Ivermectin for the control of swine scabies: Relative values of prefarrowing treatment of sows and weaning treatment of pigs

1983

Courtney, C.H. | Ingalls, W.L. | Stitzlein, S.L.

Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis, ivermectin, single treatment of infected sows before farrowing eliminated scabies from sows and prevented its transmission to their offspring, offspring remained uninfected throughout study regardless of whether they were treated with ivermectin at weaning, infection (epizootic) in growing pigs could be controlled by single treatment of all in-contact pigs but routine treatment of all pigs at weaning does not seem justified
