TiCK MiTT by Tick Solutions Global, the 360 degree approach tick solutions company that is on a mission to reduce cases of tick-borne diseases through innovative, chemical-free products, has announced its new, retail partnership with Petco.
Petco will carry an exclusive new teal colored TiCK MiTT in more than 900 stores across the U.S. beginning spring 2026.
The TiCK MiTT is lightweight, reusable, and essential for finding and removing loose ticks off loose clothing, pet fur or skin before they embed, reducing the risk of contracting a tick-borne disease.
Petco is where pets have gone to find everything, they need to live their best lives for more than 60 years — from their favorite meals and toys to trusted supplies and expert support. The company has more than 1,500 locations across the U.S., Mexico and Puerto Rico.
Tick Solutions Global is rooted in personal experience in its mission to help other families and their pets take all the necessary precautions to reduce the risk of a tick bite and tick-borne disease. The company was co-founded by father-daughter duo Olivia Abrams, a Forbes 30 Under 30 for Social Impact and a recent Top Female Founder with Inc. Magazine, and Steve Abrams, who both have had personal struggles with Lyme disease. The company is deeply involved in advocacy efforts with Olivia serving as a board member of Project Lyme and through her involvement with the Center for Lyme Action, where she focuses on education, research funding, and prevention strategies.
“We love our furry friends and are working to take the guess work out of tick protection so you can enjoy time outside without worry,” said Olivia Abrams, CEO and Co-Founder of TiCK MiTT.“Ticks are a threat year-round, but as we head into spring, it’s important to equip your family with the tools they need to stay safe as the number of ER visits for tick bites and the number of cases of Lyme disease surge. Petco has been a trusted household name and go-to for all your pet needs, and we’re honored to partner with them to develop a fun color you can only get at Petco.”
Due to the lack of standardized testing and many inaccurate diagnoses, there are more than 500,000 estimated annual cases of Lyme disease across the U.S. Cases of Lyme continue to rise with rising global temperatures as a result of climate change.
The brand recently launched TiCK SiDEKiCK, a small, multi-functional utility tool the size of a pocket knife that includes precision tweezers for removing embedded ticks along with a built-in flashlight for increased visibility to help families stay tick free day and night.
In 2025, Tick Solutions Global’s TiCK MiTT was featured on the season finale of Shark Tank.
