Cloverleaf Absolute Tortoise Wormer + 5g Parasite Pro Strength Treatment

Cloverleaf Absolute Tortoise Wormer + 5g Parasite Pro Strength Treatment Description

Cloverleaf Absolute Tortoise Wormer + allows you to effectively treat your pet and reduce the stress of a Vet visit.

The Absolute Tortoise Wormer is a Pro Strength flubendazole-based medical treatment that has been developed to keep your Tortoise overall health as a priority. Used by Professionals and Veterinarians, the treatments ensures an efficient protection against Internal Worms and External Parasites.

Worms in a Tortoise can result in unsuccessful hibernation, so controlling these prior to your pet entering hibernation is key to ensure an overall success. When in hibernation, the tortoise natural immunity is compromised and internal parasites like worms and external ticks, can take hold.

The Absolute Tortoise Wormer + will control tapeworms and other helminths, ensure a successful hibernation and will reduce gut parasite burdens

Tropical tortoises only need to be wormed 2-4 times a year, with hibernating species needing to be treated before and after hibernation for a safe recovery.

Directions for Use

Shake the contents of the sachet well, measure out the correct dosage for each tortoise to be treated. This will need to be sprinkled over enough food for one animal, per meal, per day. If you are treating more than one animal at a time, they will need to be separated while being wormed and treated with this product. This can be repeated if necessary for up to 4 days without any ill effect.

It is possible to add this treatment to a lukewarm water bath at the dose of one level scoopful (supplied) per two litres of lukewarm water and mix well. If possible sit the tortoise in the solution so it can lift its head above the water level for 20 minutes.

Please note some tortoises may keep their head under the water for well over five to ten minutes at a time. This is normal and they are merely just drinking, and not drowning as long as the water level is halfway up the body/shell of the animal and they can lift their head up comfortably above the water level.

Dosage

Use 0.3g, or one level 0.5 ml scoop (included) per 2 liters of lukewarm bathing water, or sprinkle over enough food for one meal per animal to be treated. It is a good idea to gently mist warm water over any food to be treated, to make the powdered medication ‘sticks’ to the food and be consumed by the tortoise being treated.

This is the best way of administering this treatment. This treatment can be safely re-dosed again if a second treatment is necessary for heavy infestations.

The correct dosage to cover all weights of tortoises are per animal:

25 grams to 250 grams = 1 x Level blue scoop

251 grams to 2.5 kg = 2 x Level blue scoops

2.5 kg and over = 3 x Level blue scoops
