What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing claims use on puppies from 12 weeks, while its age-range field says "All Life Stages". It names eucalyptus and lemongrass among plant ingredients in promotional copy, but the active-ingredient field instead lists clove oil, citronella and peppermint oil. The volume is given as both 500.0 millilitre and 20.8 Fluid Ounces. Confirm the product label and directions for the bottle supplied, especially for use on young dogs and household surfaces.

Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Dog owners seeking a spray listed for both a dog's coat and commonly treated home surfaces.
- Buyers who prefer a spray with plant-derived oils and a citronella scent.
Less suited to
- Buyers who need consistently reported flea-control results or predictable effects on itching, as customer feedback is mixed.
- Anyone needing a product for puppies younger than 12 weeks, which the listing does not recommend.

Customer feedback highlights the scent positively, but reports on effectiveness and value are mixed. Some customers say the spray works, while others find it ineffective. Experiences with skin irritation also differ, with reports ranging from less scratching to increased itching. This matters because the product is listed for both dog coats and home surfaces, but the feedback does not establish reliable results or a consistent skin response.
Positive themes
- Customers report a pleasant scent.
Mixed feedback
- Customers disagree about effectiveness and value for money.
- Reported effects on skin irritation vary, from less scratching to intensified itching.
