    Goin doing sheep with Ivomec Classic this Saturday. Was reading the label yesterday and it says 1ml per 50kg which is fine but also says by giving a 2nd round 1 week later it will tackle the mites and lice more effectively.
    My question is are you supposed to give half the dose each week or a full dose each week as it's not stated on pack ?
    Thanks

    Give the full dose on each occasion.The 2nd dose is for the eggs to brake the cycle

    Thanks, one other thing as it my 1st time using this as I usually use a drench. Do you think is a 2nd round necessary as only it said it on box I'd never even have thought about it ?
    Also, is a 3/4 needle the correct length for the job.

    It's great stuff!...I used it this year for 1St time..I'll not go back to drench.. Vet told me to go a little bit heavier on the dose is 1.5 to 1.7 each time...didn't do my lambs any harm!
