FAQs

How long does the Bayer Kiltix collar protect my dog?

The Kiltix collar provides up to 7 months of continuous tick and flea protection from the date it's fitted. To get the full 7-month protection, wear it continuously - frequent removal for bathing or swimming reduces the total effective lifespan. Mark the fitting date on the packaging so you know exactly when to replace it.

When does the Kiltix collar start working?

The collar begins releasing its active ingredients immediately after being fitted and opened. Within 1-2 days, the ingredients distribute through your dog's coat and skin oils to cover the entire body. For dogs with a current active tick infestation, your vet may recommend using a knock-down treatment first - such as an anti-tick shampoo - before fitting the collar for ongoing prevention.

Can I use the Kiltix collar alongside a spot-on treatment?

Using multiple topical antiparasitic products simultaneously is generally not recommended without vet guidance, as it can increase the risk of skin reactions and excess active ingredient exposure. If you're transitioning from a spot-on to the collar - or want to use both - speak to your vet first. They'll advise based on your dog's specific situation and tick exposure level.

Is the Kiltix collar safe to use around children?

The collar should not be handled by children. Once fitted on your dog, keep the collar area away from young children who may touch it and put their hands in their mouths. Adults should wash their hands thoroughly after fitting or adjusting the collar. If a child swallows any part of the collar, seek medical attention immediately.

What should I do if my dog chews and swallows part of the collar?

Contact your vet immediately. Propoxur ingestion can cause neurological symptoms - tremors, excessive drooling, uncoordinated movement - that require prompt veterinary attention. Do not wait for symptoms to appear before calling. Take the packaging with you to the vet so they can see the exact composition and quantities involved.

Can I use this collar on my puppy?

The Kiltix collar is safe for puppies from 12 weeks of age. Do not use on puppies younger than this. Check the fit carefully as puppies grow - what fits at 12 weeks may be too tight at 16 weeks. Inspect the fit every 2 weeks in young, fast-growing puppies.

Should I remove the collar before bathing my dog?

Yes - it's recommended. While the collar is water-resistant and will survive light rain and puddle walking, submersion during bathing accelerates the leaching of active ingredients and reduces the total protection lifespan. Remove the collar before bathing, dry your dog's neck area fully, and refit it. This simple habit significantly extends how long each collar lasts.

Is the Kiltix collar suitable for my dog if they swim regularly?

The collar can survive light, incidental water exposure, but is not designed for frequent submersion. For dogs who swim several times a week - whether in pools, rivers, or the sea - the collar's effective lifespan will be significantly shorter than 7 months, and the active ingredients may leach into natural water bodies which can harm aquatic life. For frequently swimming dogs, a monthly spot-on or oral treatment may be a more practical and environmentally responsible choice. Speak to your vet about the best format for your dog's specific lifestyle.
