What's In The Box

Your TickGuard Tick Defence spray (118 ml / 4 fl oz), plus any free gifts included with your bundle, such as the Tick Removal Tool. Everything ships ready to use.

30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Try TickGuard for a full 30 days. If you are not happy with how it works for your dog, contact our team for a refund. No hassle.

We're on the Central Coast and paralysis tick season is the worst part of the year for us. I check our kelpie every single night and still used to find them on him. Started spraying him before the yard and every walk and it's been chalk and cheese, one tick in six weeks vs a few a week before. Smells like a kitchen for a minute then it fades. Ordered three more for the shed and the car.

Bought it because the wife wouldn't let it go after the neighbour's dog got a paralysis tick. I spray the staffy before every beach run and paddock walk now. Barely a tick since, and it doesn't wreck his coat or reek of chemicals like the last stuff we tried. Should've started years ago.

Our cavoodle copped a paralysis tick in our own backyard last spring and it scared the absolute daylights out of me, three days at the vet and a bill I don't want to think about. Now I spray her before she goes out, every single time, and the doormat and her bed too. Haven't found one on her since. I'll take smelling a bit like lemongrass over that fear any day of the week.

Authenticity Notice

It has come to our attention that watered-down counterfeit tick sprays are being sold on Amazon under brand names confusingly similar to ours. TickGuard has never authorized any third-party seller. Listings on Amazon claiming to be TickGuard are not us.

Genuine TickGuard, made with cedarwood oil and lemongrass oil at our verified potency, batch-tested every production run, is sold only at TryTickGuard.com.

Your family's protection means knowing exactly what's in the bottle. Don't gamble on a counterfeit. Don't find out you used a watered-down spray after a tick already attached to you, your kid, or your dog.

Protect your Dog from the Paralysis Tick.

The paralysis tick can take a healthy dog down in days, and it's turning up in suburban backyards, not just the bush. Every tablet and collar only works after it bites. TickGuard is the layer before, cedarwood and lemongrass that repel the tick before it ever gets on your dog.

Frequently Asked Questions

1Does cedarwood and lemongrass actually work against ticks?

Yes. Cedarwood oil and lemongrass oil disrupt the receptors ticks use to find a host, scrambling the scent and heat a tick homes in on so it struggles to lock on. TickGuard combines both at real concentrations, not the underdosed amounts in most "natural" sprays.

2Is TickGuard safe for my dog, kids, and the house?

Yes. It is water-based, made only from plant-derived oils, and safe to use on your dog's coat, clothing, exposed skin (children 6 months and up), gear, and surfaces like the doormat and dog bed. Avoid the eyes, nose, and mouth. Do not use on cats, or on animals under 9 kg. Stop use if irritation occurs.

3How long does one bottle last?

For one dog sprayed before walks, a bottle lasts a few weeks. If you spray daily and cover the family and the house too, plan on closer to two weeks. Most owners keep a couple of bottles on hand through paralysis tick season.

4Why is the paralysis tick so dangerous?

The Australian paralysis tick injects a neurotoxin while it feeds. In a dog it can cause progressive paralysis, back legs first, then the chest and breathing, and it can bring a healthy dog undone in a matter of days. It is smaller than a grass seed and hides where your fingers never reach, and it is no longer just a bush problem, it turns up in suburban backyards along the east coast.

5How do I apply TickGuard to my dog?

Shake the bottle. Mist the coat, including the underbelly, ears, and tail, and massage it into the fur down to the skin. Do this before the yard, the walk, the beach, or the paddock. Reapply every 2 to 4 days, or after a swim or a bath. Avoid the eyes, nose, and mouth.

6Can I spray it on my dog or cat?

Yes for dogs. Spray into your hands first, then rub it through the coat, focusing on the collar area, belly, and behind the ears. Do not apply directly to cats, they groom heavily and are more sensitive to essential oils. For cats, spray their bedding and the areas around them instead. Always avoid eyes, nose, and mouth.

7My dog brings ticks into the house. Does spraying him help?

Yes. The dog is the most common way ticks get inside. Misting him before he goes out, and again when he comes back in, cuts down the ticks that hitchhike in on his coat. Add the doormat, the entryway, and his bed and you reduce ticks in the home even further.

8How is this different from DEET or a tick tablet?

A tablet or collar only works after the tick bites, and the toxin goes in while it feeds. TickGuard is the layer before, it repels the tick before it gets on your dog. And unlike DEET, it is plant-based, will not wreck your dog's coat or your gear, and is safe around the family and the house. It is meant to sit alongside your vet's routine, not replace it.

9How long does it last on the coat, clothes, and skin?

On a dog's coat, reapply every 2 to 4 days, sooner after a swim or bath. On clothing, up to 12 hours. On bare skin, 4 to 6 hours, less if you sweat heavily. On doormats and surfaces, 1 to 2 days depending on rain and traffic.

10What if my dog gets a tick anyway?

No repellent is a guarantee, so keep checking your dog daily through tick season and see your vet straight away if you find an engorged tick or notice wobbliness, a weak or changed bark, or trouble breathing. And if you use TickGuard as directed and you are not happy for any reason, email us for a full refund. No forms, no questions.

11Will my dog or my clothes smell like lemongrass forever?

No. The scent settles within 30 to 60 minutes as it dries. Most people describe it as fresh cedar and lemongrass, far easier to live with than DEET.

12When and where do you ship?

We dispatch from within Australia within 1 to 2 business days. Most orders arrive Australia-wide within [X to Y] business days via standard post, with express available at checkout.

Our 30-Day No-Ticks Guarantee

Give it a full 30 days on your dog, before every walk, beach run, and backyard romp. If you're not happy for any reason, send us one email and we refund every dollar. No forms, no questions. Because no dog should come undone from a tick the size of a grass seed.
