Important Information
Fleas rise to the top of your pet's coat as they die, so consider it a triumph if you start seeing more fleas at first, after treating your pet. If you’re still seeing fleas after application, it may be because your pet has picked up new fleas from the environment, which may include other pets, surfaces and outdoor areas. It may take up to 30 days to break the entire flea life cycle. Additionally, you should also treat sources of new fleas (i.e., carpet, yard, etc.) to ensure complete flea control.

Active Ingredients: Flumethrin 4.5%, Imidacloprid 10.0%.
Use only one collar per animal. Fit collar around your pet's neck, allowing for 2 fingers to fit between the collar and your pet's neck to ensure a comfortable, yet snug, fit. Once collar is properly fitted, cut off any excess collar measuring 1" or longer. The collar should be worn continuously for the 8 month protection period. Check periodically and adjust fit if necessary, especially when puppies are rapidly growing. Keep the collar in the bag and in the outer packaging until use. Replace the collar after 8 months for optimal tick and flea protection.
Water Resistance: It is unnecessary to remove the collar before immersing your pet in water. Seresto remains effective following a shampoo treatment, swimming or exposure to rain or sunlight. In order to maintain an 8 month duration, pets must not be bathed more than once a month. For pets that swim once a month or more, the control duration is reduced to five months for fleas and seven months for ticks.

I have never had a flea problem before. Where are my pets picking up fleas?
Fleas are very hardy pests that are quite capable of hitching rides on a variety of mammals. Wild animals or feral pets traveling through the environment may be a source for a pet’s exposure. Fleas may be brought to the house by:
- You – attached to clothing, luggage, dog blankets, etc.
- Your pet – any time your pet steps outside your house, they are potentially exposed to fleas, especially in areas where there are other animals.
- Stray or homeless cats and dogs – since these animals are not being cared for, they are easy targets for fleas. A single feral cat walking through your back yard even just one time may drop many flea eggs into the grass or under shrubs.
- Wildlife – particularly raccoons and opossums. These animals typically aren’t seen very often, because they are active at night. A single opossum can carry as many as 1,000 adult fleas! An opossum walking through your back yard even just one time can drop many flea eggs into the grass or under shrubs as they pass through.
- Non-treated pets in the household – most dogs are treated for fleas and ticks. Often, the cats in the household are not, especially if they are indoor only cats.
- Non-treated pets in the neighborhood – you may be vigilant about treating your pets for fleas, but your neighbor(s) may not.
What are the benefits of Seresto?
With its innovative delivery system, Seresto offers a breakthrough in flea and tick protection for dogs or cats for eight months.Features and benefits:
- For dogs or cats.
- Kills fleas.
- Repels and kills ticks. If a tick is repelled, it cannot attach and transmit disease-causing organisms.
- Non-greasy, odorless, easy-to-use.
How does Seresto work?
Inside the unique polymer matrix of Seresto are two active ingredients:
- Imidacloprid has been used in products for years to control flea infestations.
- Flumethrin effectively repels and kills ticks.Flumethrin works together with imidacloprid to provide dual action against fleas and ticks. No other treatment has this combination of ingredients.The active ingredients spread from the site of direct contact over the skin surface of the cat or dog.Sustained release technologySeresto works similarly to a monthly topical, but as the active ingredients wear off over time, a new supply is continuously replenished in low concentrations. The active ingredients spread from the site of direct contact over the skin surface.Bayer's polymer matrix technology is designed to slowly and continuously release the active ingredients for eight months, a duration that makes it clearly different from other flea and tick collars.
What if my cat or small dog gets stuck while wearing a Seresto collar?
Because some pet owners may be concerned that a cat or small dog could get stuck while wearing a collar, Seresto is designed with a safety release mechanism. In the unlikely event of the cat being trapped, the cat's own strength is sufficient to widen the collar to allow for quick release. A hard pull causes the ratchet-release mechanism to allow a widening of the collar. The small dog and cat collars are equipped with a predetermined breaking point. A harder pull triggers the breaking of the collar at this point.
- If your cat is not used to collars.
- Rarely, mild application site reactions may occur such as scratching, redness and hair loss, which usually recover within 1 to 2 weeks without the need for collar removal. In some cases, temporary collar removal and bathing may be recommended until symptoms have disappeared. In very rare cases, application site reactions such as dermatitis, inflammation, eczema or lesions may occur. In these instances, collar removal is recommended. If signs persist or become more severe, consult a veterinarian immediately.
What is the expiration date for Seresto for cats?
There is no expiration date required on the packaging by the EPA for this product. The product should be kept in its original packaging and stored as directed on the label.
How do I store and dispose of Seresto?
Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
- Storage: Store in original unopened container in a cool, dry place that is inaccessible to children.
- Disposal: Dispose of container, pouch and expired collar in trash.

Continuous Release for Long-Lasting Prevention
With Seresto, fleas and ticks are killed through contact, with no biting required.

