"We read the labels so you don't have to."
Our Story

We read the label. Then we built something better.

PetFolk exists for the pet parents who think about what goes on their animals — not just what goes in them. We started with one question: why do flea collars need to contain the same chemicals as pesticides?

The answer is: they don't. Plant-derived essential oils — citronella, cedar, peppermint, clove, geraniol — have been repelling insects for centuries. We sourced the best natural protection products we could find, wrote honest copy about what's inside, and built PetFolk around that philosophy.

Clean ingredients. No compromise. For the ones you love most.

Ingredients we're proud to list.

Citronella Cymbopogon nardus

A well-studied natural repellent that masks CO₂ and lactic acid signals ticks use to locate hosts.

Cedar Cedrus atlantica

Cedar oil interferes with pheromone receptors in ticks and fleas, disorienting and repelling them on contact.

Peppermint Mentha × piperita

Menthol overwhelms sensory pathways in insects, acting as a powerful aversive without harming your pet.

Clove Eugenia caryophyllata

Eugenol, clove oil's active compound, has documented insect-repelling and mild insecticidal properties.
