Title: Ficam W - treatment for red mite
Post by: Kym503 on August 09, 2010, 16:57

Has anyone used Ficam W as a treatment for Red mite and if so where can you buy single sachets.  Bowen and Knight only sell it by the box of 10 now.

If you have used it - how do you rate it?

Thanks
Kym

Hillfooter uses it and swears by it - he buys it in packs of 10 though.

You need to check - it depends on your animals (hens?), on your use area and any side effects, e.g. it is toxic to ducks, worms, fish and bees and particularly to cats.
