WHY DO I NEED HEARTWORM TESTING?
At early stage you may not notice any visible
symptoms. Without testing you will not know that your pet was already infected
with heartworm until disease has progressed significantly causing serious
damage to heart and lungs. Symptoms are only seen when disease is at advanced
stage. At early stage of infection, only blood test can detect if pet was
already infected with heartworm. Even if your pets is indoor still they can
come in contact with mosquito when going outside only for a short period of
time. In addition mosquito can easily slip inside your house or basements
through small cracks, during opening of doors, windows or screens
