Yes vin one can use the pigeon me tin just a few drops more both dogs and ferrite, it's just a far lower dose than straight 1percentivomec these vets have it wrapped up to those not in the know seen a fellow spoke to him 2grand on ta dog lung worm he been. Using frontal no spot on yet they sold mile max that treats for the lung and heart worm and low and behold works out cheaper for lurchers than frontal.
