Avista - if your babies are on Revolution all year long, why do you have to have blood tests?

Our Vet has informed us Florida is the epicentre of heartworm and it is extremely common. In Canada, our boys are only on heartworm for the six months in the summer. To ensure they didn't catch heartworm when not on the Revolution, they have to have blood tests once every two years. I'n Florida if they are always on Revolution, and if there is no chance of ever catching heartworm, why would they need blood tests?

Also, what Vet do you use? I would like to add the name of a good Vet to our Village telephone diary. Our oldest boy has had operations on both knees. Until recently we had two horses, two cats and two dogs. We have already put the five children of our existing Vet through University. ;D
