From a previous post asking what type of ivermectin.
The paste is 1.87% ivermectin, which means one ml of the paste has 18.7 mg ivermectin in it.

The math:
pounds divided by 2.2, times 1, divided by 18.7 = number of ml to give.

Examples:
1 pound - 1 / 2.2 x 1 / 18.7 = 0.024 ml
5 pounds - 5 / 2.2 x 1 / 18.7 = 0.012 ml
10 pounds - 1 / 2.2 x 1 / 18.7 = 0.24 ml

Hope this helps.

Hello! I'm very confident that I have it right. But I just wanted to confer with you before I give her meds. Just in case! Since I can't get a 100% accurate weight on her wiggly butt, but I'm sure she's at least 5 lbs (per what the scale could read) and I think not over 10lbs. I'm just going to go with the 5lb dose for a goose.

My question!
I have a 30 unit syringe (0.3ml in the entire thing) Each line marks 0.01ml. Except the very 1st line. It marks empty. id give her to the 12th line in the picture to make 0.012ml, correct? Ty!

Hello With Ivermectin you won't hurt your goose with a little bit too much. I have given that much orally to chickens that weigh 6 to 9 pounds.

Spray peppermint oil everywhere too. It works.

Oh, ty! I do have a mite spray that has different essential oils. Its kept them down, but not gone. I'll see if it has peppermint oil. I'll get it regardless. I so appreciate it!
