WE DO NOT ADVISE TREATING WITHOUT TESTING.
It may be easy to order products and treat reptiles for potential parasite infestations, either to save money or simply because we routinely do it with our cats and dogs, BUT this is not recommended.
Why?
1) Parasitic resistance
2) Adverse or toxic effects
3) Zoonotic risk different to dogs
Studies show that some anti-parasitics can cause adverse effects, including death.
It is strongly recommended that a vet establishes the risk/benefit ratio before medicating.
