Why take precautions? Because 10,000 people will get roundworms this year.¹

Children are at high risk because they have a tendency to put dirty fingers and objects in their mouths.


Tips for protecting your family:
  • Use a broad-spectrum heartworm product that also protects year-round against zoonotic parasites.
  • Promptly collect animal feces in your environment
    and dispose of them.
  • Instruct children to wash their hands often.
  • Always wear shoes when outside.
  • Make unprotected sandboxes off-limits to pets and children.
