Beaphar Anti-Myiasis (Ivermectin 0.5 mg/ml), skin spray for rabbits and guinea pigs for the prevention and control of Myiasis (maggot disease caused by the blue-green blowfly).
Myiasis in rabbits and guinea pigs is mainly caused by the blue-green blowfly that lays eggs in caked feces, wounds or foul-smelling fur. The maggots from the eggs eat through the skin and can cause blood poisoning or infections, which can kill the animal within 24 hours.
NB! this product kills the eggs and maggots of the fly that causes Myiasis. Not the adult fly. If you notice maggots on the animal, you should contact the vet immediately.
✔ Works against eggs and larvae of the fly that causes maggot disease
✔ Provides 2-3 months of protection
✔ Easy application using a spray bottle
Myiasis is lurking, especially in the spring when temperatures start to rise and the bugs wake up. It depends a bit on the weather, but usually the blue-green blowfly becomes active around April. This will remain active until November. When these flies are active, rabbits are at risk for Myiasis.
Instructions for use and dosage: Remove any feces and ensure good hygiene in the cage. Spray the correct amount (see table) on the back of the animal. Start under the tail / between the hind legs. Then from the tail to the middle of the back. Bathing can reduce the effectiveness of the drug.
Dosage: Body weight in kg | Number of sprays
0.5 - 1.0 | 5
1.0 - 1.5 | 7
1.5 - 3.0 | 9
> 3.0 | 15
During the period that the blue-green blowfly is active, treat monthly (depending on weather conditions, usually April to November). Do not repeat the treatment within 4 weeks.
