On this page we describe how to make an anti tick collar with EM ceramics.
For this knot you will need 5 CM of cord per 1CM of strap. We are using an adjustable collar of about 20 cm and have used three pieces of cord of 110CM. For larger collars you need of course more cord and EM ceramic beads.
For the collar below you need in total:
3X 110CM paracord type 3
7X EM ceramic beads
2X Dog paw beads
1X Cord stopper
Step 1
Tie a knot in your cord and make sure that the middle colour is the one on which the EM beads will be placed.
Step 2
Slide the first bead over the first cord
Step 3
Now tie the knot as shown above
Step 4
Now slide the second bead over the middle cord and repeat the above steps.
Step 5
Once you have finished tying, tie a knot at the end like the one you started with.
Step 6
Now we will start the finishing touches. Cut one of the outer threads on each side close to the knot.
Step 7
Now burn the wire you have just cut so that it cannot fray.
Step 8
Now we need to add the beads, these have a small diameter so they sit tightly on the wire. Pull the core wires of the last +-4CM out of the outer jacket
Step 9
Cut the core wires.
Step 10
Slide the cord stopper and bead over the two wires
Step 11
Make a knot at the end and fuse it in place, do this for both sides.
Step 12
The tick and flea repellent dog collar is now finished!
