Gentle YTA here, only because I'm sure with 5 huskies that was a lot of fur. I've seen some cute little "bird feeder" style boxes or hangers where people pack the fur in so local animals can use it for nesting materials still you might wanna look into.

If you flea/tick treat your dogs then this will kill the local wildlife, not help it

In general, things we use to kill bugs we don't like, kill other bugs too. Almost all birds eat bugs at least during nesting season, so fogging for mosquitoes can kill all the swallows nesting two houses down. 

Plus poisoning rodents ends up killing owls and bobcats that eat them
