Abstract:
Dogs and cats are more infected with ticks, fleas and lice. These infections cause irritation, skin wounds, dermatitis, loss of blood, pruritus, papulo-pustular eruptions, anemia, weakness, and so on. The said mites may inoculate and deliver pathogens such as viruses, rickets, bacteria and protozoa that may cause various diseases or may serve as intermediate hosts for some canine tapeworm species. Fipronil is actively used as a drug in combating of ectoparasites. The company Euro Prame Farmaceuticals LLC, Chisinau, Republic of Moldova has developed, tested and registered the Parakillged product (fipronil 200 mg/ml). Our researches have shown that the Parakillged veterinary product, external antiparasitic suspension has a high efficiency (98.6-100%). Drop application mode of the preparation greatly reduces physical efforts, there is no need for special equipment and does not require aid. The results obtained by us are in line with the results of previously published researches on the efficacy of preparations based on fipronil and used to combat tick, flea and lice populations.
