Will garlic kill heartworms in people?
I have never heard of humans getting heartworms, just dogs and cats & other mammals, but I do KNOW that GARLIC would not kill them. If a dog is infected, then the Vet would use an arsenic type of poison to get rid of the adult heartworms. I do believe they use something milder or different nowadays. If you have a dog or cat, best to have them checked first to make sure they are heartworm negative by your Veterinarian, then put them on a heartworm preventative once a month year around. Mosquitoes are the intermediate host, in other words they are the ones who pass on the heartworm from dog to dog or cat to cat.
Can a cat give Pasteurella multocida to another cat and how?

How many dogs die each year because of heartworms?
We are unsure of the exact number because a) many stray dogs die of heartworm disease each year and b) even dogs who have owners die mysteriously at home and the exact cause is never known. The only way to keep your dog safe is to administer a monthly heartworm preventative to your dog. Ask your veterinarian which one he/she recommends, but some common ones are Sentinel, Interceptor, Heartgard, and Advantage Multi. Also, for you cat owners, don't forget about your furry four-legged friend. Cats get heartworm disease too, and because there is currently NO treatment for heartworm disease in cats, it is even more important for them to receive monthly preventative. Ask your veterinarian about using monthly Revolution for your cat.
