    What are you guys using to treat mange. Haven't had it in while. Been using ectospec and spotinor which doesn't seem to cover it, hence we have it now I suppose. Have given them tamazole for the worms.

    A good washing down with Tactic, do it 2-3 times over a 3 week period, use a knapsack sprayer to apply it

    Is Taktic still available? Last time I got some during the summer I was told that it's gone off the market, so I bought the last 2 bottles they had

    Can't seem to get the tactic. But gave the ones outside dectomax alright they look to be more affected. How long before I should see result.? They have it a week now. Pour on
    Those inside don't see to have it but will surely be on the way they only separated a month or so

    Any generic Ivermectin injection or pour-on should treat mange if that's what they have. If not improving take samples of the hair and any scabs and ask your vet to send to the lab or examine microscopically themselves if they like lab work.

    +1 on Dectomax (Doramectin).
    I had one 3 month old weanling here that had bad mange. A lot of his back covered in it. Did them all on Saturday and I noticed the mange is starting to peel off now.
    Never had a case like it before. Must be the weather.
