[Gpdd] [BEHAVIOR] introductions and lice- Flaco-Paco

[Penny Charlesworth]

Glad you liked the Barmy4boars website! I came across a link to it when 
researching the Osteodystrophy in Satins study.

I have used Advantage in the past to dispose of lice but have only given it 
to adult piggies although at 6 months, Flaco-Paco will be getting pretty big 
( from his name I guess that you are a South Park fan ).

Now I always use a shampoo ( Vet-Sect ) but know from previous GPDDs that 
this doesn't seem to be available in the US. Can you buy Seleen shampoo? It 
is messier to use but effective against lice. Maybe someone can recommend an 
anti-parasite shampoo that you can buy.

Regards,

Penny and the Piggyfriends.