Awesome Collars
By Genevieve on Sep 23, 2021
We've used these for a few years now because the topical treatments only work for about 2 weeks and my moms senior cat had become allergic to all the topical flea treatments available. Our vet recommended these and we've got all of our animals on them. They're easy to use and effective. My only complaint is Ive had to cut two of Scamper's collars off when time to change them but considering they last 8 months and after putting them on we leave them alone thats not too big a deal. They definitely keep our pets flea free so its totally worth it.

Changed formula? Don’t work! FLEAS
By Stephany on Sep 12, 2021
I’ve bought Seresto collars for years with great success until this last batch. We have five pets and have never had issues. I have three cats who are indoors only and two dogs who go out only to potty and play for maybe twenty minutes. These collars aren’t cheap but they’ve been worth it to me until now. Everyone has gotten a new collar in the last couple months and for some reason they all have FLEAS! And as you know, fleas are hard to get rid of and require so many steps to treat. It’s a pain and embarrassing. These things are close to sixty dollars a pop and I’ve bought five recently. I want my money back! I know this isn’t Chewy’s fault or anyone’s but the manufacturer.

I bought two from Chewy and the rest from another large pet store chain when we were in a pinch and couldn’t wait for delivery so I know it’s the manufacturer. Guess I’ll have to start using drops. So disappointing as I’ve raved about Seresto collars to everyone who asked for years because they were easy, effective and I didn’t need to treat everyone for nearly eight months. Reading other customer reviews I see I’m not alone and they must’ve changed their formula. Refund please! … more

thumbs up flea collar
By collar1 on Sep 5, 2021
I purchased as step #2 for my efforts of flea removal I was pleasantly surprised this flea collar does not have an odor and my cats does not mind wearing it. Do recommend that if using the reflectors included with the collar that you check the size first before placing them. I have 2 cats I got one measuring from The correct end but the other one was switched side. They are indoor cats so it wasn’t quite an issue. They just look really cute like sparkly diamonds on my black cats. So far no fleas appearing around their faces

looks good, haven't used yet per vet kitten has no fleas
By kdsmom on Sep 8, 2021
This was highly recommended by my neighbor who has a cat that goes out in the day and sleeps at home at night. My kitten was a throw away who I took in as my first kitten ever in the house. I haven't put it on him yet since the vet found no fleas or ticks on him and he stays full time in the house. He's only about 6 months old. I hesitated to put a flea color on him with him with no fleas per the vet.

Got stuck on my cats jaw!
By page on Aug 11, 2021
I ordered this for both of my cats (12 lb female, 20 lb male) because they HATE topical flea treatments. They are both used to wearing collars, however after about a month of my female wearing it, I came home to find that she had gotten the lower part of her jaw stuck in between the collar and her neck. While I understand this could have been an error on my part (fastening it too loose), it was still scary and should be something to watch out for. As for my male, he lost a good amount of fur around where the collar was. I waited 2 months, as the instructions said this could happen but it should correct itself, and his hair had not grown back and the area was irritated.

I never had an issue with fleas (was using this as a preventative measure), so I can’t say whether the product was effective or not. But they do go out on the patio and we have a dog that’s also on flea prevention. … more

They are working!
By CCat on Aug 16, 2021
I’ve never had a flea issue. I am very careful to make sure the spot on prevent is put on every three weeks. It was like putting water on my two indoor cats and dog. The dog likes to potty in leaf litter where the feral colony I have TNR’d sleep. I have had fleas everywhere!!! I was worried as my 18 lb ten year old cats is very sensitive and has had seizures with some vet prescribed products. Neither cat had ever worn a collar. I sprayed the house, garage, and yard before going out of town. I put their collars on after I picked them up from the kennel. I found a few fleas for a couple of days. Then nothing. I am very pleased. The kitty boys don’t mind the collar either.

Quality Flea Protection
By MeowMom on Aug 21, 2021
This collar is a lifesaver for our cats. They were miserable with fleas, nothing worked, tried baths, powders, other collars (which they were terrified of), one drop product (which almost killed our oldest cat), after vet saw her and treated her she is now well. Vet recommended Seresto, the collar is light weight, very effective, within 12 hours fleas were dying. My cats are now free of fleas, they keep the collar on with no problem and are very happy!!! I am also, no fleas in the floor jumping on our feet. Worth the price!!!

It works! Save money!
By Kkay on Aug 7, 2021
I have 3 indoor/outdoor cats.Every spring I would get ready for "the flea battle". I would buy frontline,house spray(from vet so it might work),cap star,and extra flea combs.Buying frontline every month and still not getting results was quite expensive.2years ago,mid summer,I spent the money for three seresto collars,not expecting much,since I was already fighting them.In 2 days,NO fleas on them or in the house even tho' they still go in and out!!Hallelujah!!!I'm allergic to the flea bites,no bites on me either.I start every year with Seresto.Thank you so much!Sharon,Skeet,Maggie and Jedidiah

terrible product
By Laren on Sep 18, 2021
I have had this collar on my cat for 2 weeks now. I just bought a flea comb and combed my cat. There were a few fleas every where on my cat but right around the collar is where there were many! I couldn't believe it. This product is just terrible.
