Ivomec:
2 sizes available with a " Drip Top Applicator Bottle"
3cc:
Size treats aprox 20 to 30 birds
6cc:
Size treats aprox 50 to 60 birds
Ivomec will rid your birds
of any air sac mites, most worms and many other internal and external parasites
such as blood sucking lice and mites. There
is some speculation amongst professional breeders that this medication
“Ivomec” may cause temporary sterility in birds so just to be sure this does
not affect our breeding season, we treat our birds once a year during the first
week of January to give them a full 4 months to clear out any residuals of the
medication from their systems prior to breeding our birds.
DOSE:
Treatment is 1 drop of Ivomec under the wing
on exposed skin or on the back of the
neck just below the head, directly on the skin.
Blow lightly on either spot to expose skin through the feathers.
If there is not a patch of
skin exposed, gently blow with your mouth on the feathers close to expose some skin for application.
If you are not comfortable with lifting your bird’s wing and would
prefer to apply the Ivomec in a different area, you may do the same (soft
blowing) of the feathers just below the base of the skull on the back of
the neck to expose some skin and apply 1 drop directly to the skin.
The Ivomec will be absorbed through the skin.
Ivomec (Flock) Water Treatment
–
Suggested by some Avian Veterinarians
Directions: Shake the Ivermectin solution
well. Follow directions
closely! Do not get on your skin.
Ivomec is absorbed through the skin.
Use caution. Do not exceed
the recommended dose.
Add lcc of the 1% Ivermectin solution to each
32 oz. (1 Quart) of drinking water. Again, shake the mixture well.
Remove all water the evening prior to
treatment, (at sunset if your birds are housed outdoors or prior to turning off
the lights if they are indoors). You
should clean and sterilize their water container prior to treatment. Present the
Ivomec solution to your birds early the next morning.
The birds will usually drink the solution with gusto. One good drink
should cure the above mentioned problems however I leave the Ivermec solution
for the remainder of the day to be sure all the birds in the cage or loft are
treated.
In temperatures over 80 degrees we suggest you
only present the ivomec solution to your birds for "HALF - 1/2 Day" as
the birds will drink more water in warmer conditions.
Repeat the same treatment in two weeks. (14
days) Treat all birds with the above
mentioned method twice a year if necessary. Once in January or 60 to 90 days
prior to breeding, and again at the end of the breeding season if necessary.
Never treat your birds during breeding season
with Ivomec!
Be very careful, Ivermectin is a very powerful
parasiticide. An overdose may kill your birds. Follow the above
instructions very careful.
Use to cure infestation of external parasites,
such as scaly legs and feet, scaly faces, lice, mites, air-sac mites - tracheal
mite, perhaps many types of intestinal worms…
Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after application.
It is not recommended to use other medications together with this product
therefore it should only be administered separately.
After treating your birds with Ivomec wait about 2 weeks before other
treatments are implemented.
