GENERAL QUESTIONS
How does 0Bug!Zone work?
You actually learned this back in high school biology. 0Bug!Zone® is a proprietary process developed by Melissa Rogers in Austin, Texas. 0Bug!Zone® is a tag with a magnetic strip that works off your body’s bio-energetic field. Starting to sound familiar again? The tag contains frequencies that are specific to the different bugs and pests, and it is those frequencies that disturb the bugs and will keep them away from the body.
How long do the tags work?
0Bug!Zone® tags will last up to 4 months once they are properly attached to a pet or persons energy field. If the tags are stored in a resealable, plastic bag, then you can expect the tags to last up to 2 years.
Why don't the tags last longer?

However, normal wear and tear of the magnetic strip limits the lifespan of 0Bug!Zone® . Just as frequent use of a credit card will cause it to fail before the expiration date the magnetic strips on our tags will naturally break down from daily use. 0Bug!Zone® products typically last up to 4 months, making our tags a great value.
Is there any danger associated with the use of 0Bug!Zone?
Are there any negative side effects? No, unlike all of the other insect repellents on the market today, 0Bug!Zone® does not contain any harmful or toxic chemicals. Also, our tags do not interfere with any treatment modalities that you or your pet may have undergone. And, to answer your second question, there are no ill effects or side effects of any kind for 0Bug!Zone® users.
Do they have to be worn every day?
Yes. 0Bug!Zone® tags will typically start to work after a couple of days, if worn correctly and consistently. A general rule of thumb is the more you wear your tag, the better it will work. Ideally, you will want to wear your tag 24/7.
Can I use 0Bug!Zone on any animal or pet?
Each of our products has a specific function. For example, we have flea and tick tags that work to keep away fleas and ticks, but they will not repel mosquitoes. In the same way, each product is for a specific animal. For example, a dog tag will not work if used on a cat. Remember, the tags work because of the natural energy field created by an animal or person which expands the specific frequency, creating a barrier from insects. Each tag will work on all weights and sizes and is safe for pregnant or lactating animals. Currently, we have tags for people, dogs, cats, horses and cows. We are continually researching and developing new technologies.
Do you have protection from Lice and Mosquitoes for Dogs or Ticks for Horses?
At 0Bug!Zone® we are constantly working to update our technologies. Currently we do not carry lice tags for dogs, but we do offer mosquito tags for dogs. Additionally, at this time, we do not offer tick tags for horses, but keep an eye on our Web site for future developments. Since we are all a family, we want to continue to be able to benefit everybody in all ways possible.
How do I attach the tags?
The package contains a ring that can be attached to your pet’s collar; you are welcome to use your own ring if you have one available. The 0Bug!Zone® tag has a small hole that should be used to attach the tag to the ring. Remember to face the tag towards the body for maximum effectiveness.
Other important things to remember when attaching the tags:
- The magnetic strips should be fully exposed and protected from premature abrasions.
- To ensure that your tags provide you with the maximum protection possible, 0Bug!Zone® should not be placed in areas where they could be bent.
There are a variety of ways to attach the tags to your animal. For the dogs and cats, we advise that you cut one of the tags along the dotted line so that both magnetic strips are exposed (they have 2 holes for this purpose). After you have cut the pet tag along the dotted line, recycle the upper portion, and hang the remaining portion of the tag with the magnetic strip facing your pet. Scratches on the magnetic strips will prematurely wear tags which could render them ineffective.
For active pets that might have trouble keeping the tags from being scratched/bent, we recommend attaching 0Bug!Zone® along the inside of the collar. Be sure that the magnetic strips are completely exposed; do not cover any portion of the magnetic strip. If you have a small dog, cut both tags to fit the animal and place one tag on top of the other. We recommend that you place the biggest problem insect tag closest to the animal.
Can I hang both tags on the same ring?
Yes. We provide a ring for you in the dog and cat packages and you can hang both the flea and the tick tags from the same ring. However, we do recommend that you place the biggest problem insect tag closest to the animal.
How do I care for my tags?
Normal wear and tear can reduce the full effectiveness of the 0Bug!Zone® product. In order to maintain tag effectiveness use a clean, soft, damp cloth to remove the dirt, sweat, and oils that may accumulate.
Why are there two tags in my package?
Some of our packages contain two tags. In our dog and cat combos, there is one for fleas and another for ticks. Horse packages contain flea and mosquito tags. If you choose the outdoor pack, there are tags for mosquitoes, ticks, and chiggers and so on. These tags can be worn individually, or all at the same time.
Remember that the tags work faster and more efficiently when the magnetic strips are facing the body. With your pet or animals (horse, cows,) you must put BOTH tags on them to be effective. Remember, each tag contains a specific frequency to shoo! a specific bug. If you only place the tick tag on your dog, then they will not be protected against fleas. It does not matter that the 2 tags are touching each other. They will work just fine.
Why does it take 24-36 hours to activate the tags? Can it take longer?
Even if your animal is in excellent health, it takes time for the natural energy field to create a frequency barrier against unwanted insects. We know through our focus groups and preliminary trials that this process can take up to 36 hours. Please keep in mind that if an animal has recently had surgery, vaccinations, steroid medication, or has been treated with heavy poison products, it will take longer for your animal to detoxify and strengthen its energy field. It is important to note that, because the tags work with your pet’s energy field, your animal needs to be as healthy as possible before using 0Bug!Zone®. We have found that aging animals, animals that have had surgery, or animals that are taking or have recently taken steroid drugs do not respond well to 0Bug!Zone® products.
