Lice? (Picture)

Thing is.....the 'dog' formula may not match the 'bird' formula..plus dog stuff has other chemicals...like one you quoted has imidacloprid(which a synthetic that mimics nicotine).

I'm not using it. The OP (and some others in the thread) is from Canada and they are having a tough time finding something for pest control due to new government regulations.
I didn't recommend the product and probably wouldn't since all of my dogs have had adverse reactions (different breeds, weights, and different topicals). I only pointed out that "if" they were to use it they would need to take weight into consideration. If that is not how I worded my post, that is what I meant.

Ok, I reread a bit back (as I've been following the thread but sometimes you miss things) - not sure it was being recommended for birds, but again I did state if.

Yeah, I just wanted to add another caution....wasn't aimed at you personally.

Got it. I wouldn't recommend the otc topicals even for dogs.

It wasn't being recommended for birds.

Just to be clear, I was not suggesting using the dog spot on to treat lice and mites and there are two reasons I wouldn't suggest it. One reason is that most of the dog products with permethrin contain more than permethrin and to the best of my knowledge the other ingredients are not used on poultry. The second reason is cost.

I posted earlier this morning before my coffee kicked in. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
