Tell Target and Walmart to Stop Selling Toxic Flea Products
Many of the flea-treatment products we buy for our pets, such as flea collars, contain tetrachlorvinphos (TCVP), a pesticide that can harm our pets and cause irreversible harm to a child’s brain development, increasing the risk of learning disabilities. The products are designed to leave behind chemical residue to kill fleas and ticks, so anyone that touches the pet—or any furniture that the pet has rubbed against—can absorb the dangerous neurotoxin through their skin or get it in their mouth. NRDC has convinced PetSmart and Petco to stop selling products containing TCVP—now it’s time to get these other major retailers on board. Send a message to the CEOs of Walmart and Target urging them to remove these dangerous products from their store shelves and website!
