I am so happy to see that I'm not the only one that talks to myself lol.
 
Going to tsc this weekend. Can't you get safeguard there? If so how much is it and is there a certain kind to get? Figured I'd pick some up if it's not to much just to have on hand.

At least I'm not as bad as my dad. He was under the house one day and heard a rattling spraying sound. Looked in the direction of the sound with his flashlight and seen two rattlesnakes. Tore his head up to get out from under the house. Immediately goes in the house to get his 12gauge loaded with buckshot. Gets back under the house, spots the snakes, and fires a round. After one shot he hears more hissing. Panics. Thinking he's surrounded by rattlers, he starts unloading everywhere he heats a sound. When it's all over. He pulls out 2 rattlesnakes (that he shot first) and all the plumbing under the house. Turns out when he shot the two snakes, some of the pellets hit one of the water lines causing the water to spray out making a hissing sound. So I guess when he heard it after he shot the first time, he figure there must have been hundreds of them under there. He said with every shot, sounded like more and more snakes surrounding him.

Wow....talk about panic! But I can certainly understand how easy this would be to do! Once you are convinced you are surrounded by snakes, you are going to shoot! Ha!

You can get the paste or the liquid. Safeguard Equine Paste or Safeguard Liquid Goat Wormer. Both are the same stuff.

The liquid works better but the paste works too. Liquid is given via syringe no needle, 1/2ml down the throat and the paste can be put on a tiny piece of bread, a pea sized dolup.

For big infestations, you will want the liquid and should be given for at least 3 days and up to 5 for really impacted birds.
