Guest Fell & Moorland WTC SW area Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Mange is a b*****d and will drag Pups back. Luckily it is contact only, through bedding or physical contact. I use ivomec injectable for any cases of Mange I get. Lots of guys don't use it because Farmers say "it will kill a Collie". That is usually because they use far too big a dose on them! A Terrier only needs around 0.3ml that is 1/3 of a mil, NOT 3mil! It also kills most internal & external parasites, and used in conjunction with a good wide spectrum wormer your dogs will stay in pretty good nic'. It is widely available and a bottle will last a long time, way past 'use by' date. Quote Link to post
Guest trev Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Iver already posted my thoughts on ivomec on another thread somewere else, i wouldnt use it. I find the best you can get is Aludex Quote Link to post

Guest moleman Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 thanks for all the replys lads very much appreciated Quote Link to post
Guest Bull Cross Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Ivomectin isn't a good thing to be injecting into your dog's every few month . Aludex wash is far more safe and can be got from your vet far easier . Be careful with the ivomec Quote Link to post

MickC 1,825 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 personally i would not ever use ivomec again....personally i recommend stronghold... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i use duramitex as it kills most any parasites and can also be used to clean the kennels and runs out.Just dont apply it to the dog neat as it will burn the fur off.The best way to apply it is to put 2 capfulls in a full bucket of warm water and sponge the dog down.For cleaning the runs out etc a stronger mix can be used.

Guest DeeD Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Is it true that ivomec will kill a dog if it has Collie in it? Quote Link to post
