Avian Insect Liquidator will control avian mites, lice, biting insects, houseflies, mosquitoes, cockroaches and spiders in the bird’s environment.
Avian Insect Liquidator is an extremely safe but effective insecticide and insect growth regulator for all avian species. When used directly on the bird, Avian Insect Liquidator penetrates into feathers to kill mites and lice. When sprayed around the environment it kills insects on contact and has residual action that guards against re-infestation for up to six weeks.

SCALY MITE IN BUDGERIGARS:
Budgerigars, and many other bird species, can be struck by the burrowing mite (Knemidokoptes ssp.), more commonly known as Scaly Face Mite. In budgies, mostly the head is affected (especially the beak, the cere, and the eyelids). Also the legs and feet can be affected and in really severe cases the area around the bird's vent will show signs of infestation.
There appear to be two species of Knemidocoptes – one on the face, and one on the legs – but for all practical purposes we consider them as one (Scaly Mite) and treat the same.
The Latin name for the so-called scaly mite group is Knemidokoptes (also spelt as Cnemidocoptes).
Scaly Face is a term used for an infestation of burrowing or scaly face mites (Knemidokoptes pilae).
Scaly Leg or tassle foot is often due to Knemidocoptes mutans (Scaly Leg Mite). Both Scaly Face and Scaly Leg mites are invisible to the naked eye.
Knemidokoptes pilae will affect not only the legs but also the beak, the eyes and the area around the vent. In budgerigars, Knemidokoptes pilae affects chiefly the beak. In most cases, an infestation originates there and spreads to the legs and the area around the vent later on.
If an infestation of Knemidokoptes has occurred, the bird affected will experience severe itching if the mites are not limited to the upper mandible.
In the initial stage, an infestation with burrowing mites is hardly visible and hardly affects the general condition of the diseased bird. There are initially crusty plaques in the corners of the beak and on the beak itself.
In the early stages, they have the appearance of a bright white deposit that becomes thicker and crustier over time. The upper mandible becomes increasingly "coral like" since the burrowing mites dig subtle tunnels (paths). In the skin around the eyes, on the legs or around the vent is also affected, this is accompanied by strong itching.
The bird appears restless and is scratching itself perpetually.
If the infestation progresses untreated, serious complications usually occur that are not only extremely painful for the affected bird but often result in its death!
Burrowing mites are transmitted mainly in the nest box during feeding; i.e. during direct body contact from parents unto the chicks. A transmission between adult birds has also been observed, although this rarely happens. Thus special attention should be paid in pairs of birds and flocks if an infection with burrowing mites has occurred! A couple of years can pass between the time of infection and the appearance of first symptoms. In most cases, however, a mite infestation in a budgie occurs between its 6th and 12th month of life; thus often shortly after the bird has been bought.
There are some individuals who are more susceptible to the mite than others… often infestations will follow family lines. There may be some genetic predisposition among birds.
There are many so called "treatments" available for Scaly Mite treatment. These range from Paraffin Oil and Petroleum Jelly to strong disinfectants. Mostly these treatments are designed to suffocate the mite or kill on contact. Older treatments are messy, inconsistent and fiddly to apply.
Technology has now caught up with this disease and Avimec, containing Ivermectin, is now available to treat Knemidocoptes.
Using a simple "drop on" formula the liquid is applied to the bird's skin once weekly for three weeks. Depending on the severity of the disease, cure will take from 3 – 8 weeks as the bird's body repairs the areas of damage.
In breeding facilities, Budgerigars should be treated yearly to control the mite. Even birds that appear unaffected should be treated as they often can carry the mite – ready to spread them on to their young.
Please note: Since burrowing mites only live on the body, it is not necessary to treat the cage with an anti-mite-spray. These agents are usually highly toxic and harm the birds! Burrowing mites are harmless for humans; there is no risk of an infectio

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.
Coccidiosis can result in nutrient malabsorption, dehydration, and blood loss, and make the bird susceptible to secondary infections.
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 aviaries and environments, using a disinfectant such as Vetafarm Avicare, at the same time to help prevent reinfection.
Coccivet should not be mixed with other products.

Directions:
Reconstitute diet using warm water to achieve the desired consistency. An average Short-beaked Echidna (body weight 4kg) generally requires 30g of Vetafarm Complete Echidna Diet mixed with 90-120g of water to meet daily energy requirements.
Vetafarm Complete Echidna Diet can be introduced to puggles by mixing into milk replacer, as soon as they are ready to eat solid food and can be used immediately on adult echidnas being rehabilitated for release. For best results when transitioning an echidna from a previous diet, Vetafarm Complete Echidna Diet should be introduced slowly, decreasing the percentage of the old diet by 10% daily until the echidna is only eating Vetafarm Complete Echidna Diet.

One of the most common consequences of stress, injury, or illness in reptiles is the loss of appetite. In addition to already being unwell, struggling to eat can have further detrimental effects to an animal’s health and interfere with their recovery. Therefore, a highly palatable, nutritious food is required to aid in the stimulation of natural appetite and to ensure that they are receiving the much-needed nutrients for survival.
Vetafarm Ectotherm Booster contains Tasmanian Mutton-bird Oil, a highly palatable energy source, and balanced vitamins and essential amino acids. This formula is rich in the nutrients need for recovery.
In addition to being used as a critical care aid, Ectotherm Booster can be used to help stimulate fussy and juvenile reptiles to eat.
Booster can be given orally via feeding tube, syringe or mixed into food. For best results, warm the dose to the animal's body temperature before administration.
Directions for Use:
Shake well before use. Give the appropriate dose as per below, with each feed or as required.
3mL per 100g bwt for inactive reptiles.
5mL per 100g bwt for slightly active reptiles.
8mL per 100g bwt for stressed or very active reptiles.
Dose orally via feeding tube, syringe or mix into food. For best results, warm the dose to the animal's body temperature before administration.
Storage:
Store below 25°C (air conditioning), in a cool place, away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate (4-8°C) after opening.

Bacteria, fungi, and viruses prosper in warm, moist environments such as reptile enclosures. The growth of these micro-organisms can cause health issues in lizards and snakes. It is highly important to regularly clean enclosures and all the equipment and decorations inside.

Enclosure Clean is a Hospital B Grade disinfectant. It has been used and trusted by veterinarians and clinics for over 30 years.
Although Enclosure Clean is completely safe for snakes and lizards, it is not suitable for any aquatic organisms such as turtles, frogs, or fish.

Remove your reptile from the enclosure before cleaning.
Cleaning: Empty out any residual food/water, spray surfaces with Enclosure Clean, scrub as required, and then rinse.
