In summer, grass mites lurk in many meadows with tall grasses. The tiny reddish-yellow pests can cause a lot of trouble for your four-legged friend.

To get rid of the parasites, you can bathe your dog with an anti-mite shampoo. There are also special sprays with essential oils that ensure that the insects leave the animal. You can treat a very severe infestation with special insecticides. So-called acaricides are neurotoxins that attack the nervous system of parasites.
