For the treatment of Coccidiosis, a parasitic disease of the intestinal tract of birds caused by a protoan parasite known as Coccidia. Protozoa are transmitted through the faeces, where they can remain dormant in the environment for up to 12 months. During hot, damp conditions the protozoa become active and infect birds when ingested.
Coccidiosis can result in nutrient malabsorption, dehydration, and blood loss, and make the bird susceptible to secondary infections.
Coccivet is a safe and effective Coccidiosis treatment for use in pigeons and ornamental birds.
With a dual active formulation Coccivet safely and efficiently clears infection over a 7-day course of treatment.
Coccivet has much better activity against parasites than sulphur treatments and may be prepared as a flock dose for large numbers of birds or singular and small aviary dose.
When treating for coccidiosis it is important to thoroughly clean all cages and environments, using a disinfectant such as Avicare, at the same time to help prevent reinfection.
