Anti-Flystrike Treatments

Hi,

I'm due to go away for ten days on Thursday and need to find some sort of treatment that I can use on Tsuki to prevent flystrike. My parents will be looking after her, and the rest of the animals but I wish to be doubly confident that she will be safe from flies, even though I know she will be checked. She is indoors and there are probably not likely to be any flies around but I would prefer to be safer than sorry. I can't use sprays as she is in the same room as my frogs who can be killed by insecticidal sprays in the air. Ideally I'd want a product that can be applied directly. Can anyone recommend something please? Thanks :D
 
the vet gave me some rear guard which you dab onto their nether regions and keeps them protected for 10 weeks i think. this should be quite easy to get.
 
Hmm... as you're going away on Thursday there's probably not time to order anything off the internet. Vets sell a product called rearguard which you can put on your bun, think it might be a bit pricy though. But I believe that it's very effective :D :D
 
wow sandy what a beautiful bunny she is, Ive never seen such piercing eyes on a rabbit! and i love her markings and flurry bits, gorgeous :love: :bunny:
