What products do you all think is the best for Lice? Thanks in Advance.
Do you know which Dog shampoo you used. We have a heifer with a little place where hair has come off. It hasn't go any worse in the last few weeks, but wanted to use the shampoo just to be safe.texas111 said:If the lice is on your show project and you are worried about withdrawl time you can use dog shampoo. Medicated flea and tick shampoo has perethrum in it and will kill the lice dead on the spot. you usually need to let it soak for about ten to fifteen minutes. We had a problem last year right before houston with lice. we used the dog shampoo and its a good thing we did because we got 2nd place in the lightwieght chi class. That requires drug testing, and we passed. good luck to you happy lice killing.

Most Flea & Tick shampoos will have Pyrethrins in them. Look for this in the ingredients. Be sure and wash the whole calf in it and not just the area where it lost the hair.farmermom said:Do you know which Dog shampoo you used. We have a heifer with a little place where hair has come off.
