EPA-approved flea collar correlated with over 2,500 pet deaths: Report

The Seresto flea and tick collar has been linked to 2,500 pet deaths and remains on the market without interference from the Environmental Protection Agency.

A report from the House Committee on Oversight and Reform's Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy was released Thursday prior to a hearing held on the same day. The report found that the collar, developed in 2013, was ranked by the EPA as early as 2015 as the worst among pet pesticide products in terms of deaths and incidents. Some incidents even involved several hundred people. The next product in the ranking had five times fewer deaths and three times fewer incidents.

Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency investigated 251 of the same pet deaths the EPA did and found that 33% were linked to the collar. It concluded that the collar was too risky to be sold in Canada. It also found that "from 2012 through 2015, there were 357 human incidents linked to the Seresto collar." The EPA, on the other hand, found that 45% of the 251 deaths were linked to the collar, but the product remains on store shelves to this day. ............

Likely would have been cheaper to kill them with experimental Pfizer Covid shots.

There's plenty of it laying around.
