No, when wet it looses it's beneficial qualities. It helps keep bugs out of the feed bins, doesn't touch our fire ants.

That dose is too high. The correct dose is the same as on the bottle for other species, which breaks down to be 0.1 ml per 11 pounds, 10 being close enough. 1 ml treats 111 pounds.

Below is what WE use here with all of our birds. I will not give a schedule for giving during the year as each persons climate and conditions are different.
ALWAYS have a fecal test run to know what you are dealing with.
1.) 1/2 cc of the liquid topically on the skin for an adult chicken.
2.) 1 cc. for adult geese, put it between their wings.
when dosing think of it like applying frontline on a dog
So you are saying putting ivermectin on the skin in "armpit" of goose will kill gizzard worms? 1cc half under each wing?
Re-apply a second time? If so after how much time? Last question, are eggs safe to eat--I know they will say don't eat for x days--but wondering if would somehow actually harm a person or dog or if that is just the standard disclaimer?
New to geese and see the best dewormer not available in U.S. So confuaing sorting through deworming--is like no one deworms their fowl and everyone discovering how to do it for first time. /rant.
At any rate ideally am interested in good powdered wormer for their food or a liquid that can be mixed with food (a drench?). Will try the topical if it works on internal worms that way.
ALWAYS have your vet check a fecal sample to see what kind of worms they have if any first.
No sense in deworming if there are no parasites present.
