Ear mites scourge!

I can no longer get any ivermectin at our local tractor supply store. This is wrong and very frustrating.

Aarrgh! I was hoping that it wouldn't happen. It hasn't happened here, but things like this spread when unchecked. Guess I'll stock up a bit on it and get enough for a year or two so things will have time to mellow out again.

Are there any feed stores other than Tractor supply in your area?

There is a very small agway nearby. I thought I would check with them this week, assuming they are open.

when I give horse wormer paste I put a wee bit on the end of a popsicle stick and pop it in their mouth. I rub it on their inner cheek. They lick it off and then 10 days I do it again.

I use a mixture of olive (or mineral) oil, cider vinegar, and tea tree oil.
squirt into both ears and massage 1x/day for 5+ days
Seems to do the trick
