First: The tape does the job one hundred percent !!! The only shortcoming is that it stinks of violent chemical mace. The smell can but after after 2-3 weeks - but the effects are still outstanding; my cat's outdoor cat and here in the Swabian Alb there are ticks without end, but thanks to the collar only - if at all - dead and yet bloodless in fur are found hanging. I had last summer a necklace from another brand - it almost did not smell, but it seemed not at all well. Then I prefer the short odors in purchasing and have otherwise no problems more !!!
