Equispot/Tick treatment

[MartysMom]

Hi everyone - we've had really good luck with Equispot drop-on permethrin for ticks with our big horses. I was looking to see if we could use it for a mini but the directions I see online say not for ponies, minis, or donkeys. Does anyone use anything similar on their small ones? Marty's had several ticks already and Lyme is endemic here.

Thanks!

p.s. Here's a photo of the little bugger coming out of sedation from his dental work the other day

I use freedom 45, which is a similar product. I actually didn't read the directions so I can't say if I can use it on minis or not, but I have been....I use half of it, not the whole tube.

Thanks - I see our Tractor Supply has that, I'll look for it.
