    Any suggestion on a good pour on for ticks. The hot weather has caused an explosion of the little sh1ts on the mountain. We never had any issue in previous years but found 5 dead hoggets while helping a neighbor round up his animals :(

    Would suggest using Young's Vector Pour-On.
    Not only does it prevent/kill Ticks it also prevents Maggots and will
    kill Maggots in sheep that have not already been treated.

    Ectofly from Bimeda is very effective.
