This 'Insect Shield' line for pets is a new collection of odorless fashions and accessories for canines and felines. The Environmental Protection Agency-approved gear will protect pets from mosquitoes, flies, fleas and ticks.

The collection is an extensive line that includes useful items such as blankets, beds and cots, pens, seat covers, T-shirts and sweaters -- including hoodies, vests and bandanas. The collection's insect bug protection is infused directly into the material of each piece of clothing or pet accessory. The repellent is safe for both animal fur and skin, making it suitable for pets and pet owners.

The 'Insect Shield' line makes protecting pets from pesky bugs simple and affordable. Depending on the item being purchased, this line of pest repellent can cost as little as $10 and will not exceed $150.
