| dcterms.description | A new formula for an acaricide for cattle, sheep, goats and pigs is offered by A Lanwo, Principal Animal Health Technologist, Veterinary Clinic, PO Box 620, Ondo, Nigeria. 'Two years ago, due to the very high cost and non-availability of effective parasiticides in my clinic to treat mange infestations, I tried to develop a simple alternative which turned out to be very effective and cheap. The recipe comprises: 1 litre of diesel oil, or PK or GN oil; 15 grams of camphor (about ten small balls) and 2 to 3 ml of Diazinon or Asuntol solution. The method: grind the camphor to a smooth powder, and add to the oil and Diazinon. Shake well, then paint the solution on the affected parts with a painting brush. There is no need for scrubbing as the camphor is a good rubefacient. I encourage Spore readers to use the formula and to send me feed back.' | en |
