Rodents

Question
Hi,
I am a Guinea Pig breeder and worm my Piggies with ORAL IVOMEC. At the rate of 0.3ml/kg every 3 months or for mange mites 0.5ml/kg. every 7 to 10 days.
My nephews have began to breed mice and rats I was wondering if you could give me the correct dosage of ORAL IVOMEC for each of these animals for lice and worming.
Kind Regards,
Beth.

Answer
Beth,

I am very sorry but it is illegal for me to prescribe medication without having examined an animal.  Giving doses is considered to be a form of prescribing.  I would recommend you find a good exotic veterinarian and consult with him or her for deworming advice.

I wish I could help you more.
