    does zanil just do for fluke or is it fluke and worms ? i like the easy way out and would love if there was an injectable for rumen fluke and worms that can be used in milkers - i dont ask for much do I:rolleyes:

    i deknuckled myself yesterday doing a few cows at drying off with an oral dose for fluke and worms , pure hardship , has to be a health and safety issue there since the injectables where withdrawn

    Last year at the co-op there was a sales rep trying to flog a new type of gun that he swore took all the hardship out of drenching. It looked like a big "J". I forget what company it was. He even had a brochure with pictures of girls (:D) drenching bullocks in a crush.

    Our vet reckons something will be worked out for withdrawal periods this year. Dunno.

    Hate that. I keep reminding them, there's only one way out, but some of them just don't get it.
